Are they just weeks you’re required to go to office? What if no one on your team lives in the same state as you?

Saw a comment on a different post about “connect weeks” schedule being posted…. What’s that?

Are those weeks when you’re expected to come into the office? I assume where most if not all meetings are through Zoom?

Or is it Forced socializing?

heading to market basket than to get gas with out punching out , when i get back maybe play some solitaire on the company website , their go Onsemi go look at everyones company computer do a search lol. oh boy what u will find

Looking to apply to another team internally but wondering if I don’t have any backup if management would prevent me from being transferred over.

Most ppl impacted by snow received an email on Monday Jan 26 that in office policy will be relaxed this week..... Only to receive another email that in office policy is back in full effect starting Today Tuesday Jan 27.

So will Monday Jan 26 be exempted from in office reporting? Will we only have to go into office 2 days this week instead of 3?

Just a quick rant….why in all that is holy do we have to wait for management, who does not live in a location where they are dealing with ongoing below freezing temperatures and lasting impacts of the winder storm that hit this past weekend, to “allow” us to WFH

Why won’t a team manager who is onsite just say I am the manager on site and the conditions are still bad so I’m going to let my team WFH.

Just sad…..

As part of our multi-year strategy, we have made the decision to exit previous target locations over the next few years. Non-target markets include:
• Wilmington, Delaware
• St. Louis, Missouri
• New York, New York
• Salt Lake City, Utah
• Raleigh, North Carolina
• San Francisco, California (including Concord)
• Chicago, Illinois
If you are not in one of our target locations, please know that there are no immediate changes to your day-to-day responsibilities or where you work-business will continue as usual as we work through this multi-year journey.

I have it on good authority that they are working with a management consulting firm to revise the severance package policy. They won't change the 2 weeks of pay per year of service, however it won't start increasing until year 5. This is due to the 60 day notice period. Everyone at 4 years or less will get 2 months of severance, regardless of tenure before accumulating more starting on year 5.

Essentially what they're doing is eliminating the overlap with the 60 day notice.

Does anyone know how many days per month those who are below Director level are meant to be in office? I’ve heard 4 and I’ve heard 3 days per month. Also any insight on hour requirements per visit? Thank you.

So remotes within the radius will be RTO before Jan 2027

What about remotes over the 31 miles ?

Aired today during the NFL championship games. Suppose to be funny of preparing policy holders for how claims are being handled?

Did anyone else in CA get a letter regarding a non-compete policy being invalid.

I'm at a VP position so I am required to give a 30 day notice period. Would this be:

~1 month notice (which is ~30 calendar days)

OR

~6 weeks notice (based on 5 business days per week for 6 weeks).

I remember when they announced the shift to 4 days in office, they said they would review individual roles and let us know in January which are confirmed as 4 days in office, which would stay 2 days in office and a select few that would be remote. Anyone been officially notified?

I am in OR hub, but if I am in MN hub, no way I am going to in.

Have they send out emails this month to nit go into office till the chaos dies down?

Will we get an email on Monday telling us to go in if we can?

For teammates that are required to be in office 5 days a week for work, are they required to work from home when inclement weather prohibits them from getting to the office? It would seem if in office teammates are unable to effectively collaborate with a Champion Mindset and build better lives and communities unless onsite, there is no need for them to worry about work if they can't get to the office.

Great news, team!

After months of being told that our jobs absolutely require us to be in the office five days a week, we’ve now discovered a groundbreaking truth: remote work magically becomes possible the moment a storm named Fern shows up.

To keep things consistent with the company’s logic, I propose a simple standard:

• If we can physically get to the office: we work.
• If we can’t: that’s a company problem, not an employee problem.
• And since remote work “isn’t viable,” we obviously won’t be doing any work from home.
  After all, if flexibility only exists when it benefits the company, then employees should follow the same rule. No work from home. No exceptions. Just honoring the policy, we were told was non‑negotiable.

Agent provocateurs get on here and incite fear every damn month. They probably don't even work here. This is why corporate should have a policy of transparency about upcoming layoffs.

If you're actually in OT
New HR page, but no email yet.
4 days march
5 days sept

Emphasis on 'core' hours and a right to disconnect, potentially for places that do not have laws for it

Verizon’s prepaid services add a 365-day wait to unlock phones

The Verge by Emma Roth, January 21, 2026

Verizon is extending the phone unlocking period for its sub-brands – including Visible, TracFone, Straight Talk and Total Wireless – to 365 days of paid service. Phones purchased before January 20 will still unlock after 60 days.

What is RTO policy for non exempt employees? We don’t have access to the average hours dashboard, do we still have to RTO 5 days?

Yes, a new Office First policy will be announced.
No, not every employee will be mandated back to an office.
Yes, employees currently assigned as hybrid office based will be required to work from that office each day. No more 3 day schedule. This will happen over a few months.
Yes, if you are currently a virtual employee (meaning that your HR profile which you can access on Talent Central has you listed as virtual), AND your home address is within 31 miles of an OT office, you will be reassigned as an office employee and will be required to work from your assigned office every day. These employees will be given several months before they have to begin working from the office.
Yes, this applies to ALL employees in the US who live within that distance to an office, other than customer facing sales.
No, employees in countries with council will not immediately have to comply. OT is negotiating with these councils.

How does the HR calculation work?
Is it considered only 4 days every week or can we do all 16 days together and get 4 days WFH in last week ?

How does it work in other locations ?

Trump's new healthcare plan aims to give money directly to the consumer and not to the health insurance companies. I wonder how this is going to work.

I overheard someone talking about how rto is going to change and it’ll be 2 days per week in office and up to the department(s) on which days you need to come in? Anyone know anything or know if this is something that’s going to be released?

What's the Vz USA policy , is porting out of corporate cell numbers our allowed at exit?

International employees are told that it's policy that numbers can be ported out if you can prove you ported your number in when you joined.

Will this apply to all teams, or will some remain fully remote? I’ve heard it applies across all departments.

Most people (not all) do not understand -

How important it is for the Fed to maintain independence in its' policy making, and monetary decision making.

Does anyone really want an (unqualified) politician determining monetary policy that can (actually) affect the Global economy.

There are (Severe) consequences, and (most) people; do (not) have a clue; but will find out if it does (actually) happen.

It won't be good.

Is anyone else being asked to track all of their hours in Clarity, not just projects?

Can you WFH for now until you wait and start reporting to the new location? Is there any chances you will get terminated since you answer “YES”

I haven't seen the 2025 version of the executive compensation document posted online. It used to be updated annually at the below link, but it seems to have been scrubbed from the internet. Has anyone seen the latest, or know if it will be posted in 2026?

So just to get this straight - there aren’t “remote work weeks” but leaders can just randomly work remote for a day here or there? If they are responding to work emails and engaging in work with their team then they are technically working right? Which means they aren’t taking PTO. Isn’t that remote work? Meanwhile I am expected to be IN the office?

Who is monitoring this? The timecard and attendance piece? Or do rules not apply to “so called” leaders? Asking for a friend and my colleagues who actually follow the rule. Just curious if we should start calling the “speak up but you won’t be heard line.”

Trump signs order to block defense companies, like Boeing from buying back stock until arms production improves.
The Trump administration has criticized the defense industry for what it describes as high costs and slow production.
For Boeing production never will improve

The veep of corporate environment and his analyst are certified donkeys. Operations and maintenance now have one standard for safety while lab personnel have another. The double standard is bad enough but the actual standard is stupid as well. This will not improve safety and will only deter anyone from wanting to do more for safety. Mark my words, off shift, places that are rarely visited,they will follow this as much as people follow the no looking at your phone rule or the use hand rails rule. They should be fired immediately but they won't. Bilbo will probably give them all promotions saying they saved everyone. Stupid people making stupid rules.

Any departments get told they have to start tracking time? Heard it was GL24-29 only.

is the new policy now 8 hours a day, 5 days a week...no exception. https://www.thestreet.com/employment/dell-issues-stern-message-after-employees-violate-new-work-policy

Anyone been randomly tested recently? Wondering if the recent schedule change for thc will impact testing.

Wondering if anyone has credible info on how severance actually works. I know its 1 week for every year maxed out at 25.

Do we need to be employed when the year end bonus will be get paid in 2026 or if someone leaves early in 2026 can still get the bonus ?what’s the policy ?
