I am hoping it's all over, I see people are still getting calls though.

Just an FYI, I reached out to Costello Silverman attorneys (see below). I'll have my consultation on Friday, will update you on how it goes. My case is a bit different if compared to others but I will be asking general questions too. Not sure if... — read more

I was informed I was impacted but have not received the email with the links, etc. Anyone have the link to the severance portal?

Anyone know what sort of reorg we’ll be seeing or when it will be announced? Will wireless and wireline ops finally merge? What happens now. Of course, I feel bad for everyone impacted today and wish you the best. You will find something better in... — read more 

Any legal advice on why my severance package doesn't payout the full 2024 STI and only a 30 day notice for Ashburn VA office?

US based Tier 2 tech department just got extremely thinned out. More and more US based employees are being let go. Think about your future because Verizon won’t. If you havnt heard anything by EOD I’d stop stressing as 30 day notice is Dec 19th which... — read more 

Does anyone know when the severance checks will be sent or direct deposited? I am trying to figure out that if my last day is 12/19 when will the checks or deposit be dated. Will it be dated 12/19/25. Or 4 weeks later so we get paid in January 2026?... — read more 

I’m curious , because I have heard of really smart people being let go in engineering and then some that’s been here 20 + years and then some who were just hired 3 or less years ago. Did managers have a say or were we really selected by someone who... — read more 

My store was one of the stores affected. A Retailer is taking over. I joined Verizon not even 2 years ago. The new company is saying I can make a lot more money, but I doubt it. I wanna hear from retail not people who never worked retail Verizon... — read more

How are things looking for VBG sales?

Pi-s poor severance 2 times years of services smh

I left VZ enterprise a few years ago and I will share this. One thing that was tiresome were the constant RIF's., I started with Verizon back in 2010...they had 164000 employees...just to put that into perspective, the company continues to shrink... — read more 

Some generic fu--ing script and didn’t have the ba--s to even say bye. All that hard work for nothing. Hope this place goes into the gutter

Heard india team will have huge layoffs in December first week. Seems dan wants to cut down on outsourcing

I guess they see me as having one foot in the grave already.

Petty? Yes. Hear me out though. My 1 line, phone and watch was running up the score gradually on my bill. About $98 a month or so. Without the employer discount, my bill is now going to be $170! Give me a break. Even if there's no magical ethical... — read more 

Anyone else seeing the same? Maybe I am not looking at this the way I should. Please help.

Were VZ execs too concerned with us revealing salaries? That was a good thread.

I am pretty sure they will disclose age numbers as it's legally required. I wanted to see if we can poll folks that were let go and how many years of experience with Verizon they had and how old are they. I'll start, I am 55 and I've been with... — read more 

Because the way these layoffs were structured doesn’t make much sense, nor how most of the people were selected. The chaos that’s going to follow is going to be impossible to manage.

I took a look at the numbers and saw there is a HUGE disparity on the amount. If they want to be honest in their dealings - pay the higher number

I am safe, and I dont feel great. I feel destroyed. So many people around me are gone, and my heart is broken. I can't even understand how we move forward without some of the groups we have lost today

Any Northern California people affected?

Nasrin laid off a bunch of cyber sec workers in a Group Webex this morning. Way to keep it classy.

I have logged in to the severance portal and I see that the STI amount is 0? Does anyone get it?

Not "just this once." Not to help out. Just don't. They're counting on it. Let them feel the consequences of their actions for once when things don't get done.

Has anyone heard about VcG customer service/loyalty? I don’t go back til December 21 st.

This company is on a death spiral.

I just got a call. My store is not closing but I was still laid off due to “restructuring” Dec 31st is my date!

Or even if your store is in the closing, you may be losing headcount. Cutting bottom 5% little or specialists? True?

The part about being laid off is knowing Verizon is still hiring. It feel like a huge betrayal. Many jobs could have been saved if things were REALLY BEING LOOKED AT!

Anything happening with EUS ?

Off work today sweating bullets. I know my store is not closing but I’m not sure if full time reps are being let go

Anyone know if the CMO organization is affected?

We have always put customers first! Oh wait it’s Dan on Horseback. …so sorry and heartbroken to read all these posts today. Best of luck to everyone impacted by this disaster to Verizon.

They’re not real contributors to the workforce. They bring nothing to the company, and the only reason they’re still around is the cheap internal politics backed by upper management like Kalyani, Senthil, and Vivek. It’s embarrassing that they’ve... — read more
