I heard they opening new wireless centers for us people. I miss my Murfreesboro Mobstas

How is VZ laying off all year round without adding to the NJ Warn List which is against the law https://www.nj.gov/labor/assets/PDFs/WARN/2025_WARN_Notice_Archive.pdf

New research suggests many companies have used return-to-office (RTO) mandates as a tool to reduce headcount. A BambooHR survey of over 1,500 U.S. managers found that one-quarter of C-suite executives admitted they hoped RTO policies would prompt... — read more 

Just heard layoffs coming in those two organizations. Shamedul we have to live like this everyear every quarter. Hans is getting the company to be all off shore. Verizon will not end well in the future.

Word is that a lot of buildings are closing EOY and info went out today. Boston is supposedly on that list … craziness.

20% HC reduction

Almost two hours wasted on the commute. On a good day. Feels like that was the plan from the start, to force people out without paying a dime. People mention real estate/tax incentives as the main driver of RTO, but I think it’s mostly about cutting... — read more 

Any guesses as to the subject(s)

Asking here because I’ll never get a honest answer on company letterhead. You have so much FMLA time (12 weeks) then you have so much Short Term Disability (26 weeks), which can run concurrently. Do people who need to go beyond the protected 12 weeks... — read more 

A company-dominated union, also called a "yellow union," is a worker organization that is controlled or heavily influenced by the employer rather than by the employees it is meant to represent. These unions are often established and directed by... — read more 

I don’t know what titles would be eligible for the EIPP. Hopefully for field techs and COTS. The union has confirmed this.

I want my raise, my healthcare, and job protections. The union can and will get it for us.

I honestly don’t see myself ever going back to the office. What happens if I just dont show up—would they actually fire me? Do they even track badge swipes? Is HR planning to enforce this policy ?

What are we doing about the Band 5s in non strategic sites? They’re cashing chex laughing at the rest of us go back to the office…. What a crock that us staff must adjust to RTO but they still work from home and don’t come in the office. We all... — read more 

Serious question? Or Rumor?

Verizon is dying like Sprint. Bad contracts, no vision, poor leadership. Is Elon the answer?

Wasn’t it great to see the person that represents Verizon to Congress to help offshore jobs, go to Ireland where those American jobs were moved to and celebrate it on LinkedIn? Leadership personified! Exhilarating and exciting indeed. Can’t wait to... — read more 

For those that haven't been in an office for years, what is the general dress code in the Hub locations? Is everyone wearing jeans these days?

How do you think the recent announcement requiring $100,000 per year for H1B visas will impact VZ? Recognizing that existing holders are exempt, what do you think the timing of any impacts will be? Especially interested to hear from any current H1B... — read more 

Massive company wide re org announcing in the next week … anyone know more information ?

What’s the deal with the new badges they are giving everyone? Do they have new tech to scan into the buildings?

Anyone know how location strategy plays into union employees/locations? I get it that their current contract has them working from home, but with management being required to come back, it would stand to reason the union would follow. And the union... — read more 

What is your experience working with and or in that organization?

So what happened to the rumor of a union contract and what’s up with contract extension.Come on someone has to have info

Fair enough, Leslie and Angie. But honestly, the real BS at Verizon hasn’t been the outside noise — it’s been the inside story. Years of layoffs, a wireline business that’s basically gone, and leadership that’s lost the plot. That’s what people are... — read more 

Is there any guidance yet on that date? Thanks.

You start excited and five years later you’re wondering what even happened. It’s all meetings and bureaucracy, zero growth, and no one seems to notice whether you’re actually good at your job. Definitely not what I signed up for.
