Pros

They have a good benefits package but that's about it

Cons

Management wants quick wins only. I hear about this a lot in modern business but Verizon's management loses patience so quickly with projects that it's an absolute nightmare to work there. It genuinely feels like they're trying to sabotage the company sometimes. Upper management is so out of touch with its employees and its customer base and no amount of hard work from employees goes unpunished. Performance isn't rewarded. There are few ways to get ahead here and most people (understandably) just try to stay afloat by yessing management to death so as to not rock the boat and then complaining about management amongst each other behind closed doors.

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.
