I'm a solutions manager and it's been brought to my attention that the Great Lakes Region has been disconnecting more lines than it is actually adding. We're in the negative's for growth in the company YTD... What now??? Maybe they can put some more... — read more 

I work in a Corp wireless location, customer came in with a shirt that's part of our uniform policy. I had asked him which store he worked in (assuming it was a corp location), definitely was shocked when he told me he worked for a reseller. Anyone... — read more 

There's been talk and whispers about many wireless reps and managers talking with unions and trying to become union before they begin more store closings. Lots of smaller stores especially. Look for it within the next month to 2. It's happening.

Gatt rate went down again for the 4th quarter...to 2.80. This is even lower than it was last October when they offered an eisp (2.86). Everyone's pension just went up!!

Anyone hear anything about any wireless rep layoffs or store closings or any smaller stores closing or turning to indirect stores? If so this year or next? Quota is outrageous we need to stand together and do something about it. Don't mess with the... — read more 

The layoff for wireless enterprise sellers and their managers will be out shortly. 25 gross add a month for a 200k employee does not make sense.

I haven't heard that they will be cut, it just seems like the lowest hanging fruit for Verizon to cut. The position seems to make a lot for what we do. I feel like the Outlook isn't great for this position. Just wondering if they will go hybrid like... — read more

You heard it here first. Some of the most expensive real estate we own in the west. It's been fun.

Just got word that wireless managers from other regions are being sent to Texas to help

Have you noticed everyone passing out water to a few people or visiting a shelter are posting it all over social media! They have to make sure everyone knows. Verizon teaches us to brag about EVERYTHING! People in Houston are really hurting but we... — read more 

Verizon has a cash flow problem, they can't afford their debt and they apparently have cut the wireless side to the bone. The corporations 2 largest expenses are real estate and payroll, so a massive offer and the subsequent closing or selling off of... — read more

A Verizon lifer, Suzette Walker climbed from high school intern to “turf” engineer over more than three decades at the phone giant, compiling a stellar work record but for one apparent blemish: a poor employee evaluation in 2013 when she took... — read more 

Wouldn't it be nice if after this holiday weekend....we came back and found out that they were announcing an EISP!!

I'm hearing rumors of an eisp in October 2017, November 2017 and now February 2018. Which is it? Does anyone have solid info or are people just trolling?

Watch the video... What other company does this sound like? http://money.cnn.com/2017/08/31/investing/wells-fargo-fake-accounts/index.html

Anyone hear any new eisp rumors with reliable sources recently? I heard two rumors a few weeks ago but nothing since. One rumor said one was coming soon but had no other information....another said October but I don't know if they meant an... — read more 

Your severance is composed of three parts. 1 Two weeks/year with 35 weeks max. Severance base pay is calculated by adding base pay to target STI (10, 12 or 20%). Eg: If actual base pay is 80 K and STI is 12%, then severance base pay is 89.6 K 2... — read more 

Who thinks hurricane Harvey will be a excuse to close down majority of corporate stores in Houston area? Good luck down there from okc 🙏🙏🙏🙏

This is what he pitched to Lowell to show he knows what those Millennials want. https://vimeo.com/dissolve/tiagma

Not sure what's going on????

Anyone heard anything? I've heard they are cutting the bottom 10 to 20 percent in solution experts.

Any layoffs for Telematics R&D division??

Problem in this company is lack of innovation. Too many "cannot do" versus "we can do". IPTV is a great product and just like any other product, it takes development and innovative thought processes. Google, Samsung, and Apple are examples of going... — read more 

The center I am in is mostly empty & from what I hear so are most of the others. Any word on more call center closing?

It doesn't matter who calls out VZ - the arrogance of the org is just too great. The Verizon elites could care less as long as Execs line their pockets. It's a company filled with hypocrisy - let's give phones to domestic violence victims, but let's... — read more 

Sitting in a bar with my buddies, hearing IPTV is dead in the water. Too complicated and too costly. I think it was too late, if you ask me. Hope Lowell has a Plan Z. Oh wait, Marni may decide to go buy Disney now.

Since the latest contract was for four years (retroactive to Aug 2015) wouldn't Verizon start priming the pump this spring with EWA selections? Just curious is I need to plan. I was EWA last year and it definitely seems like "once an EWA always an... — read more

Things are way too quiet. What's up?

I just heard a rumor that they found a buyer for the Charlestown Chiefs....some retirement community in Florida....

Will anymore corporate stores be closing down this year or auctioned off to indirect? if so does anyone know what areas or what the determining factors are?

I was out on maternity leave and my department was being laid off. They said I couldn't look for jobs within VZW while out. Is this true? Has anyone been able to look or interview while out?

The new plans rolling out are a joke. I would love to be in the room when this rolled out to see the kind of idiots that think this is a good idea and what our customers want. Verizon is going down the crapshoot. Im wondering when we wont be a... — read more 

What are your thoughts on EISP in 2018?

Quota is ridiculous so many reps zero traffic its geared to barely hit a check if you're lucky. Someone is making some good money and its not the front line anymore.
