      verizon-get outsourced as your career goal

      Software engineer iv
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      none or "well, you have a job", there are no career paths, there are no promotions, there is no reason to work there unless your goal is to get a routine paycheck.

      Cons

      entire staff being outsourced to india workers who do not talk to verizon employees. they put india workers who talk in foreign languages, have no dress code and wear beach clothes to work in the same areas as the US workers. the US workers require a dress code while the india workers walk around the office barefoot and with blue jeans. the india workers have no intention of talking english in the office.

      Great place for union employess, poor conditions for managers.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Decent pay and benefits, dynamic fast paced industry, security, decent hours for associates. Solid, strong union environment supports and defends associates.

      Cons

      Eroding benefits package, dissappearing pensions, more work for less pay and lack of work / life balance for management employees. Quintessential bureaucratic environment. Rumor is that the DILBERT comics were created by a former Verizon employee.

      Very good people in a difficult environment.

      Engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Steady job, until the layoffs start. Very good people - all trying their very best in a difficult environment.

      Cons

      Little opportunity for advancement. Red tape, as you might expect from a legacy telecomm company. Innovation is strongly frowned upon. New ideas are bad ideas. Procedures for everything. Strong focus on establishing blame instead of solving problems. Very little innovation for such a high tech company. As with most other high-tech companies, they think they own you and expect 60 hours a week for 40 hours of pay.
