      Canberra, Australia MSS Office

      Pros

      $8,000 USD study assistance. Discounts on health insurance/benefits. Incentives for holding government certifications. Plenty of vendor training and access to documentation.

      Cons

      Management in my office had not matured from entry level management. Excessive micro management, clock watching and do not treat staff with any level of professionalism. Management employ relatives or friends they play online games with to sit below as section team leaders. Overall Verizon is a great company to work for with some really clever guys. But this section of the company needs addressing before recommending anyone to work there.

      Culture clash in San Jose

      Senior software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Pay is reasonably competitive, you get to work with some really sharp people in the Scala community. Low standards for performance make work-life balance easy, if skating along with your head down is your thing.

      Cons

      Laughably abysmal project velocity, internal politics, and a series of top down re-organizations have resulted in a protracted land grab. Management on the east coast just doesn't understand bay area hiring and employment culture. God help you if you need something from a Verizon team that's not also in San Jose. Your day-to-day experience will be highly dependent on team, some seem terrible, some seem average.

      Challenging , fast paced environment.

      Senior analyst operation

      Pros

      Verizon is a leader in New communication technology. They have great benefits and have great opportunities for advancement. It is never dull at Verizon Wireless.

      Cons

      Depending on what market your are in usually determines your advancement opportunity. Unless you are willing to uproot and move about every 2 to 3 years you could get held back due to a lack of tenure or the good ole boy culture which seems to develop in the smaller markets.
