Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

4Q / 1Q RIF? This started at the top. Finish it from there.

20% off the top? Verizon can easily get there by rolling back a fraction of the layers of band 5+ fat built up without touching anyone else. Ever hear of a corporation whose CEO gets axed and is not followed by their disciples? Verizon continues to be saddled with way too many unnecessary SVP's, EVP's, VP's, AVP's, Sr Directors, Directors, etc. It's absurd. And the VZ board needs a slap for allowing it. Bertolini needs to be shown the door. Perhaps a trip to the Verizon annual meeting for an employee presentation of what’s really going on is needed. Any middle manager who threatens a report with "get on the bandwagon or leave'' needs to be reminded – uh, excuse me – “you’re actually the cause of this – and the target.”

In accounting the word is getting out that most of us will be rebadged in the middle of Q 1. People are applying to external jobs with the hopes of landing something better.

2 CISOs over the last decade, haven't no new security initiatives, lots of posturing, of so called new initiatives but the outgoing CISO never sent out a single idea of her own in almost 6 years. Embarassing

the N&T organization formerly known as GTS, DWCE, invest money in a event reduction platform, upgrade Firewall platforms to Carrier grade, review every Firewall rule greater than 90 days going back fifteen years. Any developer who retains code on their laptop with non encrypted API keys, give them the boot regardless if they have been recently promoted to Principal Engineers,

VBG Product & Marketing Leadership:

Mall Cop - Chief Marketing Offficer

The Office Scranton Branch Manager - Pricing CFO

Jonny Neutron - Chief Product Officer

“Finnish-ed” - Chief Product AND Marketing Officer. Sisu also means “ I will fire all of you and collect my money”

Truly awful VBG leadership
