He was senior leadership in Indirect. They must have hit others and not just retail. I hear he a good guy. Anyone know anything new?

I know how we see this mess. Now I know how others see it. Pretty much the same. https://x.com/johsinny/status/2077162630452519380 Posted at 10:45 PM on Jul 14, 2026 "Verizon was once a pillar of American innovation. Today it reflects strategic... — read more 

I heard that this time around the direct managers had an input on who leaves and who stays. Does anyone know if this is true? My understanding was that the execs are the ones who make those decisions. Does anyone know the criteria?

Ages of the people I know who were laid off today. Why am I not even surprised?

Dan Schulman’s employment contract as CEO of Verizon runs for 27 months, extending through December 31, 2027. He officially took the helm in October 2025 to lead a consumer-driven reinvention and strategic overhaul of the telecom company.

For nothing management gets the axe again. Brownosing for nothing lol bet your wishing you joined a union NOW!!!! Lol and tell me can you hear me NOW keep your service with us too DS needs a new Ferrrari vroooooooooooom.

Anyone on the 5G Home ready team affected? BDM's, AD's, Directors? This program has been going with no actual traction. Sooo many delays with roll out and build outs its insane.

This is a very volatile industry, whether you survived the layoff(s) or not, we constantly need to reinvent ourselves to remain competitive, unless you're lucky enough to retire. I've been in the industry now for going on 30 years and have seen... — read more 

Word from any Virginia stores?

Does anyone know or from last round know this. If you take the severance, for example if I get paid out for 20 weeks, do I still qualify for six months unemployment or will it be six months minus the 20 weeks that Verizon paid me severance for?

They completely sc--wed up the decisions on the Customer Experience team. Many hardworking, genuine, and talented people were let go, while many boot-licking, useless, and incompetent people were left behind. I can’t wrap my head around it. At the... — read more 

Hi! Sorry to hear about more layoffs today. Those who were impacted can you share how the severance has been at your level? Both pay and equity? Thank you

What about Fios managers? Are they safe and is Autullii safe?

Anyone else get this invite for 3:30pm eastern? Is it an all clear or doom?

After all these layoffs I might make a president's cabinet next year....

I wanted out for a while, so this is doing me a favor. I feel bad for my teammates who'll have more work now, but it is what it is. I leave happy.

Seen this a hundred times. Massive layoffs, but useless mid manager and c-suites are mostly retained. No real stock value injection attempted. It is a tired strategy, one used on so many brands in the past. The goal is not to bring the company back... — read more 

Anyone in Value org , especially Miami folks git any update/ call. Are we all safe

Have all the notifications been sent out by now?

Could it be?

Why can’t union reps get laid off seems unfair

You are only a number… don’t assume anything makes you safe. The current leadership has 1 priority… Slash and cut.. no master plan, no vision. the AI talk is all a cover to layoff and do stock buybacks.. Best of luck to all impacted today and the... — read more 

Or, to rephrase that, can you ask to be considered for a different role instead of taking the severance? And if nothing is available, then accept the severance instead?

Anyone in Value let go today?

Heard rumors days prior but haven't heard much, out here in the west coast down in the SD team????

Have any changes been made to severance? Can anybody who has been laid off share, please? I ask this each time and I know I'm probably being paranoid, but I always worry that they'll use any opportunity to further reduce the package, like they did... — read more
