Pros

Verizon offers fantastic professional development and tuition reimbursement if you are an associate. You have the opportunity to learn the latest and greatest broadband technologies.

Cons

The downsides are: Union-does nothing to protect jobs and does not promote professional development. Company- Most promotions are based on favoritism even though you go through the horrible situational interviews. Only about a third of the management really understands what it takes to run an organization.

Pros

Verizon Wireless does use cutting edge technology for their application development. People working there are very nice. salary is competitive.

Cons

Projects seemed to be understaffed. You may need to work 10+ hour days consistently and possibly weekends to meet the deadline. Many departments are like this too.

Pros

Great benefits but working in a call center is tough. Strict guidelines, no time to explore other areas of company due the the fact you are attached to your headset.

Cons

How many times can I type Micromanagement? 1 min of being "signed out" of your headset you will have your supervisor, resource management, and directors looking for you.
