What The F*ck
If you know, you know. The question that we've all been asking. Apparently, the CEO too.
State of Chicago and St.Louis
Any ideas how long will Chicago and St.Louis continue?
Forever Layoffs
I couldn't agree more with this vlog https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Dd33C4k-Zs
Why are we even discussing layoffs?
They’ve been a never-ending affair for a long time.
I wish for an alternate reality where none of us had to live in permanent existential dread.
Did the standards team get impacted?
Did Verizona’s standards team get impacted?
Talent profile
What are they upto?
BeMobile Indirect
Anybody on here ever work for this indirect company called BeMobile? They are turning some into this indirect in my area and I never heard of them. What do yall think about them? Good or bad? Same as corporate verizon?
In 5 years time…
What do you think Verizon will look like?
Will it even exist?
Job numbers are a joke
There’s no way there was an increase in the number of new jobs created this past month or for November. Especially with all the layoffs. Maybe they are part time jobs!
Comments????
comfort over complexity
the centralization bias is real
11/21 Did it happen?
GES, Firstnet , MM?
Wondering if thelayoff.com receives money for removing content Schwab might find offensive.
Charles Schwab and his wife Helen attended the White House Dinner - the special guest was Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud.
Questions regarding the appropriateness of Charles R. Schwab - who continues to represent and lead the company in his capacity of Co-Director of the Charles Schwab Corporation - attending this particular event are legitimate and not inflammatory.
So the question is why thelayoff.com removed the earlier postings regarding this topic.
Fate of VZI?
Seems no changes to VZI yesterday. What’s happening from that front? Anyone know Dan’s POV on outsourcing?
I can tell you from my experience that the onshore GTS developers are far more productive and skilled, but you can get 4 offshore for the price of 1 onshore.
Austin Innovation Center - Will it be the next target?
With GM now opening a Seattle Innovation Center, with Toronto coming into the picture, how long will the Austin Innovation Center Last?
QUICK
What work groups were impacted by the layoffs?
Can someone explain to me how some members pay zero premiums for ACA plans?
Legit question and please correct me if I have this wrong. But how does that occur? If there are people paying nothing for health insurance who don’t even work, I can understand why the American people have a bad taste about this. Love to hear this explained for my own understanding
Contractor Layoffs
Have any teams begun laying off contractors this week?
Submit questions to the global town hall
Everyone has a lot to say on here, this is your opportunity to try to force GM to address it. Yes they convert every question to a softball version but if enough people are asking the same questions they’ll have to at least speak to it.
Submit questions in the Slido for the global town hall with GM on Dec 2. You can also upvote other people’s questions.

I am interested in what people think as I know what the execs will say.
So anyone heard about Best Buy locations
Anybody got info on best buy
Global DTC Town Hall
Interesting they mentioned the possibility of promotions in January, but nothing about merit increases… unless I missed that?
Rep
Did anyone from business fraud in NC heard anything? So far it’s been quiet.
