Use this thread to discuss
Rarely is anyone interested in working here anymore
When I applied here, I thought I would not be able to get a job because the interest was very high. Now we have been waiting for months to replace our colleague. The reason is certainly not that no one is talented enough to do that job, but I... — read more

What happened to training?
Verizon used to be great at training new employees, but now it feels like they're just thrown into the deep end with no instructions whatsoever. I'm getting tired of having to teach people things they should already know by the time they reach me... — read more

Is Anyone on unpaid leave?
Does anyone know if people have been forced on unpaid leave for not providing their vac status or not getting the shot on Dec 27th. I haven’t heard anything.
What a disappointment!
Although I was thinking of leaving right after a few months, I stayed a little longer thinking that it was just me and that perhaps I needed a little more time to adapt to the dynamics and the new company culture. I really thought this company was... — read more
Don’t trust The techs! From a former tech.
They’ve proven themselves to be selfish, slimey, and have no loyalty. They rat on their brothers and sisters, always trying to make themselves look good to their foreman. They weasel themselves out of jobs, preferring to sleep over work. If you’re... — read more

What percentage when moving up bands?
Is it capped around 10%? Can anyone go from a 7T to 6V and does that increase the percentage or would you get the same as if you moved to 7v?
Worse than micromanagement
Some may not be affected much by this,,, but I am much less productive when I have to work under tremendous control and supervision. I’m not new to this company so that micromanagement might make sense, nor am I a slacker who doesn’t do his job. I... — read more
