Pros

The company is extremely great. Probably the best overall company I’ve ever worked for. The home office is the best resource I’ve used within any Verizon company I’ve ever worked at. Staffing and recruiting does an amazing job to help screen and take the stress and pressures of hiring all the time on yourself. Inventory stays on top of the business as well and truly is an amazing resource when you need the help. Work life balance is a 12/10

Cons

Compensation for the level entry employees. This affects the talent level you can get in the locations.
