RTO Exception

If you are not returning to the office via the way of exception watch out. It is not a matter of "if" but WHEN you will be laid off. The corporate monster wants you under its thumb at all times. Enjoy your time at home while it lasts, dust of your... — read more 

No surprise here

Top stores not making commission, no surprise here …quotas too high so they don’t have to pay us, we all saw this coming. The company is not interested in keeping good employees or paying them! Look at the actions not the word salad they spew on us. — read more

Soon to be all outsourced?

Anyone else's think that Hans' goal is to move all of customer service to outsourced? We have way more outsourced or partner centers than internal cs. It seems like the public doesn't care if their customer service is in the United States anymore... — read more

Downvote Brigade

What's up with the downvote brigade on every post? Is it Corporate? Shills? The new and incredibly terrible overseas customer service department? Feel the Dignity, Inclusiveness, and the constantly Virtual Signaling Intranet page.

Sensitivity and Dignity, my a-s

Honestly, the whole byline notified with 'sensitivity and dignity' is an absolute joke! Try a VP on a group call letting everyone on the call know that they are being RIFd all at once and he was excited about the direction Verizon was headed. What... — read more

layoffs

Yall think retail sales reps in corporate locations are safe from layoffs?

Layoffs

Director did not know and was not able to share the names of the individuals laid off. He only knew the total number from his team. Said he would update us later. I guess local management did not have any input on the selection process.

Good people being laid off, bad people still have jobs!

It would seem that Verizon Wireless has decided to layoff off good quality workers and keep slackers and worthless workers instead. I worked for many years side by side with one of the people that got burned down Thursday. The worker was 1 of the... — read more

Year End

We’re being asked to complete year end accomplishments, months before. Care Operations. Sounds like they’re trying to find people to axe by EOY or very early Q1.
