Pros

I enjoy that I can grow and develop in my current role but also do things to develop myself for other roles in the company. Verizon is big on promoting from within. The benefits are wonderful. They start day one, 6% 401K company match $ for $, 3 weeks paid vacation plus 48 hours of personal time, 8 paid holidays, tuition assistance $8K a year, employee phone and discounts on personal phone service and more.

Cons

We are always asked to do more than you bau work but when you do it doesn't reflect entirely in the yearly merit increase. It gets frustrating to keep doing that when someone else who doesn't do the extra gets the same rating and similar merit increase.

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.
