My boss said there is chatter that Microsoft Excel/Word/PowerPoint will be removed from everyone's computer. Google will be the new default.

Work has become a complete insane asylum. Happy employee appreciation day for those still here….for now! Everything is great and always has been. Nonstop pointless and chaotic reorgs are our winning strategy. Proud to post it note my love for vz!

What a joke, absolutely tone deaf Execs making this stuff up. RIF 13k, now to appreciate you learn how to use AI tools

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 

Bon fire, Good Will, Mailing it back to Sam and Dan in big box with a large middle finger? Give me your suggestions.

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.

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 

Does anyone think that severance amounts will be impacted for future layoffs?

Last day was 2/20. Already saw my health improve with my BP and stress coming down. My kids see me more and my quality of life without that workload has been wonderful. Universe was good to remove me from that shedshow happening now. Peace out VZ... — read more 

The Smart ones leave, the numbnuts keep drinking the coolaid (AKA KoolAid) expecting severance packages ! Keep waiting or define your future yourself ! YOUR CHOICE !

Anybody on the frontier side that it works .com or incentives start looking. I’ll leave you with that.

Is there any credible information regarding closures of retail locations or conversions? When is this supposed to begin and how big of an impact? Also, for stores that stay open, has anyone heard about changes in leadership structure?

It stands to reason the overall workload is going to be less (but may be more for some people, depending on the job function). The network is being allowed to deteriorate. Not as many real estate people and rf engineers are needed if we are going... — read more 

Just don't be the last one to own it. The network is slowly degrading.... The c-suite folks are already getting out.

Quick question for anyone in New Jersey who was part of the Feb. 20 layoff wave. Did you only receive half of your severance so far? If yes, have you heard anything about when the second half is supposed to hit? Also, any word on the RSU payout... — read more 

PIP has been moved to 30 days instead of the normal 90 days. 30 days to get on pip 90 days to get off pip.….whoever makes these decisions are so out of touch with reality they should be in a mental institution If you don’t hit 50% of your phone... — read more 

Hearing noise about VPs across the company being let go

Again we are being promised another “cost of living adjustment” at the end of the contract. Healthcare is going up. Inflation is on par with the raises so basically we are left with nothing but what we started with.Can someone explain to me why I pay... — read more 

Curious how everyone's workload has been since the cuts. It's been long enough to know the real impact. My team lost just one person, so it's been manageable so far. But I wonder how teams that got cut in half are doing. How bad is it?

Can the Mods create a separate thread or link for the Union folks? Just like VzW has its own...since these folks started posting here, we lost the fundamental topcs....

Last year company/union talks broke off supposedly over the raise in caps for retiree healthcare. Now we have a tentative contract where the info just released does not seem to address this issue at all. Did the company use that memory erasing device... — read more

My iPhone 15 pro needs an upgrade, but I’m wondering if it would make sense to wait for the next Dan layoff so I can get a good deal on a 17pro or the new 18 pro?

You (union) created the two tier system we currently have amongst our work force. The new cps awarded to new hires is not enough, not nearly enough. The contracts are still being geared towards the ones with the 500k pensions... it's infuriating. Im... — read more

The stock is responding well now over 51. Keep your foot on their throats Dan!

Dan said layoffs will not be incremental meaning the 20% reduction was a one time only. This is a black swan event that doesn’t occur frequently. Just relax most of you will be fine!!!

Commission upgrade for sales representatives and assistant managers. Thoughts?

LAYOFFS!!!!

Basically, someone stated that the Nov 20 layoff was some kind of exception to the prorated RSU treatment that involuntary separations receive. That those caught in this particular wave would have all future years (the two tranches for 2027 and the... — read more
