Pros

Good compensation benefits & flexible work schedule. The managers were very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the projects they were working to complete.

Cons

Dealing with labor union, the occasional working strike, and the occasional unproductive conference call. Otherwise there were very few that made working with Verizon unsatisfactory.

Pros

They take care of you. You will definitely find employees that have been working for the company for years. They also have a tendency to promote from within.

Cons

You give your life to the company. It is very competitive within the industry which means you have to deliver otherwise you can get managed out of the company.
