Why is every other post on who said what on some all hands and ask us anything slack… Can we keep this layoff?? Here is side hustle biz idea… just start an add site; related to VZ…
EMEA folks
Guys, look there is a plan.. plan is signed off (hence all hands today) The plan is to close, exist or sell most Of EMEA
On the Q&A call, they mentioned another All Hands at the end of the month. What was the date?
I didn’t catch the date, though he said it. Did anyone else notice that part? He said something like “we’ll have a better idea of the next stages”
Worst answer came from Naanccyy
She gave word salad on what they want to do without a plan how to achieve it. Just BS without any weightage.. Really liked D. Gold answer that he wants to focus on “how”.. everyone always talk about what.
VCG ‘ask me anything’ conveniently removed the top question about the future of stock together
Bro, if you’re going to make this an ‘ask me anything’ type of event. Grow a pair and answer the top question, don’t have your staff delete it and pretend it didn’t happen.
Work Stoppage 2026

19 March RIF?
The 19th is just next week. Good Luck everyone!
The cat's out of the bag in EMEA
Sanjiv just hosted an EMEA Town Hall and announced significant reduction in EMEA workforce. Looks like GNT and Security will be hit hard, possibly including divestiture & partnering with other companies, but no doubt all functions and countries... — read more
Goodbye VZB in EMEA
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
Dan su-ks
That is all. That’s the post. Carry on.
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
Stockholm syndrome is a psychological response where a victim begins to identify with, develop positive feelings toward, or even defend their captor. It’s one of those paradoxical quirks of the human brain—essentially a survival mechanism triggered... — read more
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.
