#rumor

Hearing a rumor they want this deal closed sooner then March 2026.
They floated the date of Dec 8.
Thoughts?
Maybe they want this done before the end of the year.

There is a rumor that all of operations will be cut in half next year. Anyone hear anything solid?

How likely is that we'll see major layoffs of clinical nurses and medical assistants in 2026?
I see rumors but it's hard to figure out.

Heard there have to be 4s on the team. This might be the new strategy to get rid of some serious headcount without any severances. Track your work and have enough evidence to contest the 4s. If they want you out they want you out.

Title says enough.

There was a rumor about the 12/18 date for more Wellmed/Optum layoffs, but someone just received an in person meeting for 12/4 and they're concerned so I wanted to see if anyone had heard about anything happening then?

Heard from a valid source that we officially are moving to the north suburbs at the end of the lease. Deal is signed. Goodbye downtown.

Word on the street is Georgia Alabama will be consolidated with the Florida market with Florida leadership running the show. Is there any truth to this? I wonder who got eliminated in Alpharetta or who will get eliminated in the next layoff?

VTeamers do not get too comfortable if your job is saved this time around… round 2 is coming sooner than you can think of, End of March to early April i am hearing from a realiable source details are being ironed out. The frontier merger should be finalized before Feb 16th and at that point frontier has 20k employees and they are all not cutting cut, i heard verizon can only cut a maximum 50% of their employees to avoid legal ramifications, that means we will have an additional 10k employee cut again in late spring! If you Don’t believe me ask your direct manager if there is a second round coming soon that was something discussed with them once they had already gave the notice to employees who would be impacted, they had a second meeting with their leaders to debrief. You can also go back and check their calenders yesterday you can clearly see their calenders match at a certain point….

Middle management/white collar and back office roles.

Anyone else hearing from leadership that another 5K round is planned in March post the reorganization across new leaders. Supposedly, this new transformation leadership is being asked to find efficiencies through downsizing targets.

First and foremost- to all our brothers and sisters in arms who were in the trenches with us that found out they don’t work at Verizon anymore yesterday, I’m sorry. A lot of good people were cut. The timing couldn’t be worse

But for all of us left- winter is coming.
That was the first phase of a long term plan to lean down. They cut the bare minimum to still have performance for the holiday rush. Once the New Years comes and goes there are confirmed more planned cuts for Q1 and Q2. and rumor is the packages won’t be as nice as the ones our fellow fallen soldiers got yesterday.

Update your resumes. Take skill up trainings and network. This isn’t close to the end .

Anyone have real insight on when Risk layoffs will start?

Get ready. I was told by a VP level Sales executive that HPE will be doing a WFR again in January..

So Dan laid off 13,000 people yesterday, 2,000 short of the 15K total we've all been hearing about for the last few weeks.

I'm hearing rumors from several sources that they plan to sell off Vz International (to BT) in April next year. Will the remaining 2,000 heads be from there do we think?

Anybody in the Roanoke VA area or Minneapolis market GNT get hit ?

Who will get affected this next wave? Non-union again? Or Union? Any sources out there?

we are hearing rumors that employees are moving to a different location in january and there could be a layoff round in december and that butters construction and the boca development fell through and there might be a fire sale of the facility like 320 park last year. What have all of you heard ?

Not sure what’s going on anymore. All the people that officially got impacted were only part timers and a couple of our stores in our market got shutdown/turned to indirect. By any chance, may they resume calls tomorrow or are we safe. I kept hearing rumors of tenure & performance was going to be a factor, but no one that fits the category got impacted atleast yet i also heard rumors that round 2 is coming on q1…. I havent officially got the “youre safe” message from my leaders

I am wondering if there any rumors about layoffs? It has been really quite and lower level management states that there will be no layoffs. Just curious. I see topics about a bunch of other topics, but not layoffs.

I’ve been hearing all kinds of rumors, some of them pretty outlandish. I can’t figure out what, if anything, might be true.

I’ve seen so many messages and status updates. From where I am, it looks like a lot.

What do you think? Would GB leave Elevance to lead the WNBA?

Anyone know who is gone? Heard Shankar but not sure if it’s true.

What’s the severance package like? Enhanced and 3 weeks per year like it’s been in the past? Standard 2 weeks per year? Or is it really just 1 week per year like some rumors have mentioned?

It’s starting now. If you’re in CST or EST, and you don’t hear anything for the next 30 minutes I think you’re probably okay. Good luck

I told everyone it was coming every RUMOR there is a truth in it, i wish he would have talked about the other layoff that will come in February after the frontier neegee is finalized too that number will increased as we had a VP who helped with the transition a few months ago to finalize it, get your résumé’s updated, get your financial in order, also they will try to FIRE YOU BEFORE THE LAYOFF happens to avoid paying you the severance package do not trust any of your managers and leaders make sure you document everything VERIZON cannot be trusted its time the employee UNIONIZED and become Stronger….. YOUR AD/SR MANAGER BEEN HAD ThE LIST OVER 4 Days AGO IT WAS RELEASED ask KATHLEEN GRILLO…. Vz has no transparency the employees knew and everyone kept it a secret from us acting like they didnt fu--ing know shir

They RIFed 70 people in corporate a couple of weeks ago. Any word of any more? New VP said he couldn’t promise there wouldn’t be another one.

Or am I just hearing nonsense? Why would they have something against white collar back office?

I just got word this suppose Thursday deadline is just rumor. This is postponed our another month as more high level discussions occur. So just relax enjoy thanksgiving.

Anyone here heard of a RIF tomorrow or have any last minute meetings added to their calendar?? TIA

Anyone know what’s going on with CMO?

Are there any layoffs planned tomorrow for home based medical care?

You can almost smell it in the air!

This place was silent before the layoffs and now it's full of unsubstantiated rumors.  You folks are tone deaf and have analytical skills of a toddler. I'd say there is 99% chance company is done with layoffs.  Even if they had plans for more layoffs in December, my guess is that they are scrambling to cancel them.  The winds in DC have shifted.  The entire country has shifted.  They are in the damage control stage now.  You don't layoff more people in the country on the verge of recession and in the midst of losing so many votes. You on the other hand give them some perks back which they have started doing.

Are there any layoffs today? I have had counterparts from other banks ask if I was impacted by the US Bank layoffs today…
I have not heard anything about a layoff, so maybe it’s a rumor?
