Does anyone know if there is a program for those of us laid off that have a phone plan with VZW? I have quite a way to go before paying off the phone and my bill will go up a lot without the discount :(

Just wondering if anyone has gotten their bonus or raise info yet and if so how does it compare to last years.

Lots of rumors flying around BGCO call center in Hilliard today about a closure happening to a department in the building. Uncertain of any truth to it.

The payout date is 3/20/20. Full-time employees that were originally issued 50 RSUs will receive a payout of $1,621.51 (27.28 RSUs X $59.44). As with the 1/31/19 vesting, this payout is also subject to applicable withholding.

So i have a screen shot from this website on March 19, 2019. The title of the comment was “all stores 1GM 1SM 4/1 CONFIRMED” now I know a lot of people are freaking out about these supposed cuts. But literally a year ago we were saying the same... — read more 

Going to happen March 1st it has been confirmed by several DM and Directors. Get out now no severance just layoffs going to hit also stores with hours 11-7 will be closed Sunday starting 3/15. That has been confirmed by retail ops rep in WI

I have to laugh! No more leaderboard simply means you’ll be coached out of your store in due time. Upper-leadership is completely clueless. SMs and GMs don’t care anymore. Sink this ship already.

Do yourself, your family, and everyone a favor and just leave. I did and never looked back. Trust me the grass is greener out there. Verizon s—s. Have some dignity...hey mr customer please buy this phone, this tablet, this hum, 175 in accessories... — read more 

Can anyone help? I don’t know where else to go. I couldn’t find a VZ retiree website. I took the VSP end of 2018 then signed up for retirement. My VSP COBRA benefits end 2/29/20 and I have made numerous calls in the past month to VZ Benefits... — read more

I changed jobs internally the last year and my small niche group was hot potatoed from Wireline to Biz Group to Customer Care in the last year or so. My job function has no relation to Customer Care in the traditional sense. What's the deal with... — read more

Credit card made exclusively for Verizon.. this should be good. At least you might get an autopay discount if you use it.

Is everyone having this or just certain markets? Will upcoming changes be addressed or just a kool aid drinking party to get everyone excited about the new year of making less money?

Stores will only have a GM, 1SM and a Lead specialist. Layoffs are coming for retail

Anyone hear about why we are having priority one meetings??? Layoffs?

Somethings coming up soon, but what?

We’re supposed to be happy...? For what? $833 spread out over 3 years, contingent on stock price and write-ups. FOH. That $833 will be swiped from our pockets in the form of dwindling commission payouts over the next year. It’d be nice if they... — read more

Anyone hear about not backfilling GM or SM positions?

Store closure announced today in Marina Del Rey.

The company really needs to know about the shady company they pay to handle our disability claims. Sedgwick is a terrible company and only cause way more stress. (Yes, I know it benefits Verizon) but we need to speak up and voice it! I mean why... — read more 

They want us to quit

Did anyone else that was laid off this year receive a bill from Verizon Benefits Center? I received one for $1500 on Dec 15th due Jan 1st....Merry Christmas...been out for months and Verizon is still hammering me..

Can’t believe they haven’t released the 2020 vacation bid results yet. People that requested any time off in Jan are getting stressed not knowing and needing to make travel arrangements.

Go make your money today

Is anyone doing the Lumerit classes and what are your thoughts on it? Verizon is only letting us choose Lumerit and starting next year, another school will be added. I wanted to start but it doesn’t sound like I’m going to like it.

There is all this talk about commission going away, jobs being lost, and call centers going away. So any news on anything really happening though?

Yes, it is going down... Tech Support (tier 2) is being moved overseas. A lot reps always said it wouldn't happen, but in 2020... Get ready!

Any thoughts on the new performance agreement for 7 day repeat and rev gen?

More and more talks of unionizing in Central PA. Quotas are ridiculously high and management doesn't go to bat for reps anymore. If they don't have our backs anymore screw em

What are your insights for employees future? What do you think their motive was for giving and extra week/two weeks vacation? Do you think they are going to lay off more managers starting next year?
