Pros

Good pay benefits retirement even severence. Work is not overly difficult and you are normally left to do your own thing but there are metrics on you. They dont overly affect you even if you dont meet goals however.

Cons

The company only cares about money since that is all the shareholders care about. Zero concern for employees. Forced ot although limited to 8 a week. Constant force reductions and the company is being made juicy everywhere just to sell off to other companies as verizon has no interest anymore in landline division. Wireless is the only thing they care about anymore.

Pros

The salary and benefits are truly fantastic, especially the health and 401K benefits.

Cons

I am in Enterprise Sales, but do not really get a chance to sell anything because I am leashed to a desk constantly updating my activities in salesforce.com. Management, especially the senior management, refuse to acknowledge that we just plain suck at delivering services. Revenue is in a steady decline month-over-month, quarter-over-quarter and the leadership simply has no idea what they're doing. Prepare to have to answer to sales and financial operation wonks constantly who have no skin in the game but think they know what they are doing. Hopefully you like doing a ton of administrative work and figuring things out on your own because that's about all you'll be doing. Have thick skin because your clients will absolutely beat the snot out of you. You a fan of flavor-of-the-month selling? If so, you'll love it here! Management things large enterprise clients purchase cloud or security services like some Chuckie ordering tacos at Taco Bell!
