That's the easiest way to cut costs and it's been the crutch of this leadership for years. Don't expect to see that change any time soon. Unless a miracle happens and the entire ELT is replaced with competent people who know what they're doing. I'm... — read more
So...how many esims did you slam today?
From what I heard and seen today just reconfirms how disconnected DM's and above are. The goals they were expecting everyone to hit was asinine. I live in the real world. No one cares about apple launch anymore. People are hurting cash flow wise. It... — read more
Losing trust is easy, but regaining it is not
I believe that those at the top do not understand the importance of customer trust and how difficult it is to regain once lost. Terrible mismanagement.
15 days left and verizon stock is at $41 ouch!
Q3 is about to end very soon and verizon stock does not look really good..... Indirect stores coming very soon!!!
Corporate Layoffs?
Any information on the next round of Corporate Layoffs?
Interesting
In Hans bio it says that he wanted to become a professional handball player… Here in the U.S it’s known as pocket pool.
Verizon needs Leadership
VZ lacks vision. If we had a vision maybe we could execute it. This is a total failure of the leadership team.
The ways in which they try to make you quit
Maybe my experience is different than yours, but I really don't have the feeling that the manager is trying to encourage people to leave. Moreover, I would say that he is trying in every way to stop attrition. Just out of curiosity, in what ways... — read more
Verizon home
So anybody else getting a-s ridden by the powers that be to sell Verizon Home. The ONLY way to sell this is to slam it, I ( or anybody in my store for that matter ) has ever had 1 customer see any value in this, it's a horrible product, not to... — read more
Why did H@ns buy TracFone?

The Wizards of Ver Oz n need to come out from behind the curtain and get back to work. Even their handlers from blackrock have ordered their employees back to the office. The only thing that needs Viewed Together is how low the stock has dropped. I... — read more
Verizon stock vs t mobile
It's all over the news. New leader in wireless. Tmobile stock is greatly outperforming. Hans needs out. Hes too woke. Our 401k is disappearing!!
Class Action Lawsuit?
Verizon Wireless Delayed 401k payments during off cycle paychecks. This mostly happened during off cycle commission checks. It’s a small amount to the person getting it but adds up to a lot when combined with everyone’s payout. The scheme falls... — read more
Dividend Guy Here
So saw a post back asking so decided to add a new thread: Still surprised no one else noticed during off cycle pay (commission checks) that 401k deposits were delayed until the next payout. At least when people were getting commissions. Since it... — read more
At 15 years, being laid off would be great
With decent severance, I wouldn't complain one bit if I was laid off. I don't know why so many people are upset or worried. At this point, any other company is better than Verizon. If you're laid off, you get paid to look for a better job. How is... — read more
What’s happening in care?
I have been with Vzw a little less than a year working care. Recently within the past month and a half, they have trained myself and other care reps in TYS and now Pact. ‘No worries this is only to backfill calls the main department can’t handle... — read more
Union? Don't be a fool!
as much as I don't like VZ, Union is not the answer. The answer is to find another job! Union to pay dues and for what? Verizon tomorrow can close your store and the Union won't do cr-p, or do you think they will stop that? Leave verizon with... — read more
Where is Dividend Dude?
We need him to tell us how great our stock is to change our morale!
They Don’t Care!
They do not CARE! We are all just a number to these folks. The main reason why they do not, I repeat, do not want us to unionize is because they can’t impose their nonsense on us! The union is 100% needed. That is why they dislike it. Save your... — read more
Verizon customers are more miserable than T-Mobile's (or even AT&T)
Article on Zdnet: Zdnet.com/home-and-office/networking/verizon-customers-are-more-miserable-than-t-mobiles-or-even-at-ts/ I'm sure you will recognize some of the points made in the article. Do you think the C Suite reads these?
Hans thanks for making my 401K lower!!!!!!
From day one we knew Hans, and his broken English, came to verizon this was going to be a company going to the trash. He is more worried about his skinny jeans than how the company gets liquidated. The stock price is $43 wow never before Verizon... — read more

VZ Stock $43 vs Tmobile Stock $143
our stock sucks!!! Hans needs to get out now, he is destroying Verizon and will burn it to the ground just like did with Ericcson.
TMobile Star Link
So do we think this will be the final nail in the Verizon coffin??? Do we think Verizon was offered same deal and rejected it ( just like the original iPhone )??
Verizon Board of Directors Missing In Action
The board of directors is just as incompetent as Vestberg at this point. They sit by and do NOTHING. There are financial advisor opinions everywhere in the news about how TMobile has knocked Verizon right out of the ballpark as the stock value... — read more

Is taking an SM job worth it at this point ?
I know the SM role is not as respected as it once was several years ago. Would more money be the only reason to take it and is it worth it ? Looking at it from a reps perspective the job has turned out to be a glorified greeter position. There are... — read more
Negative uptick in customer surveys

So Hans is visiting Miami today, my thoughts!
Hopefully, He goes to the #1 fraud store in south florida, Hialeah. Yes, the store that has done the most 5G home via FRAUD! Perhaps he should ask the #1 rep selling 5G home, how is he doing it? Oh wait that rep is no longer with the company he... — read more

Home internet
Anybody else having these things pouring back into the stores to be returned?? At first they sounded pretty good, but the more we sell the more come back, customers saying the went from around 300mbs to 15 or 20 mbs. We were told 5 g was going to be... — read more

Telesales needs to unionize. It’s time

The issues are just piling up
I absolutely understand the complaints from our customers. It's strange that there aren't more of them. What is really problematic is that the issues are just piling up. I guess there is no will to solve at least some of these issues?
