Vantaggi

Good pay, commissions and incentives, ongoing training, ability to move up to management fairly quick, up to eight thousand dollars paid yearly for school, 401K 6% salary matching, open door policy, free concession smart phone with unlimited calling and texting, ability to make up to 100K per year.....ALL OF THIS IS USELESS AS YOU WILL BE EXPOSING YOURSELF TO AN INSURMOUNTABLE LEVEL OF CONSTANT STRESS, LOSS OF MORALE AND NEED TO SEE A PSYCHOLOGIST OR DO DRUGS. IT IS NOT WORTH IT

Svantaggi

IT'S ALL AND ONLY ABOUT THE NUMBERS ALL DAY EVERY DAY IN A WATCHDOG/BULLYING MICRO MANAGEMENT COMPANY. They condition everyone to be greedy, unsympathetic, lying actors etc. The number one goal is for the employee to sell accessories that are grossly overpriced and consumers are becoming smarter and shopping online and at bargain shops, Highly stressful sales driven environment, must sell accessories constantly non stop-the number one question you hear repeated all day is "did you get accessories with the sale"?, must beg people to buy accessories from you or you get written up, you must work weekends, no set schedules, they constantly move you to other stores even after you have a customer base, Stressful micro management, on your feet all day, loads of ridiculous paperwork/writing, constant visits from corporate and higher management to micro manage employees, customers are among the worst of any industry-if customers refuse to buy accessories it makes you feel contempt towards them, company lies lies lies, constantly changing computer programs-as soon as you learn new program they change it, must carry an ipad which always gets misplaced, systems crash often-you could be in the middle of a great sale and system crashes and your sale is lost, many of your sales get cancelled or returned so you must work triple hard to make up for that, every district meeting is to discuss "money" and how to be savvy about making people part with their money and never taking no for an answer. Unless you have no scruples, feelings and sympathy for consumers YOU WILL ABSOLUTELY HATE THIS COMPANY IT IS ONE OF THE WORST COMPANIES TO WORK FOR

Vantaggi

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.

Svantaggi

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."

Vantaggi

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.

Svantaggi

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.
