You've been warned

Hans and our leadership team should look at themselves in the mirror

Anyone hearing anything?

I find it surprising that VZ hasn’t considered closing all of their corporate offices by now. Talk about huge savings! Why lay off people when you can shut down offices? That would save big money on building debt/rent, property taxes, electricity... — read more 

I've made the decision to leave. I'm glad I did - Verizon has turned into a joke. I'm so tired of nepotism, cronyism, bullsh-t politics, and watching the Titanic sinking as those who run it do nothing to help. Anybody with half a brain knows it's... — read more

Anyone else notice that their January and February lump sum numbers dropped this month? I expect drops in the 3rd month projection but I've never seen month 1 or 2 estimates change

More debt, more layoffs, more heads buried in sand

We all know you're just trying to rub it in that you didn't get RIF'd. STOP.

Just curious

For those RIF'd in Oct. today is your last day. For those who wanted to leave, good luck in your future endeavors, I'm sure you'll do great. For those who didn't want to be RIF'd but were unfortunate enough to be too old, make too much money, or... — read more

Mandatory day to work unless you put in for the entire week off.

Investors saw a lot of red in 2022. But a company known for its magenta logo was a stock market darling this year. Shares of T-Mobile (TMUS) rose about 20% in 2022, even as rivals AT&T (T) and Verizon (VZ) tumbled. Ma Bell was down about 2% while... — read more 

Then prepare for more cuts, more lost benefits, and more work for the same pay. Verizon: the company that keeps on giving!

Altice = Inferior product Inferior management Not even a dividend for owning the stock. It's a dog with fleas!
