Pros

Verizon has great benefits like college tuition , health insurance, vacation and personal days. Verizon is also good at employee development and training opportunities for employees

Cons

For the last few years Verizon has been laying off it's management employees and taking away benefits from management employees. Verizon got rid of the management pension plan in 2006 and converted it to a 401K Plan. I retired and was lucky to receive good retirement benefits. This is no longer available to new managers. I think it is still a great place to work for non management employees but if you are thinking about a management job it is not a stable environment because of the layoffs of management employees.

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.
