Quit and find another job. Lots of job openings out there and the Fox news myth about unemployment is crumbling. It's an employee job market take advantage.

Just want to thank Verizon for declaring dividends and any stock owned by end of business on 07/07/2021 receives a payment of .6275 per share. The EX date is 07/08/2021 that just tells the well informed you do not receive the dividend if you buy... — read more 

Those at the top never admit their mistakes and take no responsibility for their actions. That is why it is more important for them to maintain the apparent illusion that everything is under control and satisfy their ego, instead of leading tangible... — read more 

What’s funny is we have been told additional help is coming within a month or so. So yeah by the time the newbies arrive a few reps will be leaving so its back to square one. It will be even worse because replacing a seasoned rep with a newbie is a... — read more 

Verizon please do us all another brilliant favor and let the customers call back into the retail stores. Everything is back to normal and we have plenty of staff to field all the calls. * You know it’s coming right ? They don’t care about us. — read more 

Got let go after 16+ years here in Southern California back in February. Took my severance and I was in fear because Verizon was all that I knew. Got hired by Att’s IHX position and I couldn’t be happier months in. Company car 4 weeks vacation 8-5... — read more 

Good news everyone. There will now be only 1-2 reps on the floor at a majority of stores now. At any given time you could walk into a Verizon and more than likely one person will be there to help you. GL

How do people learn their jobs? There is barely any training, zero mentoring, and getting somebody to talk to you, including your own manager, takes an Act of Congress. What kind of leadership doesn't even try to make sure the new people know what... — read more 

Sure there are stores where certain questions ranked lower then the company average but overall the survey scores were good. Why ? If everything is soooooo miserable working in the stores these days why weren’t the scores a lot lower to reflect that... — read more

Anyone else skeptical about these title changes. GM to Manager and SM to Assistant manager. I’ve tried the title out during an escalation and the first thing the customer said was, “can I speak to THE MANAGER, not the assist.” We made it work but the... — read more 

Over worked, under staffed - hold on help is coming- have you seen the caliber of help, it’s laughable. And let’s not forget favoritism high quotas for slow locations and low for the kiss as--s with major traffic. My gm is already 2 feet out the door... — read more 

I don’t know, but I’m pretty sure that’s not among their priorities. It is as if they don't recognize the value of reinvesting, and without that there is no continued growth and success. Maybe it’s because they don’t have a strategy and vision at... — read more 

Clueless Verizon and surveys. I got a survey about 90 days after quitting the company (best thing I have ever done). The questions and mostly the answers listed to select from were comical. System issues listed. If you would like you can... — read more 

I know in my district you can hang it up trying to get promoted unless you are a straight up “yes” man. East Texas has some of the worst leadership I have ever seen. They have moved people they didn’t like so that they wouldn’t have to lose some... — read more 

I think they made the systems worse so you take more time with the customer. I often think about this. Are they actually doing all this intentionally? It is not possible that they do not realize the problems we have with the system. I... — read more 

I left my old job because of the higher pay here. A few years down the line and I'd take my old job back in a second if there was a possibility. I didn't realize until now how much a positive work environment and normal supervisor mean in keeping you... — read more 

If anyone were to look and see that on June 2nd it was declared that for every share of Verizon would be paid .6275 per share owned. The EX date is is 07/08/2021. What does this mean well it means the stock is traded after the dividend. To get... — read more

Nothing works! Can’t do a sim swap, can’t add new lines, can’t do feature changes, can’t get the scheduling right. Can we all just take a strike? This is a complete set up. How are we supposed to get good RIS scores with a system that makes us... — read more

Did you all hear about all the people laid off in the BGCO? I don’t know all the details, but much of SLC was let go. I believe it was all of Fulfillment, Phone Support and GCO. It doesn’t appear that GEA’s or Tech was impacted, which is odd... — read more

How many sales were lost this weekend due to POS issues? I’m sure we are all asking VIKI for help and putting in the all magical “Quick Ticket”.

Will we have to return the furniture when we quit? If I can scam a new desk and chair before I leave Verizon, that’d be pretty sweet. Thanks Verizon, about time you did something nice for us after bending us over year over year.

They keep saying Afni is having system issues with Verizon. It has been over 2 weeks now. Wondering if it is a contract dispute or something different??

We need to stop being pushed around. How do we start a class action suit for this? We lose money, get worse schedules, etc.

Been with the company 10+ years & I’ve had enough. My retail store was impacted earlier this year & my option was take a nice severance or apply for telesales… let’s just say, I regret not taking the severance. My mental health is not ok :( Working... — read more

Verizon just laid off so many coordinators for online support and offline support!!! Unbelievable

I know for those that received the 30 day notices today probably aren't allowed to post anything Some have received the layoff notices effective 30 days from todays date. Not sure the scope but could be a discussion worthy topic today
