Pros

It is very dependent upon where you work within Verizon and the experience that you have. The benefits are generally good. Our area also sponsors and encourages additional training. On the software development side the Agile Mindset is encouraged. My co workers and immediate managers are good and fair I work for and with them.

Cons

EWA- in the event of an associate strike you are expected to perform additional duties to support telephone, FIOS, internet service. Rotating management several layers up. The new Directors always have a new strategy and this last round we have lost too many people because of the lack of communication and poor strategy. Not sure how long it will take to recover from the latest and greatest. RIF - No doubt about it, this will happen. Unfortunately, the spreadsheet makes decisions. Know this going in, do your job, but also work to improve your skills and abilities for yourself. The company is too large to care for a single individual. Unfortunately, the Agile mind set is not pushed enough on the Business Side and there is a lot of miss opportunities.

Pros

Reasonably better paying than other Indian IT companies. And exposure and learning is very high.

Cons

Indian employees are treated very badly compared to the US ones. Also middle management and some of the employees are absolutely useless
