@aw and you think that would be good?
@an malady was a total butt kissing yes man a--hat. He doesn’t understand anything but who’s butt to kiss to keep his bank account fat. You def are new to VZ.
@aa Nope! Not gone. Just had two reports removed from under him to Dan's new hire- his paypal buddy. Dan will probably keep them all. The elites stick together!
@as well Shank C level had two direct reports move out from under him to Dan's new paypal buddy. Wonder what is going on there.
But its Friday. We are all on the back nine by 1:00pm.
sheeeeit, i'm just not answering my phone
@at My guess is that Sampath will run the merged VCG+VBG
Post the emails here!
@as i heard thats because vcg and vbg are merging.
I wonder if any of Russo's direct reports got impacted.
Looks like the leadership disruptions within GN&T are minimal, unlike VBG, VCG
Best thread on the site!
@a3 For sure? I havent seen the typical 'retirement' email from Russo.
We need a thread that just lists the impacts as they become known.
Malady has an in-depth understanding of the VZ network - his knowledge will be missed
@ak agree don’t think Russo is gone
@a3 where did you hear this? I doubt they cut Joe Russo
I can think of a lot Sr directors, avps, vps, svps and evps that got us into this mess over the last 10 years that need to go.
@ab I don't think he had a say in his "retirement."
Who is definitely out?
TEll US MORE!
Donald Duck also out
@aa post the email here!
Frank chose an interesting time to retire
Given today's email, I have to assume Shankar is gone. I'm sure Stacy is gone too.
@a4 , what a shame. Now he really won’t be able to hire a tailor to help him with his ill-fitting clothes!
@a7 This was inevitable. With no more local markets, why did they need all those presidents and regional teams? does anyone know if remote workers are those away from BR are more likely to be affected?
probably they will do half the calls today, half on monday. i'm curious if they tell the managers about the members of their team
@a4 I guess now that the cuts are leaked to the media, they have no reason to wait till Nov 20.
I just heard about malady. This is real. They want to deliver all news before Monday.
Malady out, Trotman out & Russo is out.
Calls that are letting the leaders go? Or calls to the leaders to let their direct reports go?
Fake news
