Pros

Good work life balance and that's about it

Cons

Verizon used to be one of the most decent companies to work for. They are not any more... Top execs just care about their fat wallets. 80% of IT is being outsourced to Infosys . They are outsourcing individual contributors and some mid management while upper management take it easy watching everything getting devastated in front of their eyes. New CEO has no vision and doesn't see any thing on the table besides 5G. Ship has started to sink big time...

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.
