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

FACT! Verizon is prepping to layoff SMB Specialists and we’ll as leaders in the same org. Leadership is pleading the 5th and staying hush hush about it lying to the front line when asked.

Leadership always wants feedback and says they want to know what's going on... then you tell them how bad 360 is and they just say meh. It would be great if 360 was the only thing that is bad. There’s a bunch of bad stuff here. And yes, they... — read more
