Just got told by my AD that her last day is 12/19

Anything on CA side of thing yet?

I guess they are truly looking after the employees being laid off. That is why I am moving all my 6 lines to T-Mobile. Based on my initial calculations it will come out less than what I am paying with the employee discount. Let that sink in :)

Same news as others posted.

So, it seems that higher-ups have been reading this site, as they have extended the employee discount to 52 weeks from the last day on payroll. Therefore, don't be too quick to disconnect your service. Unless of course, you don't want to give VZ any... — read more

How many are gone?

Who in TPD is affected?

Any news from Midwest? anyone getting cut? I hope everyone the best rn! God bless!

I’m in California and I thought we were supposed to get a 60 day notice vs a 30 day notice. Is this something I should reach out to HR?

Anyone in supply chain affected?

Been coming to this place for 5 years .

This is crazy. West coast news will starting hitting within the hour.

Sorry if this was already asked and answered, but posts are coming in too fast and I can't keep up. Are people getting any extended medical coverage as part of the severance package?

Anyone know if california has been affected? Heard market president steven keller was promoted to customer. wondering what the damage is looking like beyond that

Been here over a decade. TPD band 6. Last day 12/19.

They want us to help shift all our responsibilities and tie up loose ends. I don’t want to look at my work computer let alone help my manager right now.

Anyone in the Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Albany area affected?

Got the webex from my boss's boss. I'm out. Last Day 12/20 on payroll. Severance portal opens at 1pm. Corporate Finance Ops. I'm 53. 9 years with company. 3 years as contractor before that. Band 7.

I want to start downloading all my necessary info like paystubs, benefits, reviews, etc to my personal laptop

Are we safe? Or know anyone affected?

The folks in NJ are getting their 90 day WARN notice. In Massachusetts only 30 days, despite the 60 days state law. What gives?

Anyone know who is gone? Heard Shankar but not sure if it’s true.

What’s the severance package like? Enhanced and 3 weeks per year like it’s been in the past? Standard 2 weeks per year? Or is it really just 1 week per year like some rumors have mentioned?

Not even a year here and I got my walking papers. I'm VGS. It was fun knowing you all, I guess.

Relieved tbh - My soul was being crushed and the universe rescuing me because of it.

PAY SOME DEBT THAT WAY, YOU MAD MAN! WE BETTER NOT HEAR THAT YOU ARE ALL USING THOSE WHEN YOU DECIDE TO PAY VISITS TO SEE WHAT IS LEFT OF A ONCE-GREAT COMPANY

Organizational updates meeting with Nasrin at 930am EST. She said if you’re on here that means you’re safe. Looks like all the BISO’s got axed and will be under 1 BISO now.

This company is absolutely mad. They're just throwing in the towel to T-Mobile.

Can they cut 13k people in a single day?

About 80% of the whole VCG PSM organization was let go. That includes Program and Process Orchestration (PPO), Portfolio, and Project Management (PMO). Good luck out there!

Band 6 - Lake Mary - AID . OUT

Got the axe this morning. Band 8 Engr. Was doing the work for higher band team members. It is ironic that Dan wants to get leaner and perform better but keeps bloat that has been here for nearly a decade, but kicks younger employees to the curb.

Was told 1/3 of the top 300 were impacted.

Verizon business group If you were impacted, please post your details here. Letting us know your position would help greatly, especially us folks in the West coast.

I got cut and I’m super upset. I was recognized numerous times and was a top performer… and truth be told, I REALLY loved my job and what I did. Loved my market team. Just truly su-ks.. I know cuts are still being made… the way they did this RIF was... — read more 

The only thing worth anything in the retirement package is you can carry over your sup life insurance. All else seems expensive as cra*. But they do now have an option to get through ACA.
