Pros

I like working in technology area. The culture is laid back with flexible hours. But professional growth is limited

Cons

there is lot of politics. The compensation is not in par with the industry.

Pros

Being in the union as customer support agent - the pay and benefits are the best around. $30/hour, free health coverage, pension and 401k is a rare find these days. Especially for a job like that

Cons

The micro managing and lack of communication are very frustrating. As well as the company forced OT policy and the lack of care of people personals lifes is very annoying. I guess this is somewhat normal for a big telecom company.

Pros

Verizon offers great salaries and benefits for there hourly employees. Management on the other hand actually makes less than the associates they manage. If you are looking to make good money in a management position, then Verizon is not for you. If you are interested in being a technician, they Verizon is the best. They offer great training and excellent pay and benefits.

Cons

Promoting from associate level to management is near impossible. Outside interviewees have a better chance of hiring into management. Associates are looked down upon no matter how hard they work and how much they try to better themselves.
