People are getting laid off all the time from companies large and small. That's the economy and it's going to stay like that for a long while. Thinking you'll save yourself by charging company is so incredibly naive. Just keep praying you're not laid off and be glad you have a job at all.

@OP 30 years and I should be safe another 10. Wfh gang
@ax You can't be that stupid.
@d2 OSP engineering is a disaster at Frontier as well. Lol. Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss.
AI slop
Again... no one understands the top 3 areas of focus. Sampath reviewed monthly and my VP did the same.
The Culture is very confused.
As a result, competition is hitting Vz at all levels of the business. The lazy Execs compare us to TMobile, AT&T.
Zero execution against regional niche and Application layer companies that continue to eat off out CapEx
@ax Happens all the time.
lol…I am hearing that the OSP engineering teams are looking to hire people after the layoffs…company never learns …all these teams do is have calls and issue work that never gets done. On top of that they still have managers who refuse to change and adapt new tools and approaches. They could layoff another 20% and no one would ever notice. Dan needs to take a look:) where is AI …
@b5 The Street appears to have a more realistic view of the company’s underlying challenges than management does. Repeated rounds of layoffs and cost-cutting may improve near-term financial metrics, but they are unlikely to address the fundamental issues weighing on the business or provide a sustainable path forward.
What the company needs is structural transformation—not simply further reductions in headcount. That means materially improving the operating model, capital allocation, competitive positioning, and execution. The bigger concern is the pace of change: internal transformation appears to be progressing more slowly than the market expects, widening the gap between management’s actions and investor expectations.
Until the company demonstrates meaningful progress on these fundamental issues, incremental cost reductions alone are unlikely to change the broader market narrative.
Hello pagan red brigade ... how's the weather in Bangalore ?
@b9 I'm trying very hard to get cut. But it's not happening.
@aa Be careful what you put in your Pulse comments. I found out the hard way they are not anonymous and/or confidential. If you want to stay at VZ, you best put on a happy face and constructively make the company perform better. Nothing will get you atop the Rif list than an accusatory Pulse comment.
VZ stock is back $45 even after all these massive layoffs.
Funny I never see power companies laying off….
Anyone reliant on prayer has already lost.
its about getting bad leaders fired. report them! slam them in pulse! make them scared. because they will lie, smile, cheat, laugh, then lay you off.
i have been successful getting them fired. do it!
