For those that are impacted by the reduction in force, please check or have someone go over the severance agreement to see if there's a timeframe set for a non-compete clause. This would include verbiage regarding a timeframe of which you may be... — read more 

I can confirm 179 stores to be closed and down to two markets West and East. Not 100% sure what that means for head counts but 2 MPs left and not sure if 2 RVPs will retain their positions.

Anyone know of any rifs for case management?

In today's job search, is having a LinkedIn account a must? Does it improve your chances of getting hired, even if it's freshly made? Been at Verizon for over two decades and I never thought I'd need it, but I'm not so sure anymore.

Waiting to find out whether I’ll have a job to go back to weeks after a traumatic delivery… while still in FMLA/STD… AND a colicky newborn… so fun! The way they’re doing this RIF is crueler than usual.

How many others have pivoted from "oh, God, please don't let it be me," to "fu-k it, give me my severance" since this all started?

Will Verizon be broken up and sold? I think it's days are numbered.

When does Verizon notify the New Jersey state regarding the number of people being laid-off and the date when they get laid off or the date they are off payroll? Currently, I don't see Verizon on the NJ WARN Notice for 2025 for Nov'25 or Dec'25 or... — read more 

I've been told by a few people I have nothing to worry about because I'm one of the newer hires and this layoff will target those with higher pay, meaning people who've been at Verizon for a while. Is this true? I'd like to believe it, but I'm too... — read more

Is Verizon India impacted because the news mentions US layoffs?

Are layoffs taking into account the immigration status of employees? I don’t wish a layoff for anyone but when it comes to it I would appreciate if US citizens get preference.

Sorry that were all here again trying to figure out how these decisions are being made. Ive been here 20+ years, worked for a lot of leaders at the top (some currently still there) and without giving out too many details -- unfortunately this is far... — read more 

Accounting, fpa, reporting&policy?

What’s happening right now is despicable. It’s also a rude wake up call … no company is safe. This whole “we care about you, V Teamer” is bullsh-t. Verizon doesn’t care about you. Perhaps you’ve given the company your blood sweat and tears for the... — read more

Unless Dan gets rid of these two ., nothing will ever change for this company

Severance packages for laid-off Verizon employees are not one-size-fits-all—they vary based on factors like tenure, job band (e.g., below Band 5 vs. senior levels), union status, and whether the layoff is voluntary (VSP) or involuntary (RIF). Based... — read more 

If the union folks pass on this lame offer will there be a forced reduction? Contrary to what most of you believe. We don’t all have a no layoff clause. And we are not all under the same union contract.

Good luck and best wishes to all of us! The worst thing at the worst time of the year! Shame on you Board and Dan! Had the board been stronger and not rubber stamping all of Hans’ hires and ideas - we may not be in this mess.

Will we be distributed the stock grants awarded over the past three years if let go?

It looks like if you are over 40 you have 21 days to consider your layoff package and if it is part of a mass layoff you have 45 days. https://www.eeoc.gov/history/older-workers-benefit-protection-act-1990

...not sure if that means we are safe or they are expecting a lot off call offs.

I reached out to friends and am hopeful to have a job lined up within next 2 weeks. If that's the case, would a RIF work out in my favor? Take the severance and push out my start date until I'm off VZ payroll? If it is beneficial to me... Could I... — read more
