It’s on a Saturday but I’m not seeing the 31st listed as a holiday.

Don't fill it out. Deny them their toys.

Rumor Verizon will be mandating the jab.

They want us to fail. Can't fix the ipad point of sale systems we've had for years yet they can spend tons of money of everything else and expect us to do more. Failed activation orders daily.

Personally, I don't think we will ever have staffing like we used to, but I wonder if there is an optimist who thinks we will?

T Mobile has two class action lawsuits in the work related to the recent data breach.

Hi V-Teamers…what is the current time off policy for work from home employees who test positive for Covid? Is Covid leave still a thing if not feeling well and have a positive test result?

Why do people even complain about working here? The previous question is not something you need to answer; just something to think about. This is a very good company compared to the rest of the world's corporate. It's very difficult to find something... — read more 

I'm in b2b and was told to expect longer wait times for all tickets, requests sent in via email, and phone hold times. Reason was that after we combined the coe and bgco, we laid off a bunch of them. True?

I’m in CSSC- is anyone else wondering where all the calls are and why we’re getting so much surplus? At first, it was offered from 5-7- hardly anyone getting it. And then gradually more time granted to more people; including low seniority reps in the... — read more 

It’s amazing how much retail has changed in the last few years. Now, if we have someone call in sick we are screwed. Most days we have 4 reps on the floor, and our queues grow to one hour or more on the regular. Considering our pay is team based and... — read more 

I've seen employees mistreated so badly and they keep putting up with it. No amount of poor working conditions, unrealistic expectations, horrible treatment by managers, and whatever else is enough to get them to walk away. Verizon does not pay... — read more

I don't get it. Several outlets reported that TMO suffered a massive data breach impacting 100 million customers, yet their stock was only off 3%. What do you think would happen to VZ or Apple or any other tech company if that happened to... — read more 

WFH announcement today.

Why would the company think its BAU and why would the union agree ,are they going wait until their employees and members start to get sick and god forbid die.where is the leadership on both sides.

Now they’re saying we have to go in two days a week starting next month. Why?

Verizon had better come up with some hazard pay this time for those of us who can't work from home.

Do you think there will be any significant changes after her departure?

I quit a few months ago and I'm finally starting to recover from the damage Verizon inflicted on me. I was constantly belittled by my manager and talked down to like I am a kid and not somebody who knew my job ten times better than he did. I tried to... — read more 

Hans has made it clear..no vaping on conference calls and no valing on company grounds. Come on Hans. Bull fe--s

I worked for the company for 16 years. Since 2015 the company has really gone down hill as an employee. I made it through countless rounds of layoffs. I worked with some of the most intelligent wonderful people that are all gone now. 2018 they cut... — read more 

The amount of work they expect us to do is unrealistic. Every time somebody leaves we end up picking up their work. These days when I get home, all I can do is hit the bed right away. All my energy is spent at work, there's nothing left in me for... — read more 

Just talked to a couple new hires and they are only getting paid a couple dollars over minimum wage. Why would anyone want to do this, work part time and get a commission check that’s less than a thousand dollars. This has become a clerk job for... — read more 

retail used to be fun, and exciting- work as hard as you can and it’s attainable to make real money. Now we have less than 1/4 of the staff we had a few years ago and it seems business hasn’t slowed much. Waits often are over an hour in the store... — read more 

Are you not following what's been going on? Do you really think they're going to approve RTO at this point? I think we're safe for a good six months to a year before they even consider it again. So many companies have already backtracked on their RTO... — read more 

Tell me why they canceled most awaited update? What’s your guess ?

It’s well known that the unions are negotiating to keep Work From Home permanent. CWA 1101 was the last holdout and they’re finally on board.

Who will be responsible if someone catches “delta” variant from Verizon office location and passes it to their unvaccinated children?

Is it the union or company pushing this..I think more of the outside forces will be getting sick with the new covid surge

It wouldn't be possible to fire a large number of people who would oppose the vaccine and return to the office? Or is this perhaps one of the possible scenarios after all?

Is there a pa surplus list. I can only find NY, NJ ,VA and MA.

So there is a 1000 new COVID-19 cases in Virginia. It’s only getting worse and everywhere else. I wonder what Verizon will do. People don’t want to be vaccinated. Can Verizon force a vaccine mandate on its employees? If so will it even matter because... — read more
