Verizon

It is a strong company with an important product that is growing despite a downturned economy.

The benefits have been great, including $8,000 in tuition assistance. The health care benefits are decent, also.

The company is very focused on being the best in the industry and rightly avoids union involvement. This is the best thing for both the company and the employees, based on results at the competitor AT&T.

The company is great for anyone interested in a career and upward mobility, especially if you are young and willing to work hard for it. If you enjoy technology and a strong culture in your employment, Verizon Wireless is a great company.

Verizon Wireless has over 70,000 employees, and many of these employees are young and ambitious. While there are a lot of opportunities to move up in the company, there is naturally a lot of competition. However, some positions are easier to do this than others.

Due to a shift towards employee focus and avoiding unionization, human resources have become very lax and have created an almost government or union feel in certain areas that seem to encourage a lack of work. In these areas, it is easy to shine, and since advancement is not based on experience, everyone has an equal opportunity.

The Senior Management must be aware of current market conditions. Also, not paying attention to customer wants and desires, such as the iPhone, is particularly troubling.
