      Pros

      Underground parking and great cafeteria.

      Cons

      Wireline management is in a "time warp" in the '60's where VP's and Directors don't speak respectfully to lower levels. Very non-inclusive, fear mongering, talent stifling environment. Changing the cube structure and creating hubs will not make you into Google. Investing in talent management and showing the arrogant and out of touch VP's and Directors the door will keep the good talent from leaving. Spend some money on 360 reviews for Director and VP levels. Ridiculous redundant processes, massive double work, and think they are state of the art.

      great benefits.pay is good. tuition reimbursement is great. vacation time decent.many varied employee discounts across several industries.leader in telecommunications field.

      Cons

      Culture change is affecting worker morale. Too many managers don't have the skills to lead, the job experience or lack the desire to be better leaders.they are just trying to avoid the next layoff

      Great brand name, but the company has grown too huge and reactive to be agile

      Pros

      Verizon offers: 1. Good pay - usually 10-20% above market rates 2. Good benefits 3. Flexible working hours

      Cons

      Tons of challenges working @ Verizon: 1. Co has grown so huge, one hand doesn't know or care what the other one is doing and both end up being horribly out of sync 2. Verizon is a Sales driven organization. It doesn't matter if you are highly technical, all of it has to translate into numbers for you to survive 3. There are no clearly defined policies and procedures - it all depends upon your manager. What he thinks is gospel truth for you 3. People are very used to bureaucratic work environment and tend to enjoy and thrive in the chaos that comes along with it 4. Verizon is a ruthless hire and fire org. Re-org's are a constant threat and demotivate the employees. It doesn't matter if you are working hard - what matters is if everyone else thinks you are working hard My final words - stay away from Verizon if you are from technical stream, its a completely out and out sales org.
