Too many people are used to giving it their all and receiving nothing in return. I keep seeing it daily. Men and women breaking their backs to finish the work of three or four people, and they don't even get a thank you in return, not to mention any... — read more 

The board of Directors is charged with maintaining the highest standards of corporate governance because it believes that an effective board will positively influence shareholder value and enhance Verizon's reputation.

Our greatest strength is our employees. Moving the world forward takes more than the best technology, it takes the best people with diverse backgrounds and perspectives.

Sad.

Small cuts, medium cuts, major rounds... One of those is always happening. You might not know it because people were cut from groups you are not connected to in any way, but just because you don't hear about it doesn't mean it's not happening. Saying... — read more 

That ought to help morale.

This company needs leadership with better tactics. That's my opinion. Do you remember any good moves during last years? Perhaps someone could remind me, because I can't remember that there were any.

At Verizon, we set our V Teamers up for success with the opportunities they need to keep growing their careers, from a supportive culture to hard-to-beat benefits. Learn more about the resources powering our V Team.

At least for now. Nothing happened on Monday, so we can safely say it's over. Please stop scaring people with unfounded predictions that it's not over unless you know for sure. Your gut feeling doesn't count as a reliable source of information. Don't... — read more 

Can someone who received the email last Friday from Sam and Manon please post

Not a chance we're done.

Yes, go ahead, corporate executive mo--ns and useless board of directors keeping Hans Gruber, oops, Hans Vestberg in place who continues to slow bleed the company a lingering death. Go ahead and reduce/cut the STI's and pay. Continue to hire new... — read more 

Not that long ago Verizon was the industry leader. It seemed that nothing could de-rail us, customers would rave about the excellent quality and best customer service. It seems like a nightmare to look at our results over the past two quarters. I'm... — read more 

I just love getting a passive aggressive email from the wildly useless and incompetent Sam Hammock yesterday, followed by an email from Manon basically blaming all of us individual contributors for the mistakes that leadership has made this year... — read more 

Isn't Han's just delaying the inevitable? He just keeps rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Is it time for T and VS to merge?

'Our talented people are our most powerful asset"? The message was as incoherent as it was tone-deaf. Empty sophistry about transforming and winning in this moment is both hurtful and untruthful. The worked with what we had and got RIF'd. But the... — read more 

Any idea if there were cuts in Corporate comms? Will we still get two episodes of uo to speed each week? Will we still get to attend the super bowl, Indy 500, and your around all the cool 5g cities on expense accounts

Leadership matters. Bad leadership decisions = bad results for everyone. Employees pay the price for weak leadership. Leaders still make their millions and we lose our jobs. Vz should not be in the financial mess we are in. From Inc magazine... — read more 

Verizon has been going downhill as a company for years. This was never the kind of place that treats its employees great but it was never as bad as it is now. I would love to get severance and get out of here. Despite what many think, the job market... — read more 

I get VBG is.still adding, but these groups in today's announcement seem pretty wide spread. Any VBG rumors?

Quick question - have there been any changes to the severance plan recently? I just want to check the information I have.

How do they notify employees that they are laid off? Meetings 1:1 or in some other way?

Use this thread to consolidate what we know so far.

I didn’t see any CWA yet.

They should.

Another stellar day at vz. What departments and positions were cut. No names please.

The way things went the second quarter particularly in Consumer, things are bad. Wall St expected 160k adds, but VZ produced 12k. VCG lost 200k and VBG added 200K, but cost went way up. Look at the new travel policy. EVP/SVP approval required... — read more

I don’t have exact details other than reorganizations are happening. Calls going on today about major changes

How many people in a work group have to leave before HR decides to look at the Manager?

I have many years with the company and have witnessed many changes of every possible kind but the changes made over the past several years since McAdam left have seemed to be those which have most negatively impacted the business. When people say... — read more 

Travel dramatically cut back immediately. Backfills closed. No more contractor hires. Guess what's coming next?

I am a newer employee and always was under the impression that Verizon was the greatest of all the carriers. However, every call I get is a port out from people saying the service used to be excellent until recently. What happened and why don’t they... — read more
