Pros

Compensation and benefits are good.

Cons

Cares little about people, especially US-based IT folks. Only focused on increasing revenue and cutting costs. They want you to take more training, but the work demands and limited funding for new software make extra training all but a waste of time for many.

Advice to Management

If you put more emphasis and value on employees, you would have a more stable and productive workforce. Focus on employee development plans.

I got laid off 2 months short of my 30th service anniversary, despite having good reviews. That should tell you all you need to know about today's Verizon.
