@cb Yes there isn’t anyone left in L&D that has telecom knowledge. I’ve had peers go into L&D to only be shut down and told they aren’t a team player by leadership because they questioned the nonsense that L&D was putting out there. I have a good friend that was well versed in the telecom industry, well respected by peers and could speak to all technologies that was told by L&D leadership to get with the program or else. That individual left earlier this year and got a position with another company that appreciated their knowledge The pay was way better and last I heard that person is happy and doing well.

L&D lost it’s reputation as being a leader in telecom knowledge when they promoted employees that su-ked up and to your point regurgitated information that they knew nothing about.

Also they had some mega training center in Leesburg Virginia that was a major expense that was not needed and unless you were close to the area leadership did not want to waste the money to send people there when training could be done locally.

They have done nothing but regurgitate material with an inability to follow up on any technical aspects that needed further clarification. They exist so VZ can tout how many "development" hours were given to employees. The current regime is not interested in this metric.

Verizon was honored and humbled to get “benefits” as the cfo words it when they offshored many of them during Verizon global services days. Verizon then celebrated soon after by posting about dj parties and photo shoots.
