I have been employed for over 20 years at VZ. The culture has changed and they don’t care about you. If you are worried about losing your job look outside. There are lots of jobs out there you just have to look! Or if you don’t care stay with Vz and... — read more

Traditional white collar jobs are being transitioned to AI roles without the premium pay. They started by asking people to use AI for presentations, reports, notes but now they want people to use it to automate their job to eventually put themselves... — read more
Tenured employees are Corrupt but Verizon doesn’t care
Verizon has a horrible work culture, I have worked with some of the most hateful coworkers. People who have been here 20 plus years who treat others with so much hostility and disregard. I don’t even feel they think I am human. Tired of being in... — read more
Spacex is a gift to Dan

Verizon deserves to fail
Laying off local folks while offshoring all they can - that's wrong on so many levels and deserves to have some consequences. I hope customers leave in droves.

Hiring freeze?
I know several in house and external applicants that have applications stuck in progress. Anyone know if we have a hiring freeze? It’s weird to apply for jobs early October late September and not hear ANYTHING for months. Lol
GTS to Dee-loit?
Whatever happened to the story of moving most or all of GTS to Deloitte? Is that plan still on? Delayed? Cancelled?

Extra work and AI training
With team members impacted, and workloads higher than ever, when do we have time to complete the 300 AI trainings that are shoved at us?
Dan Organizational Takeover ala Hans
I still laugh when Hans fired all hus direct reports and announced he will run Consumer after his failed DEI hire. I can see Dan using same playbook and run Postpaid, Value and FWA SFU/MDU line items.
Band 5 with minimal stake in Verizon

For revenue Growth in Q3 VZ + 2.9% ATT + 3.8% TMUS + 6.2% why is dan being lauded as a savior when he is just axing people and doing stock buybacks?
Laying off older workers....
Older workers: Empty nest (kids out of the house, can put more into work if needed), decades of experience, with VZ for decade(s) so would have already been canned if they were not good at their job (recall VZ had 200K+ fulltime employees 15 years... — read more

Newsflash: Every Employee Has A Name
Can you hear me now?
The man lost his "train"?
It was so embarrassed to see the guy lost his "train" on the stage. I guess he forgot to bring his AI assistant as he usually did for most meeting calls to assist him and make him look good.
Every Employee has a name
How about showing some respect and recognition to the people who grind every day to earn those big fat paychecks for executives?
Churn up 4 basis points !!!
On the 3q earnings call, there was churn wording painting the picture you. Churn increased 4 basis points vs 2026q2. On previous q2 call, they compared it to same year Q1.
Losing hope

any word on if she supports return to office or remote?
Take the Money and run
The leadership doesn't care if SpaceX eventually proves to be a 'competitor' to VZ. They will be gone. The Poem CEO won't be around to care for any 'competition'. His job is to cut, cut and cut - offer the best 'value' for the shareholder - and get... — read more
Yay, no layoffs for a while!
I mean, with such strong Q3 results and raised expectations, we should feel safe for a while. There's no need to cut even more folks when we're doing so well. Right? Right? /s
What's the average on raises here?
I'm new here, I'm just wondering what to expect.
pay range
What is the expected pay range for band 6 and below by each band? I feel like I am being underpaid.
Listen up Nerds
The beatings will continue until morale improves (aka Dan gets paid). Erin is repeatedly going to come up with excuses for why we should be thankful for our job while continently pocketing a fat bonus. Unless there’s a strike they won’t budge.
