Verizon Communications Careers & Info

Current CEO: Lowell McAdam

Verizon, headquartered in Baskin Ridge, NJ, is a global leader in delivering innovative communications, information, and entertainment. They are currently number two behind AT&T. However, they are the leader above AT&T when it comes to wireless services. Their services include voice, voicemail, wireless, data, and video products. The company serves 104 million wireless connections with more than 88 million retail customers. The company offers their services for wireless devices and accessories, residential areas for television, internet, and landline phone, and the necessary tools for all business needs.

Working for Verizon Communications

Verizon Wireless, which employs over 85,000 workers nationwide, has been recognized as one of the top workplaces for information technology professionals for the ninth consecutive year. They reached their highest rank this year by placing 5th on Computerworld’s list. Unlike most companies, employees at Verizon get full benefits from day one. You don’t need to be with the company for 30 or 60 days before being rewarded with health and 401K benefits. Appropriately enough, Verizon’s workers are also provided with very nice cell phone discounts, and merit increases are issues every year. This company provides very attractive corporate discounts for travel, technology, and other gifts. At more than 2,000 branches nationwide, a 10% discount on childcare is provided. They also provide emergency military leave, where employees are granted the difference between the employee’s base pay and the military base pay. Tuition assistance, online development tools, and training curriculums are provided as well. Verizon is not known for favoring those who know the right people; employees get raises and promotions based on their own merits. Sales Representatives at Verizon are the highest paid in the industry, as they are offered a very generous salary on top of their commission.
