      Great Experience, Another Greedy Company - Sales Associate/Key Holder Verizon Employee Review

      Pros

      Working at Verizon, there is a lot of opportunity to grow. You have decent pay and good benefits. You get more vacation time as you spend time there and every bit counts.

      Cons

      Any retail end position from sales rep to general manager is going to very quickly burn you out. The company constantly increases sales goals while removing incentive to sell. Earnable commission payouts drop every year, and the expectation for sales is high. It has come to a point at which earning half the yearly salary which was possible three years ago is no longer realistically possible, and Verizon is loving the savings.

      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.
