It's not over. And it's not limited to any particular organization/segment. Across the board, they are cutting.

VZW should have objected to new TMo's massive C-Band holdings from Sprint. Massive cost to Vz for not doing so! Legere was right - d-mb and d-mber. Paying the price now.

Central and East have all been notified and the all-clear stated. if you havent heard from HR or your manager, you are still an employee more than likely.

One person impacted in my team in IT Wireline. The person volunteered (retirement age), no hard feelings.

Laying off during holiday season sucks but I guess they need a new budget in the new year

Riff’s ain’t bad if people volunteer/want to go, but when there is not enough of those it gets stressful. Any idea what departments? How many? The vzb takeover of vzw is bad for vzw
