Pros

Where else can you work from home full time with an awesome salary & great benefits? 20+ years here Having started in NY Telephone and working through the NYNEX, Bell Atlantic & Verizon days as well as striking out on my own for a while, I've found that Verizon is the place I want to be. I've had good & bad managers over the years (some very bad), but my current group is truly fantastic to work with/for. I feel like a valued member of the team... but even with that I still do not feel safe from the CONS listed below......

Cons

The ever present threat of layoffs has made looking over your shoulder and worrying about job security has made it very difficult to have peace of mind. It's clear that the folks laid off are not always "the bad ones"... many times it simply comes down to dollars and cents. In 2015 so far, I'm aware of 8-10 current & former coworkers laid off from different departments.... one with 20+ years of service another with 30+
