Pros

Verizon Business is a fast paced telecommunications company with multiple lines of business. They value innovative thinking and integrity. Cloud computing and security services are at the top of the product food chain. Training is highly valued and they pay and provider ITIL and PMP trainig,

Cons

It is easy to get lost in the fray. Most employees have been there for a long time and there is no real on the job training focus for new employees. There is product training and sales/service training but once you are back in you home base it is very difficult to suceed.

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.
