I will be leaving at the end of the week since I took VSP. Great package btw. I do however feel for those who didn't take VSP and got RIFed even though management all along had the list to target them after. Wish they could legally get the same... — read more

Does anything at Verizon feel more forced than driving the V Team culture. No one at Verizon feels like they are at a team that is special. Can leadership just stop pretending?
