Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

@gq RIFs for those small orgs now coming up as Annual holiday showcasing - Thanksgiving GIFT, Dan and paypal buddies from Zoo has no other plans.

except for 're-orgs' not much actually got accomplished initiative wise. Verizon has an outgoing CISO with a new CISO, who will be attempting to untangle nothing innovative has been planned since early 2015, platform technologies are dated, Purchases for platforms that maybe 2 or less actually use. Aged policies, firewall rules that are over a decade old. Tracfone integration still ongoing. Frontier is a year old, and no one has a clue what is 'actually' corporate versus consumer. That is just one small segment of the overall infrastructure. what about small maintenance engineering and that infrastructure.

The beatings will continue until morale improves! But seriously, focus on doing a good job and it will work out.

@ck The days of "just start your own business" are pretty much gone. It takes money to make money. Tack on the giant regulatory burden heaped on be the leftists over the years and you'll be broke before you even start.

If you have a family already, it's a non-starter.

@ck
And cut the unemployment and other benefits/protections while you are at it.

Get off your a-s and stop whining.
Back to the mother nature and survival of the fittest.

@b8 Riiiiiiiiiight...... yep all those numbers reported for 3Q are made up. Got it. 🤡 😂

@ar Exactly right. No one owes me a job. What a bunch of entitlement nonsense. Get off your ar-e and find a new gig and/or start a business. Every day you whine and complain and wallow in self pity is a day wasted that could've been spent chasing what you want and MAKING IT HAPPEN. Unbelievable blessing to live in a country of economic and personal freedom..........a damn shame so many minds have been poisoned to believe the opposite. Don't buy the lie!

@cf should" have"

You should of taken the ceo that turned frontier around. Windstream has him know

Dan (CEO) said 8 yrs and 1/2 trillion dollars to catch up to Verizon. Soon after Musk posted; “Will take 2-3 years”. Based on Musks track records I almost believe him. But hey….Dan will be long gone so what does he really care!

You people make me laugh. The same things said about Lowell and Hans! Welcome to corporate America. We are numbers on a spreadsheet. Plain and simple. You have options take them or not quit the bellyaching

@b8 true but he’ll still walk away with his multi millions while we all struggling with decreasing salaries and cuts.

What goes around comes around. Dan's supply of hair dye will soon run out and we'll see his true colours.

Let me put this plain and simple…

The new plan ain’t working! Dan has failed us all. He’s not fulfilling his promise of a turnaround. All he is song is improving numbers by laying off team members. When the dismantling stops the numbers will show how big a failure he actually is.

It’s time to fire the PayPal good ol’ boys club, bring in a real CEO and make Verizon great again.

@ar Who owes interlopers who only do damage and then leave in 5 years a golden parachute built from your 25 years of toiling?
btw, enough with the co-mie talk. Joe McCarthey called. The 1950s wants you back.
You'd be tricked into another Vietnam. Stop falling for it already maga. They're pulling the wool over your eyes while they rob you blind.

Who the he-l owes you a job? What a twisted mindset. I can see how the Co-mies are making end roads in America at this juncture.

The new mantra: They pretend to pay us, and we pretend to work.
That simple !

@OP 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

This is corporate America and how it operates unfortunately. Do bare minimum work to match the bare minimum pay and keep getting paid until your number is up.

@OP This is so true. I’m not going the yards I used to…nope! The Pay pal club will get rich while those of us doing all the work get minimum raises and lower STI.
