Since Verizon desires to be a green company one would think management would mandate work at home rather than leaving it up to the executives in each respective organization (Directors deliver the message, but they don't set policy). Also, add in... — read more 

Verizon Ventures invested in CoolerScreens, perhaps same thing will come to Vz Retail stores : https://www.cnn.com/2022/03/12/business/walgreens-freezer-screens/index.html

Unless you are a retail customer (Walgreens, Walmart) in metropolitan areas the 5G ultra coverage is virtually non existent. T mobile is way ahead. Any idea what the rollout and coverage will look like at the end of 2022, 2023 and 2024? We are... — read more

Maybe something would change for the better for once. Employees in stores deserve so much more than they get, and there’s so much expected of them for the same pay rate for working at a gas station. it’s ridiculous

That is the problem. The new "globalist" kumbaya nonsense has done absolutely nothing for cash flow, just like 2.0! It is time for the company to focus on its core competencies instead of promoting its core incompetencies.

Verizon (VZ +0.2%) has announced a "Plus Play" platform that it sees as a gateway for subscribers to manage a growing number of streaming services and other lifestyle subscriptions - notably including a partnership with Netflix (NFLX -2.8%).

Of course Verizon cares about Ukraine! It’s a country known for outsourced cheap IT labor. Probably care about Ukraine more than their own employees.

I thought I did the right thing by coming here. Now it turns out that I came here from a company that was better than this. There is always some high school drama here. I'm really sick of it. I hope not many people made the same mistake as I did by... — read more

The IRS changed the 72T rate to read “up to 5%”. That is that rate used to calculate how much money you can withdraw without paying a penalty. With the lump sum decreasing with rate change I suggest all look into it.

Ironically, I got a 4.25% raise after deciding not to put in so much effort anymore. Earlier, when I was engaged and gave my best, I didn't get a raise. Anyone else with such an experience? And yes, thanks to Verizon for the raise this time, but I... — read more 

Strong chance vz lowers dividend going forward,lots of talk in office.

After 7 years with the company, they give me a performing rating and only 1.5% raise. I reached out to a union rep and they’re supposed to get in touch with me. Sc--w Verizon and their cr---y pay raises. I’ll keep you all updated.

How much pay base increase did you get this year? Got 4.25% raise but inflation is 30% higher. This is ridiculous.
