Pros

Verizon Wireless is leader in its industry, with solid growth prospects and customers that are generally happy with its service. Plus, wireless service is now a necessity rather than a luxury, so job security is relatively high. Employees are paid a decent salary and have above average benefits.

Cons

It's still a telco, run by people who trace their careers back to AT&T's monopoly days. The company, and indeed many of its peers, need new blood at the top levels.

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.
