      Outside sales is better at Verizon...

      Pros

      What you're paid. In the industry compared to other companies, they pay really well, especially for the location. The benefits are great as well. To be honest, I really enjoyed working with the employees who were on the front lines. It's a hard company to get into, so if you're wanting to go into another area, sales may be the best start.

      Cons

      The management is terrible for the most part. The good managers are grossly outnumbered by the dimwits. The only thing worse than most of the store managers are the district managers.

      The good and bad balance.

      Pros

      Ease of schedule and lack of stress. I was given the opportunity to work from home 2 days a week which was wonderful. The workload was not overly complicated or time consuming. Also, the benefits were very competitive along with an excellent 401k and bonus program.

      Cons

      No chance for promotion or recognition. The management has been placed in their positions simply because of longevity at a certain position, NOT because of competency. This is frustrating, promotions need to be applied for and are never given. This exposes internal candidates to external competition. Also, the base salaries were not as competitive as other large firms.

      Verizon Business isn't half bad.

      Pros

      Decent benefits. My group allows working from home. Supportive direct management. Will assist with tuition reimbursement.

      Cons

      Direct managers have large impact. I am fortunate to work in a group that supports a healthy work/life balance and allows us to work from home occasionally. That can change very quickly between groups under different directors. Company has a hard time "pushing back" on larger customers. Most career opportunties seem to be in DC and NYC/NJ area. Comapny sends out plently of communications, to the point where it just becomes noise. Morale varies, and you must remember this is old MCI/Worldcom.
