Pros

Verizon has a very structured PM environment with establihsed process & procedures. Verizon doesn't appear to let the minutia stand in the way of getting the job done. I've been impressed with the people and expectation level of those I've worked with.

Cons

Lots of hours. If you're looking for the 40 hour gig Verizon is not for you. I would guess the average PM probably rolls up 50-55 hours per week.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
