Pros

Verizon cares about great benefits, competitive wages, and equality. It's all baked into their culture.

I genuinely feel valued, respected, and like management listens to me. There are a number of tools to mentor a person into growth if they want to grow professionally.

I believe that the Verizon team has handled the COVID pandemic perfectly and look forward to their innovative problem-solving going forward.

Cons

While the company has evolved to put a customer-centric focus on the way employees work, there are still a number of "old school" team members who have the "not my job" mentality. This is continuing to shift over time. On a positive note, we're empowered to influence positive change in situations like this.

Advice to Management

There is a bit of a disconnect amongst higher-level management. I think working out the kinks there would greatly benefit the organization. Sometimes contributors are gridlocked by leaders who can't agree on solutions.
