Working at Verizon Communications in Hilliard, OH: 3 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Hilliard, OH Area

"Verizon Wireless overall has is all in on it's 5G network and products and services around it. Leadership sometimes has made questionable purchases (AOL, Yahoo) that the market didn't see favorable in the portfolio. Overall benefits are good, compensation would be in the bottom quartile but fair. For being a self proclaimed technology company, the focus is more on customer experience/bottom line than employee experience. Individual leaders can be amazing, although, there can be some favoritism for promotions at times. I always felt the environment was inclusive, and in my most recent role, I was challenged to bring value and my voice and option was respected."

"I've worked for VZ for 19 years. I have found it to be a strong company with competitive pay and benefits. They are very flexible when it comes to balancing your personal and professional life. Sometimes there is some red tape and politcal nonsense that has to be dealt with to get the job done, but that's not isolated to this company. They have started to hire folks in countries outside of America. I don't agree with taking jobs away from Americans and giving them to the other countries, however, that is all of Corporate America these days, not just Verizon. And the % for VZ is minimal."

What do you like about working at Verizon Communications?

"I like the good health benefits that are offered to the current employees."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

What don't you like about working at Verizon Communications?

"No vendor-specific certification for the products we install and manage is allowed to be reimbursed with tuition assistance."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Quit offshoring the work to 3rd world countries. Allow vendor-specific certification for the product you install and manage to be reimbursed with tuition assistance."
