December Quota....Really?
Not one store in our district came close to hitting Nov quota. Then they raise dec by 40%!?!?!?!. Not one person is motivated by this unrealistic quota during covid, when devices are now shipping in Jan. What's the point of trying when there is no... — read more

Just kidding. My store is dead as always.
My store just closed for the day (Black Friday)
Just got a call from my DM that my store and 1 other in my district will be closed and not to come in because they don't have enough staff to open the store. Too many people "sick". I have not been happy with Verizon as of late but I would never try... — read more
Customer complaints
So now every day I’m getting complaints that when a customer calls care they are talking with people in the Philippines. Did Verizon get rid of most of our customer care?
Commissions....
This is terrible. They gave about a 20% bump in hourly, but I'm getting an 80% decrease in commission. And we're supposed to be happy about it and not complain. I was one of the top performers in my territory. With my performance last month I would... — read more
Thinking about a B2B role?
I was thinking about applying for a role in B2B and was told that it is not the best channel to be in right now. Anyone have any experience to share? I was under the impression I could make better money?
Opinionated Facts
What is one word you would use to describe mid/senior leadership at Verizon??? Mine is simply “incapable”
VZW Work Culture is Toxic
This company doesn’t care about you. They will work you to death. They want you scared, on edge, back stabbing each other and scrambling like rats. They’ll keep cutting more and more, while giving you more to do, to see how much you’ll take. While at... — read more

Hold times and greed
Customers are holding longer than ever now. Us reps are holding for internal departments up to 40 minutes sometimes. What is going on here? Thought we had a bunch of 3rd party centers supporting us now. I hate the secrets. What ever happened to being... — read more

Stores about to close again?
My Dm is telling me to prepare for store closers for 4-6 weeks. The timing is supposed to set up right after Christmas. Why not before? Ohhhhh right profits over people.
District consolidation is right around the corner
The days of a DM having 3-5 stores will be a thing of the past. DM’s will soon have up to ten stores reporting to them. Obviously less DM’s will be needed so you know what this means??? This is a fact and mark it down. Confirmed !
Why did Verizon pull out of Target ?
Why would they pull out of such a busy store with numerous locations ? Yes retail is dead but Target is not.

On Eric Reed’s Instagram, it shows a new express store they opened in San Francisco Ca. It’s not going to be long before all the stores get turned in express or indirect. They only had three people working in the store too. So I wonder how many... — read more

Retail and Covid
What is the retail store looking like with cases surging?
I2B
The expectations for I2B are ridiculous. The channel is ran as a B2B organization which it doesn’t belong in. It belongs in the same group as consumer IAMs. I’m just happy to be located in a big city and have good businesses to deal with. — read more

Manager layoffs soon
2 managers per store and a floating manager to cover stores when managers go on vacation or calls out.
Why do people think this?
This site is not overlooked by great upper management looking to gain feedback and exact change. They. Do. Not. Care.
