The fact that there is a touchless number for months now and that managers get on beat up calls because of it is absolutely absurd. This number does nothing for us. The fact that I get b–ched at because I didn't do something touchless and then my... — read more

Winter weather in the South
I live in the South, where we are experiencing winter weather that we don’t regularly have. Roads are iced over because my state doesn’t have the resources to combat it. Many employees can’t get to work, and many don’t have electricity. We were told... — read more

Does anyone have any solid info 24/32 work week changes ?
Several months back Verizon offered reps the opportunity to accept a 24 or 32 hour work week schedule. Most balked at making this change for obvious reasons and decided to stay grandfathered in at 40 hours. If I remember correctly they made it seem... — read more
System issues
Verizon has done a great job of getting rid of people that know how to solve problems and get sh– done. They are replaced by people that know absolutely nothing and just mindlessly look for answers. Here at Verizon we don’t fix problems. We like to... — read more

When
When will you id–ts realize that no amount of government-subsidized incentives will make Verizon do the right thing? They literally do not care about their frontline employees. Credo is sh–. They want us all gone. It’s not your “family,” it’s... — read more
