PIP for Leadership!

Long Overdue. If the Board tolerates this performance, they should be held accountable by shareholders also.

New hires do not tolerate stress and pressure at all

Yep, we are lucky if 10 percent of our new hires make it to 6 months, most are gone by the 3rd month, mostball say the money is not worth the stress from customers and the stupid metrics. I generally agree with a person who wrote this (post ID... — read more 

Skinny Pants = Skinny Profits?

Correlation or causation. You decide. Question #2. If you could draft one leader from the past to right the ship, who would you select? Lowell, Stratton, Killian, Strigl, Mead, Ivan? Others?

Outrageous metrics

I would like to see my boss meet the same expectations he expects from us, considering that he thinks that these are not unrealistic expectations at all, but that we are not doing our best. I would like to see him try and wonder if he would manage... — read more

Stock price is garbage!!!

Our stock is now at the same price per share as it was 10 years ago!!! Thanks Hans. What great growth you've created. How many more successful companies do you need to sink before you give up on it all. Let someone else do the job. Enough is enough!!... — read more

Pulse urgency?

Manager just told us that if we’re 100% complete by Friday, we’re getting lunch on him/her. Last lunch as a team before 27th I guess.

A positive note for possible RIF'D employees

Last year, late October they gave me the canned speech. Well..... I know I can't change it or stop it, but they say you can apply for other positions within Verizon. Why would you?? The grass isn't any greener over there, plus the RIF will come to... — read more

I should have planned a little better

I'm glad when I read people saying that they can't wait for RIFs. This means that they are prepared. Obviously there is many more of those who did prepare than those who didn't - like me!? Unfortunately, I didn't start planning exit on time so my... — read more

Disconnected leadership

I have never worked in a company where the leadership is more disconnected from employees than here. You? It's as if they expect the employees to care more about the future of this company than they do, even though we are mostly inadequately... — read more

Boycott pulse!

Reminder that pulse isn’t anonymous, despite what you are told. If you want to send a message, don’t do it. Leaders hate hate.

Are the October 27 RIF Rumours Credible?

A buddy from a different group said his team had a meeting yesterday and their manager mentioned his team would not be affected by upcoming RIFs. My team was not given any such direction, gulp.

People no longer care about their job as much

That's my impression. The reason is that the management did everything to demoralize and demotivate employees who once loved their job and worked very hard. It is obvious that most people here are just trying to stay a little longer until they find... — read more 

Chose volunteers

If you're gonna lay people off it would make sense to ask for volunteers. Why not lay people off who want to to be laid-off rather than people that want to stay?

Giving bad reviews on pulse

Until now, I have always given good reviews on pulse survey because I thought that I could become jobless if I gave a bad review. How much do you think giving a bad review can jeopardize someone's job here?

Whether the rumors are true or not...

My personal opinion is that cuts are inevitable. Does anyone think otherwise? I am not saying with certainty that there will be cuts, nor do I want to raise panic, but I just think that they are inevitable because the company is in a bad situation... — read more

PULSE & RIFs - Confidential? I wouldn't do it

Interesting that the Pulse survey is launching on 10/17 and RIFs are rumored for 10/27. So it can either be that they want people to be afraid to be honest with feedback for fear of losing their job so the scores will be high. Or they want to see... — read more

Business Representatives Make Too Much

Business representatives make way too much. Front line workers are expected to do the work and close the business down in store, for a measly commission check; however the money gets funneled into the business reps pockets for the sales we made. I... — read more 

Tanking for Chute

Is there a way to get HV outta here? It'll probably require someones password because its a high risk transaction but he really needs to take his parachute and leave. High risk high reward.

VZ $36 Stock incoming.....

Looks like Verizon is not doing very well. This should be a wake-up call for everyone at the WOKE HQ to stop doing those stupid videos and get back to work. This is not good for 4Q and the numbers probably are going to be really bad bringing the... — read more 

R2B Reps no longer making money!!

We have reps not making a check for months just their hourly... Verizon the new Blockbuster coming soon! PS Switch to Visible or the new prepay service Hans skinny pants were just bragging about days ago.

What positions are being cut? R2b? B2B? Seems strange that they would cut the channel that actually has net gains
