The constant tweaking of an already severely low commission plan just ticks reps off. The morale is at an all time low ....lower then the previous all time low. Using RIS as a multiplier is the biggest joke ever and it’s not to be trusted. Case in... — read more 

Listen, we all know Hans is all about cutting cost. He did it with Sony Ericson and he's doing it with Verizon. Verizon has made so much money having people work from home but its never enough. No one is safe. Appreciate what you have though. Don't... — read more

Anyone had any luck trying to get their severance package after accepting the WFH gig? I feel like I was lied to. This is not what I signed up for. I’d rather just take the severance at this point.
