This is going to be similar to what Elon did to Twitter when he bought it. "To the long-suffering men and women in the trenches of the Verizon workforce, this may sound like a new commander's call for another big push days after the last fruitless... — read more 

We all know the answer, it's the lazy and d-mb people at top with no idea about the work we do. Funny thing is, they are in control of the list again.

There was a lot of noise and fanfare about this but there still seem to be thousands of managers in Finance and a lot of spreadsheets…has anything really changed?

Is it true the that Verizon wants to RIF most employees in non-directional locations in late 2026 and 2027 as part of the broader strategy to go lean? Now that we have three main directional locations, Dan wants to accelerate the plan to shutdown... — read more 

Yes, it's true that RIF is due later this month. However, I heard that since Dan wants to make the org extremely lean, they are also planning for a VSP in 2Q'2026. Anyone heard about that? Wouldn't that be interesting? Trim the fat once and then... — read more

Wireline safe for November 20th? I talked to a leader and they said they think it’ll be more WLS focused.

At Verizon, we are always listening to what our customers are saying as we focus on giving them the best experience at incredible value.

Would be a great cost saving and I don’t think they add much when there are already managers,senior managers,ADs and Directors Get rid of some of the fat and Verizon might have a chance

It is crazy hearing about RIFs when we have so many executives and most people have no idea what they even do. CEO has a meeting, then the SVP has a meeting, then the VP, then the Sr director, etc. All just say the same things and ask what did you... — read more

I looked on the intranet but can’t find the info. If you get RIF, do you get VZ non-COBRA insurance for the same length as your severance weeks? Or does VZ insurance go away on our last day of work? Thanks.

Why are we not seeing any WARN notifications? Is Verizon working on another VSP?

After 28 years, Dec 31 2024 was it for me. Cannot tell you how relieved I do not have to deal with the ups and downs of VZ. The constant every year layoffs, and BS of the senior managers, directors who protect their buddies, and their "click"... — read more 

I still remember when Hans was first announced as CEO. I did some research and saw that his tenure at Ericsson ended in turmoil, which immediately raised red flags for me. My instincts told me he might bring similar issues to Verizon—and after eight... — read more

Anybody in Finance worried? They have automated so many reports it feels like they are preparing to RIF us.

I heard people got let go today. At least some. Anyone care to share their story?

So wonder Dan is realizing how useless Most upper and lower management is in wireline & wireless .Maybe he has realized only the people who are in some sort of hands on position are of any value.The whole reason we lose market share in... — read more

If you could say bye bye to Verizon, where would you go? What would you do?

Why would Verizon waste time and resources asking employees to add their accomplishments if they’re getting rid of them? The portal is opening around November 24th. Whoever got the email might be safe — but who knows

Really sheds a light on how unserious our leadership team has been for the past 5+ years, it's too bad he's going to fire my a-s because this is the first time I've actually heard someone at that level make any sense whatsoever

What’s really happening is offshoring and cutting headcount. Once we reach the next “lean” stage and the workload triples, we’ll all discover that no AI actually took on any of the work. At least not in the sense of replacing anyone. I’ve yet to see... — read more 

Is it a coincidence that as soon as Verizon partnered with these two Indian companies everything started getting much worse? Or am I being unfair?

Has anyone received an email asking to put self assessment for year end 10/29 night arround 11:40pm and then got recalled 10/30? Is it a hint for something?

I'm so thankful Hans is gone. That dude was an embarrassment and ran VZ even further into the gutter. His DEI nonsense was not appreciated. He cried for George Floyd during an internal company webcast and THEN gave $1,000,000 to Al Sharpton's... — read more

After that disastrous, blunt, outlook-vision, do we need to bother going in ? Why bother? Who cares about RTO
