Topics regarding layoffs at Verizon Wireless

Retail is “fire”

Love this job, love my team, we work hard and play hard. Team commissions checks been hitting lately!

Inbelievavle

Did i just hear this correctly? Did the director just say he wanted us to slam set up and go? Seriously ?? This needs to get out to the media

comp plan?

I'm new and I trying to figure out how much we make off a single new line sale? It's not very clear how it works. Seems really convoluted for a sales job? Not sure I want to stick around if this is the comp plan they have. They seem to raise the bar... — read more 

Moving abroad

I currently live in the US and have a corporate position at VZ, technically deemed hybrid, but I'm totally remote. Question is, can I move to Europe and maintain my employment or are there laws that prohibit me from working at VZ in another country? — read more

How much overtime do you work?

Although I still work long hours because I'm trying to keep my job and the manager doesn't care how much overtime it requires to meet his expectations, it still seems to me that last year at this time I was doing much more overtime.

Manon Out!!

Finally they kicked out Manon! Makes me wonder what would it take for the board to say that Hans needs to take responsibility for the s***show?

Kudos

Just want to give a shoutout to the rep in San Antonio who really painted an accurate picture of the micromanaging culture of what Verizon has become on her exit. She had the insight to “bcc” her email to her Retail Manager to several people in the... — read more

Company recovery

I sort of understand those who doubt that the company will recover after it sank so quickly. Are there any optimists who think that there is still some strategy that would effectively help this place to recover?

Verizon Compliance, you want things change call here!

The lion, the witch and the audacity of leadership.

Not sure if anyone remembers the posts that were on here about a random survey for benefits but I think my leadership just went above and beyond when it comes to being sc-m bags. During our weekly team meeting he sent a link about benefits and then... — read more

Any word on VCG?

Seen lots of people get fired for pretty random and odd reasons lately. With Black Friday being a dud, and calls sometimes 3-4 minutes in between (unheard of before) and VCG becoming every department rolled into one, what gives? Anyone hear or know... — read more

Verizon ratings are at C level, submit your feedback

https://www.comparably.com/companies/verizon#ceo-rating-breakdown CEO rating = C+, that's pathetic! Skinny Jeans no one likes you even worse when you come in your d-mb videos saying Vteamers and no one cares as you only get about 7 views.

After all phones have Esim capability and SIM cards are phased out, what is the point to have stores? Verizon could just put up pick up boxes in every city and customers could pick up their items from the pick up locations along with their... — read more

Free service? Test drive? Wtf!!

Look it up. Verizon test drive. Why haven't we been told about this? I found out watching a YT video. We are basically giving away free service to new customer for 1 month. No credit check, no deposit, no obligation at all. If Hans can't grow by... — read more

Seems like HR is backing up their Corrupt AMs & DOSs

It’s somewhere in the stores, if one is intelligent enough, they’ll understand themselves. So, is there a reason “WHY” there is an HR. Oh I see, to fill in the space & keep backing up the companies corrupt practices then. Verizon HR is just there... — read more

Is their goal to make even more of us quit?

It is my impression that the leadership thinks there are still too many of us. I really don't know what they expect to happen if they mess with benefits, given that it's one of the very few things that still keeps many of us here? I won't stop... — read more

Severance envy

Meta gave employees 16 weeks PLUS two weeks per year AND 6 months of health insurance coverage. And what do we get? Our leadership would be happy if they could get away with kicking us out on our behinds with nothing. As it is, they give us the bare... — read more 

How are things after the layoffs?

Curious to know how is the morale and the work load after they let go of team members? I am still waiting to hear about the next steps. No one seems to have a plan on what needs to be done.

Verizon Holiday in a nut shell

In the retail stores it will be like this : Even though it’s pretty much the busiest season for retail traffic there will be zero leadership on the sales floor. Either the SM’s or GM will be on calls (why do they have so many calls during the busiest... — read more
