Is anyone taking the Lumerit classes

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.

What is the point of the pulse surveys?

The people that answer these surveys lie because we're being monitored, Or don't answer like me. So if it's b—s— answers that they know they're getting then why even send them out. Someone needs a job to do nothing.

Second hand info from the Verizon side blog
