Pros
Verizon is a well respected brand in the industry and having it on your resume could lead to better positions in other companies. Pay (depending on what company you were hired in) can be decent.
Cons
Too many levels of management which can feel overwhelming at times and very disconnected to the company at large. Certain demands of job are unreasonable due to the constant change in procedures and policies. Moving up within the ranks is very difficult because the requirements for promotions or business group moves are cumbersome or near impossible to fulfill. Benefits within the different segments of Verizon are varied which can feel inequitable. No sense of seniority so when layoffs do come around, you're never sure where you stand.
