Pluspunten

Training is top-notch, in fact you're practically forced to take assigned training each month, and if you don't then it counts against your performance agreement. It's hard to get in trouble, especially if you've remained customer-focused -- if you've screwed up, then you've *really* screwed up. The salary is alright, I wish it were more, but I've been very satisfied with bonuses and benefits provided. Management is receptive to suggestions. Coworkers are very friendly and are helpful, everybody wants to help you succeed. Management always wants to help employees get to where they want to be and provide the necessary assistance to help you get there.

Minpunten

Internal communications are very hit or miss; either there's a lot of information about a topic, or there's almost none to be found at all. And even when there's information available, it's not always easily accessible. Multiple departments may deal with the same particular issues, and it's sometimes confusing to find out where issues for certain types of accounts should be sent since many of these departments are similarly named and nearly identical. Certain tasks only seem to perpetuate bureaucracy instead of attempting to eliminate it (though this could be personal opinion, since I feel that it's best when workers are left to do their jobs and not micromanaged). The downside to the "it's hard to get in trouble" bit I mentioned is that you'll see a lot of unprofessional interaction (not necessarily *bad*, but unprofessional - things like poor communication, providing incorrect information, etc.) with customers, but it's rare to see someone disciplined as a result. I wish it wasn't so sales-focused and recognized exceptional customer service.

Pluspunten

The sheer volume of data, infrastructure, and budget allows you to build and run initiatives that you simply cannot replicate at smaller companies. While being here, we have had to solve complex, high-impact problems with strong results, the resources are absolutely here. The frontline teams and mid-level leaders (at least mine) are deeply knowledgeable technical experts who genuinely care about protecting and enabling the business. Leading people of this caliber makes cascading a vision highly rewarding, as the execution capability is top-tier. We are always striving to make the company better without compromising integrity.

Minpunten

Moving large initiatives or projects through a matrixed organization like Verizon requires an exhausting amount of red tape - no matter how much they want to claim otherwise. Decisions that should take days can take weeks or months due to the endless layers of alignment and stakeholder sign-offs required. This is further complicated as the company undergoes regular structural shifts, reorgs, and "strategy pivots". As a leader, a significant portion of your energy will be spent managing team fatigue and keeping folks steady through constant organizational "evolutions."

Pluspunten

Compensation is competitive but you will work very hard for it. Culture is excellent and exhibited and practiced from the top down. Benefits are excellent and cost reasonable. 401k match and profit sharing. Lots of training and professional development opportunities. Can advance if you're willing to relocate.

Minpunten

Company is trying to transform into what it wants to be beyond a wireless carrier (cloud?, security?, telematics?, wholesaler?, etc) and is struggling with a vision, resources, and org structure to make it a reality. Several re-organizations over last few years so job security has frequently been a question. Often delayed response to competitors caused by management's concern that acting would result in not meeting Wall Street expectations. Not the "happiest" place to work because no result is ever good enough and successes aren't celebrated because the focus is always on the next weekly/monthly/quarterly goal.
