Verizon reviews

Given challenges faced in the telecommunications industry, particularly rapid line loss on the Telecom side, there have been multiple involuntary reductions in force per year. Morale has been extremely low, and with fewer people to carry the same amount of work, employees are working day and night with little appreciation. It is a frustrating situation, and the culture is changing to a work-oriented, no family matters place. Most organizations are completely focused on just getting the job done, no matter how much time it takes from people's lives. Moreover, the senior leadership team doesn't have the direction and guidance to motivate the employees. Telecom Finance is a dismal place to work right now with the constant layoffs. Regional Marketing isn't much better either.

Hours, high turnover, ethical issues, shady salespeople. The company is run to make money and they seem to keep getting more greedy and care less and less for their employees. If you work hard and beat your quota they will just raise your quota the next month, then if you have a lean month they will write you up for not hitting your numbers. The company is not run well in the lower levels of management and the turnover rate is very high. I was in college at the time and they had told me before I accepted the positon that they would be flexiable with my schedule, simply untrue.
