Guys… those rumors everyone’s been whispering about? They’re actually happening. Tomorrow there’s an emergency all-hands at 10 UK time where they’re dropping the news on how the reorg is smashing EMEA. Brace yourselves.
The Vote NO group.
I believe the vote NO is growing. As some locals have come out against this extension. Do you really think this agreement will get voted down? I see both sides arguments. Either way, make your voice heard.
R2B Changes
Can't seem to get questions answered. Leadership doing the information trickle method, like the government does with bad news. Will quotas be dropping since retail partnership is severing? Right now quotas in SMB are near equal (sometimes more)... — read more
Don’t hesitate to lawyer up!
Here’s a piece of advice for those still at Verizon: don’t hesitate to consult with an employment lawyer promptly when your management does something illegal. It’s been my experience that they get away with things because employees tend to let... — read more

Does This Proposed Agreement Protect Retirees From Financial Ruin?
I have a concern regarding the tentative agreement in the Northeast. I realize we paid a heavy price in 1989 and, as a result of that sacrifice, were able to keep essentially cost-free medical benefits for the next two-and-a-half decades. However... — read more
Customer experience team for digital and app
Verizon is trying to improve every place possible but how about customer experience ? That team is really bad and they do not want feedback from anyone. They think they really know it all. There are so many of them As an employee, I can’t even... — read more
AD/D/SD With 2-3 Direct Reports
Do you really think the AD/D/SD having only 2 to 3 direct reports should be gone? There are tons of them.
How layoffs will likely unfold
There will ALWAYS be layoffs. It is the Verizon way. It's also the Verizon way to pretend they don't happen, and do them under the table. The big one on 11/20 was too big to ignore, and got national media coverage. But going forward, I suspect the... — read more
Anil cannot fix Churn - he is on chopping block
Increasing bill didn't work Matching paper bill didn't work Delaying port outs didn't work and Dan had to back out That organization cannot solve churn, they need expertise ASAP!!!
Most difficult team to work with in Verizon
Can you name a team who is most difficult to work with ? Basically nothing can be done with this team. Keeps on adding friction to others work and won’t deliver anything by themselves.
Are we having more layoffs or not?
With so many contradicting stories, I have no idea what to think anymore.
Why pay union dues?
We pay our dues and when the contract is due, another benefit gets eliminated. Why do union leaders make so much money and NOT produce for the members?
2008 is the year the older members gave up on newer.
2008 the healthcare went away for new hires 2012 the pension went away 2016 techs started to become anti union and cross the line 2019 extended this cr-p 2022 techs become completely anti union. They threaten to cross the line if there’s a... — read more
Chro LinkedIn return
She’s posting regularly now again. This last one is for women, but not a word for black history month back in February. Is one group worth mentioning and not the other?
I'm finally out
I quit on Friday and it scared me way more than a job this bad ever should. I guess they trained us well to believe that this is as good as it gets. I guess I'll soon find out if they were right.
2026 more RIF to come !!!

With the amount of business fraud these agents do and the travel required for the role I don’t see how this position can survive much longer is it really profitable
Toxic Work Place
Mass exodus happening across the retail space. Employees giving the middle finger to Sr Directors and directors for treating them like sh-t, threatening their jobs, overworking front line, creating their own policies. Allowing fraud and major... — read more
I got my sanity back after being laid off
They cut me in November. I admit, at the time, it felt personal. Looking back several months later, it was the best thing that could have happened. For the last at least five years there, the environment was toxic. The peer group I started with was... — read more
We all have Stockholm Syndrome

If you think we're done with layoffs, you're not paying attention
Leadership is laser-focused on OPEX cuts, and every signal points to around 15,000 jobs still being on the line. That's the number floating around, the one nobody's refuted, the one we all know is coming for us eventually. Whether it happens next... — read more

New commission structure
Not feeling that great about the new commission structure. It feels like it’s set to cap at the new at risk. It will be nearly impossible to make the same as if there were still multipliers.
Thread about GTS getting deleted
I am noticing that threads about certain GTS leaders getting deleted. Just for asking if they are leaving or not. I do not see threads getting deleted for any other leaders.

What a joke, absolutely tone deaf Execs making this stuff up. RIF 13k, now to appreciate you learn how to use AI tools
Apologize for the layoff rumors
I hope the folks who predicted a layoff every week since the last one in November will finally give up and apologize to all current employees for needlessly strirring the pot. It's March and no sings or talk of a layoff. Nada. Zilch. Not one AVP or... — read more

Cooling off period
Last day for me was 12/19/2025. Have an opportunity for recruiter firm for work with Frontier. Opinion on would the cooling off period apply to this situation. The work would have nothing to do with merger.
VERIZON PAYROLL CALCULATED OT WRONG FOR NO TAX ON OT
Has anyone heard about payroll calculating your OT that you can deduct for the no tax on OT wrong. Hearing rumblings that they didn't include any call outs because of the E11,E21, etc codes used on your timesheet. Are they going to be re-issuing W2's... — read more
