Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

This is comical, some info on EISP would be nice

No word yet on whether accepted or not for EISP, but we're supposed to be off payroll by end of week and many people will have days left that must be used or lost by then.

@at They were. That should happen after the EISP departures. Plant school late December, early January for new hires. In NJ

@@@I took the lump sum - thanks Gemini

No Inflation Relief: Verizon's traditional pension annuity does not include a Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA). Over a 20-to-30-year retirement, flat monthly payments will significantly lose their purchasing power.

Apparently in typical Verizon fashion they are waiting until Friday at 5pm. so nobody can get paperwork in on time

That’s because the union leadership is busy trading off oversubscribed members to secure street hires and protect their dues. If the company won't play ball on new hires, anyone hoping to take the enhanced package gets left hanging for the "good of the Union." Your retirement package is basically being held hostage so union officials don't have to consolidate locals or pick up a pair of tools like the rest of us.

@a4 the company has never advised the Union mid day on Monday following the Friday of the EISP close date. There is union Radio Silence, they have not yet been notified. Call your local official if you have any questions. This is the same process of all previous EISP’s.

Let’s hope for a round two by the end of the year.

@OP Hopefully they are negotiating getting any oversubscribed members added to the number.
