Pros

Verizon Wireless for the most part is a great place to work, opportunity for advance is highly achievable and benefits are one of the best out of any industry. The company has not had a negative quarter since it formed in 2000. Long Term Incentives are always paid at full. The company is constantly changing due to technological advancements and as employee you are on the forefront of these changes. Top employees are rewarded generously with all expense paid trips to different parts of the world.

Cons

Like all companies there are some definite downsides. Definitely the corporate atmosphere with many levels of bosses and that top down approach. Lots of stress from upper management on hitting targets, like most organizations I am sure. Some management not being completely qualified.

Pros

Compensation is competitive but you will work very hard for it. Culture is excellent and exhibited and practiced from the top down. Benefits are excellent and cost reasonable. 401k match and profit sharing. Lots of training and professional development opportunities. Can advance if you're willing to relocate.

Cons

Company is trying to transform into what it wants to be beyond a wireless carrier (cloud?, security?, telematics?, wholesaler?, etc) and is struggling with a vision, resources, and org structure to make it a reality. Several re-organizations over last few years so job security has frequently been a question. Often delayed response to competitors caused by management's concern that acting would result in not meeting Wall Street expectations. Not the "happiest" place to work because no result is ever good enough and successes aren't celebrated because the focus is always on the next weekly/monthly/quarterly goal.
