Verizon Telematics Reviews

Due to the growing nature, it's sometimes hard to see the wood through the trees and where you're going next. If you know what you want to do, make sure you make it known to your manager. Of all the people and managers I've met in the business - they will do their best to help you if you work hard. The cons go away if you're hard working and are vocal about what you want to achieve.

I have thought long and hard about writing this review because I am not one to complain publicly, however after witnessing what I feel is behavior that goes against the “Verizon Credo” I can no longer remain silent. Leadership across the board needs to be trained on how to talk, coach and interact with individuals. Several bad managers are making it difficult for the few “good” ones that remain. Without the support of Human Resources and Top leadership Verizon Telematics will continue to lose great talent. Recently Verizon has hired 5 Indian men into key leadership positions within IT. While I understand an “executive search” firm and believe you’ve hired the “best” individuals for roles the lack of diversity in race and gender is apparent and causing major cultural issues or what is better known as Corporate Tribalism. This has caused a significant decrease in employee morale and fear of retaliation if a complaint is raised making it a hostile environment to work Employees attempt to spawn change by raising issues to HR. However, Human Resources is practically non-existent. It takes days sometimes weeks to hear back from them when you want to lodge a complaint. Employees have to resort to filing EEOC complaints or calling Verizon Corporate in order to be heard or see some type of investigation/movement. Examples are too many too list but here are some of the top complaints - Several individuals have been forced to perform duties they are not skilled or have no training (ie. server reboot) and threatened that their performance rating will be impacted because of it. When brought to the attention of the Andres nothing happened as this is still going on - Several females have experienced being ignored, intentionally overlooked, and opinions dismissed directly by leadership. Sometimes they are not invited to key decision making meetings where they clearly are the subject matter expert. Their ideas are only heard when shared through a male counterpart which stifles the sharing creative and innovative ideas - Individuals have been insulted, criticized about their physical appearance and harassed with inappropriate comments. When reported to HR nothing has happened as the individual(s) are still present and often makes it a difficult environment for the individuals to work
