PBGC rate increased to .5%. Time to check your lump sum pension. Anybody think Verizon will make a change in the pension calculation to avoid an exodus?

I am approaching TMUS about having a plan for retirees from VZ, which would be quite a coup for them and the retirees.

Congratulations another transformation is amongst us. With the union strike around the corner Hans has decided to also roll out VZ 3.0 along with another VSP. As an HR leader I’m appalled and disappointed. Will happen in early 2023.

Then isn’t it more logical that all levels of employees should be affected easily. Or maybe the management should be affected even more because they earn more. What I see whenever layoffs come is that regular employees only get affected. They throw... — read more

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%).
