Pros

Insurance 401k match Decent work flexibility Plenty of opportunities to grow your career, especially if you're willing to move. Sales leadership seems to be comprised of level headed and understanding people who will help you succeed. It isn't always the case, but no company has perfect leadership.

Cons

Capped commissions (caps are pretty high and this seems to be common across companies, but still annoying if it happens) Leadership is using SalesForce to manage sales activity and forecasting more and more. Not necessarily a con but if you can't manage your sales funnel with this tool, then this job will be stressful. This isn't a position where you sell and hand the customer off to a support team. Sales reps can spend a fair amount of time servicing customers on top of selling. There are avenues to reduce the service burden, but it has always been a part of the job.

Verizon Doesn't Care About You

Pros

Fortune 500 Company if I have to name something.

Cons

There is no work life balance at Verizon. They expect you to work day and night. For a Fortune 500 company, there benefits are TERRIBLE. They only offer 10% off daycare for working parents and 2 weeks vacation a year. That is a slap in the face considering the amount of time employees sacrifice for this place. If you have a family don't work here you will never see them again. There is no opportunity here because you manager does not have time to prepare you for the next level since there is so much work to be done.
