Verizon Environment Employee Reviews

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

There really isn't much positive

Peers are great and makes work better

good working relationship, did not feel any pressure at all

Review from Engineering Dept

Everyone wants to help each other

The supervisors are amazing and my colleagues

My immediate work environment is amazing. We support one another and understand that we need to in order to maintain. We care for one another and realize that the company is lead by an absolute fraud. We keep focused on what we control. Hope that a new CEO is close gives us hope.

The supportive nature when things go wrong. I mean, sometimes things just happen and when it isn't positive, no one gets bent out of shape, freaks out or gets mad. Everyone just pitches in, pivots and finds a way to still achieve our goals.

Customers are not easy to deal with and management does not have your back.

The freedom and urge to learn

some departments are very good and effective. Others are very poor in performance and improvements.

The company is extremely inclusive

You are provided 100 percent autonomy to explore and experiment

Local, individual values and management who allows us some freedom in decisons.

Review from Operations Dept

We all do the best we can with what we have, which sometimes feels like it should be a lot more in terms of systems and infrastructure

Review from Sales Dept

the support from other managers

Review from Operations Dept

Work and life balance is great

The technology that they work on and learning opportunities.

Shared values and energy to innovate.

My coworkers are great though I get the feeling that management just repeats what they keep hearing from their Senior Management leadership

Its a good place to work

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Promoting those who deserve it, not just to check a box. Promoting those people who are competent people leaders. Holding people leaders (upper leadership) accountable.

Review from Engineering Dept

Get back to the basics and demonstrate values contained in the credo.

Leadership needs to be directly involved in cutting red tape. They need to find the weak links and start laying off Directors and Vice Presidents of underperforming organizations.

Honest representatives and properly trained out sourced employees

Hold managers accountable for poor leadership. Leading is an action, not a corporate buzzword. People are resigning weekly in our area and our Director continues to shine. Outrageous.

More accountability and actual resolution of issues in a timely manner

They need to pay people more and increase commission from team to individual and take into account how they used to.

Better pay, better hours, we dont need to be here until 7pm, learn how to hire, train your management. Admit failure when you create a new pos system and its a flop stop forcing it and admit defeat.

Review from Sales Dept

Pay more and bring back bonuses. Quit expecting specialized departments to be experts in every feild.

Leadership from the top down. Decisions and dorection couldnt be worse. Hans Vestberg ruined ericsson and now Verizon.

The company is not engaged to it's employee experience and has not made progress on infrastructure inefficiencies

Ever since they brought out this new commision structure no body is happy

Employees should come first. Opportunities should be given to everyone, not just a select few.

Review from Customer Support Dept

Pay their workers better and allow more opportunities to move within the company?

Hire the right people and involve the team that will be part of their production. Don't cave to political pressure and lead in the world that is being ravaged by political groups and pressures. Find your employees strengths and move them where they will be best utilized.

Review from Sales Dept

Truth and honesty. Pretending its perfect negates people's actual lived experience.

Review from Marketing Dept

Performance bonuses based on customer interactions.

Review from Sales Dept

An education would be a nice start.

Review from Finance Dept

management needs to do the job before they become manager of the department and know what to do and how to do it

Review from Customer Support Dept

when management doesnt care about anything but their incenti ves and bonus' and a get it done at any cost is wrong
