The current comp structure at risk is based on how many hours someone works per month. There is a 24/32 and 40 hour structure. When it comes to working overtime the “ at risk “ is adjusted for the 24 and 32 hour positions but not the 40 hour ones... — read more 

Just out of curiosity is there anyone who believes that their store will hit a 2.0? I mean that is the only way you can hit the heavily taxed bonus of $600. The real money is in the overtime but working more then 40 hours in a busy holiday month is... — read more 

Verizon has to allow 4 hours paid time off for my shot. I scheduled it for 8am. Hopefully I don't have any reactions. I wouldn't want to have to go home early.

While it was fun, we were less stressed, engaged, more productive.. Now it's not fun anymore and working here is very tiring. I'm afraid nothing can fix company culture here anymore because this company has lost its direction. I also think it stopped... — read more 

I would rather observe que times at an all time high and witness customers becoming disgruntled. The greatest feeling is when the first shift all leave and we are down to 2 reps with 10 still in the que. The look on customers faces is priceless. I... — read more 

Black Friday will be here next week. I just wanted to remind everyone that we have staged a mass callout. Stick to the script.

Everyone is talking about leadership that has no vision... that has lost its direction.... that is making bad moves... I completely agree. However, when I ask my colleagues what changes they would like to see here, the answer is mostly “fire bad... — read more 

So we had a call earlier this week and some new leadership was present. One of the guys moved in from a position outside of retail. He was pretty energetic ...the super kool aide drinking type. Anyway part of his conversation was comparing direct and... — read more 

Prominent retail leadership have all jumped ship in the last 3 months. There is nothing but a shell of what once was. It’s as if they all know what’s about to happen and wanted no parts of it. Such a shame… BEWARE OF Q1!!!

Hans is ready to pay us in AwardperQs instead of US Dollars. You can redeem your Hans Dollars for gamer swag and barbecue grills! Make sure you call your lender and ask if they accept Hans Dollars for your mortgage payment.

Leadership, of course, is never to blame for the company sinking, the circumstances are to blame, everyone below them is to blame. Marketing is never to blame, they are supposedly doing everything in their power and someone else is to blame again. In... — read more 

Found on the regular Verizon board. CWA, IBEW, and Verizon have come to an agreement on the mandate. No mandate for the majority of employees. Here’s the breakdown. Home garaging will be reinstated January 1, 2022. There will be no overtime given... — read more 

For some reason I think this Black Friday is going to be a lot different than it used to be? One of the reasons is, as someone has already said, that we don't have much to sell.

When the business sales director resigns... the signs of the great resignation are here. Not to mention more and more b2b sales reps are leaving Verizon to do the same job elsewhere, 8 within the past 2 months.... for those sticking around... Verizon... — read more 

I've been working more and more unpaid overtime so at this point 40 hours of hard work is a light week for me. And worst of all is that in my case it is somehow implied that it is all unpaid. It is not clear to me how Verizon started to expect me to... — read more 

Is anyone else scheduled from 8am to 8pm on Black Friday 🥴 That would put me at 40 hours exactly around 1pm but I’m also scheduled a 9 hour shift on Saturday. I’m not complaining or anything, just genuinely curious if Verizon is legally allowed to... — read more 

Honestly, I'm getting a little tired of the advice to deal with work overload by doing the bare minimum. Everyone here says that but no one wants to admit that it simply doesn’t work. In my case, anyways, it doesn't work. I can’t work bare minimum... — read more 

Has anyone heard anything on restructuring for vcg in wireless in November?

Do you think Verizon will change the Feb. 1st Date to an earlier date for the vaccine mandate for retail employees due to the Biden announcement last week?

So the people that take calls are safe from the layoffs? Confused. I am a new hire and just got hired today, getting equipment tomorrow. Are we safe as WFH employees? By the looks of it just looks like stores employees are getting the axe.

I'm in Network and I came over with the Alltel merge in 2009. And for several years I drank the Kool-Aid, but to to honest it was a different company then because everybody seemed happy and proud of where they worked. Now though.. not so much. The... — read more 

Call out and say emergency short notice day. Management can't ask why. We have no devices customers want. They extend our hours for the mystery traffic for our no devices. For everyone that wants to take a stand against this vaccine mandate. Quota... — read more 

Yeah I thought so, choosing not to give us that option. "Lets Go Verlieson"

I’ve only been here a little over half a year, but enough to see what kind of company it is. A colleague told me that not being here for a long time means nothing and that I can also be RIFed. Is it possible that even employees who are relatively new... — read more 

Looking like WPH and Union employees might be required soon as well.

Just today, my boss said.. False churn the he-l out of it so we can hit our numbers..They put it in our hands, so that we can get fired for their inability to stand up for actually not having the tools to do our job. Tell me how this is going to play... — read more 

With everything back ordered until Christmas at this point, what is Verizon going to do for us this month? Managers still micro managing numbers and sales but are clueless to what is going on in the real world. Even having a quota is a joke. Welcome... — read more 

The future plan is to migrate all of the Baseband Units to the cloud. Once this is complete Cell site maintenance is going to be contracted out. That is why Verizon is still hiring System Performance Engineers, laying off Field Technicians and not... — read more 

Never before have I seen so many people in the Engineering staff job hunting. I have even overheard conversations about people putting their homes and cars up for sale so they can relocate for employment. Verizon is winning the race to the bottom!

Refer a friend get a bonus. Hey friend welcome to H-ell . I don't think I know anyone I hate that much

I somehow overcame the fact that I was told in a very ugly way that I am no longer needed here but the timing that this company chooses for cuts is more than reckless. Do they always have to choose the worst possible timing, when people are preparing... — read more 

I would like to hear your thoughts/comments on deciding between leaving VZ or waiting out the unpaid leave to see what happens. I am not interested in a debate about the vax, good or bad just your thoughts on whether to take my lump sum and leave or... — read more 

Could it be that you have a lot of disgruntled employees ? That is exactly what it is. This is what happens when you choose to ignore the low morale and treat it like BAU when it’s everything but. Sources are saying upcoming shrink in 4th quarter... — read more 

It really shows how bad things are with the company and how little they care about employees to not do anything for the week that is “about us”. All we got was daily useless emails. Did anyone actually get anything?

We were asked at the last min. To join a sync up call. It was of course a call about the company wide RIFs. Director looked stressed to the max like he had a stroke and the managers performance on the call could only be described as embarrassing... — read more 

What is your age and how long were you with the company? Share area you worked if you want.

Were all of you keyboard warrior bullies mean before you worked at Verizon? Or did the job steal your soul and make you think you have the AUDACITY? Seems like this forum could be a little more supportive…

I'm pretty new here. I am satisfied with pay, considering my previous experience, I can't even ask for anything higher. It would not be realistic. However, I am interested in what someone mentioned that there has been a decrease in pay here from year... — read more
