Hans….Blackstone….search and read, no wonder mandatory vaccinations are being required $$$$$$
Had our monthly team huddle/safety meeting 10/05/2021 and was told by our manager layoff are coming before the end of year. I work in Netwk ops, or Netwk assurance, or some department that changes names every other year, too hard to keep up with anymore. FTP !!!
The layoffs and beatings will continue until morale improves!
Layoffs happened again 9/2921
Sc--w the pooch. VZ sucks and if you work there long enough your brain will get sucked out by zombies.
Leaving Verizon one of the most difficult and best decisions I've ever made. Verizon is notorious for layoffs and politics. Build a better life for yourselves. Wish you all well.
Don't layoffs usually happen on a Thursday? Not to stress anyone
What positions have been laid off on wireline, and will layoffs come to b2b sales?
Inside scoop. The WFM function for all work groups will be given to a very dor out of the US.
I’m hoping for a layoff I hate this place and it’s hostile work environment.
I know 10 people who were laid off last week. One of them had been with the company since 1990. I’m on wireline and I was informed my job will be eliminated at the end of March. Verizon reorganized the business at the beginning of the year and it’s been a cluster f—-.
Anyone heard of any layoffs on landline side of the business?
1nuhg Your point about being separated during the pandemic is valid especially with Verizon's social awareness proclamations including Citizen Verizon. Didn't you get 2 weeks severance for every year of service capped at 35 weeks or has the severance plan changed?
Verizon laid off about 500-1000 folks Feb. 5th. Notification went out Jan. 7th. The lay off gave a pittance severance amount, only based on signing a separation contract we can't say anything about the layoff. I am shocked. My group is in Verizon Global Wireless Business Group. For a Gov. subsidized oligopoly to lay off folks during a pandemic while we're still meeting our numbers shook my inner soul. The insult to injury is, in November and December 2020 they had Verizon American citizens in my group including me, training Indians from India, hired in our group, not citizens to do our job. I was thinking it's due to our business growing. Turns out they outsourced our work and laid us off. This is criminal!!!!!!!!
The lay offs will continue until June in 3 phases. Verizon downside Managment in the retail stores by 2/3 by June 2021. First phase was in Jan. This info from a Article published by fierce with the concerns in change to the wireless companies and Verizon retail footprint. All stores will have one Sm and share a Gm with another store. Update your resume and Linkin info if you are a Verizon retail solution manager.
There are layoffs - I was laid off yesterday! F— VMG
Verizon Media teams are reducing manager headcount today.
Verizon is now laying off about 500 ppl. I'm one of them. My entire team was let go. Most of the layoffs are coming out of the California area due to the high cost of doing business there. Those useful California id–t legislators up in Sacramento are working 90% of the companies out of California. The due to the high cost of living there, I ended up moving to Texas and taking another job with a better salary.
On the Connect side the ops org were all let go aside from 3 people
Next rif in 2023, vsp took care of head count until then.
"near 0%, if you're unionized." Getting fired for laziness though, near 100%...
@bat you troll this board AND the Frontier site? AT&T too? Frontier Board.
Get a life.
Hopefully no layoffs for anyone... sick mind to enjoy another human losing their source of income, union or non union.
Hey Troll - You posted the same topic on the Frontier Board. Get a life.
near 0%, if you're unionized.
100% likely. They have laid people off every year, multiple times a year. K - thanks - bye...
There have been layoffs the past couple of months across organizations. Of course there will be more layoffs. What those numbers looks like all depends on how bad the loss of revenue is at the end of this years.
