Thread regarding Verizon Wireless layoffs

So if one has one bar in a given month, they’ll give that rep a write up?

It seems like Verizon is playing dirty game by giving people unnecessary write ups in case they some how end up with a one bar. Where is the integrity in that? And how does it makes sense? If thats the case one can get fired? If someone can please shed some light on that matter, I’ll really appreciate that.

@3tma+1hq1XTc5 Like someone stated on here before, Verizon wants you to sell like you are on individual commission. You will never get the most out of someone in sales without direct compensation. This has been proven in the corporate retail stores. Numbers don’t lie.

They won't fire you because this is not a sales job. Its a clerk job with added incentives. Management wants to keep acting like its a sales job but the incentive is gone. And if you ask why they pay such a low incentive they tell you this is an entry-level job. Well then I guess I don't really need to work hard since I'm just an entry-level employee.

@2ieg+1hq1XTc5 That’s true because there is so much more to the job now then what’s on the contribution report. You have to be a super lazy bones to continually get a 1 anyway.

Don't worry about. Nobody can fire you because of performance. I have never seen anybody got fired because of performance in the last 10 years!

It's called sales. You must perform to keep your job. Same goes to almost all sales jobs.

If you end up with one bar, the performance warrants the discussion. As stated before , you go under review to begin, and progress through the steps, and yes, you can be fired for it. There is no question around integrity when it comes, as it is crystal clear what you need to do on a daily basis and you can check progress at anytime. And yes, you can definitely get fired if you continually underperform like that.

To be honest, it’s difficult to be at 1 bar. I have reps with 30% VMP but due to having slightly above average volume of VMP (because it’s how much you’ve added to the bucket that counts) compared to the national threshold, they aren’t developing in that category

If you end up at one bar performance for the EOM, you’ll go “under review” for the following months performance and if you get 1 bar again, you’ll start the disciplinary process.
