Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

Rejection option

I've seen this mentioned in several places and I'm having trouble wrapping my head around it.

Is it true I can be rejected even if I accept the offer? Then why even give me an opportunity to do it? Just to be cruel?

Dangle it in front of those of us who really want it and then take it away?

It's a way to target the older more expensive employees without breaking any discrimination laws. It's the way of things.

I'm pretty sure this is more targeted at older/higher paid employees. If you're not high salary they probably are not going to agree. Also, I think they sent it to everyone on 'select' teams (whatever that means) not just low flyers.

Lets say they offer the buyout to your entire department and everyone in your department tries to accept the buyout. They need at least some of you to stick around to meet the needs of the business. So, some of you won’t get to take the buyout.
