VCG employees are coded to attend. Employees with the day off are offered OT or do reverse flex to show up
Supervisors are required to be there.

This meeting is definitely about layoffs

Definitely layoffs. Not sure of scope but I know some SMs and sups have already been notified.This isn't just a layoff so that's why there's a whole call for everyone. Some kind of reorg.If you aren't talking to customers check your leader's calendar for a meeting at 8 or 9am followed by multiple 15 minute meetings.

That's right. Unionize so you can be stuck in Verizon purgatory while coming on here to beg and grovel for an EISP. Pathetic.

Guess we missed our chance to unionize.

Business update = layoffs, reorganization, etc.

Verizon isn’t being nice and pulling you offline in the masses just to discuss any leadership changes. Lol

Verizon is not an American company any longer. Polish your resume and be prepared.

How can we get laid off when vzw is in debt ? They won’t be spending their savings on severance for our freedom

@hrk+1mL0zxDf Its either a major change or a layoff. Why else would that meeting be added with no info given? Even when we have launches or new plans we learn about them before the launch date. Best case its to announce that Hans is out.

I for one would love a layoff but I doubt I am that lucky

Seems like Hans wants Verizon to be the #1 company in America but doesn’t want any Americans working for the company
