Pros

Competitive compensation, decent benefits, good first sales experience, opportunities for advancement, paid time off, many different opportunities within the company

Cons

I actually really enjoyed working at Verizon Wireless but it seems as soon as you get comfortable there, policies change and it seems like you're always being threatened with your job. Also working in a store you are competing against your own company when customers can go online for better deals or get a Verizon cell phone from Best Buy, Costco, or any other number of places that usually offer it a little cheaper or with free accessories.

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.
