You'd be a complete fool to work harder to fill in the gaps.
Review on Glassdoor!!!
Lets post our reviews on Verizon in Glassdoor to warn folks joining in the future!
To my layoff friends, is anyone else semi-relieved?
No more ambiguity. I don't have to sit in this he-l hole of a position, worrying about the ax man chasing me anymore. I'm at peace. A chicken with its head cut off. No but in all honesty, I moved out to Texas from Chicago for the position I worked... — read more
Any more layoffs happened today?
Any laid offs happened on Friday?
Going to office until last day?
Is anyone actually planning on going to the office 3x a week until their official last day?
LTI / Stock Together Gone
Total Rewards with LTI gone. No longer available. Removed day before RIF. There goes Dan removing benefits of working here.
GN&T employee
Managers, directors , vp , etc…. Are you guys even thinking this through ? How is this even remotely healthy working environment for the ones left behind to cover so many sites. I got peers with 200 + sites. We were so thin with the VSP and now this... — read more
Why Shankar is still here
Adding another Shankar thread .. Why is he still around? Have we not learned any lesson ?
Building engineers
If any higher ups that are still employed and have access to Dan, just a thought. I was curious, I heard 50% of building engineers were let go in new England. 1 person to cover a entire state. I hope you realize we are heading into winter. A lot of... — read more
India rifs to be announced on 12/04
Indian employees will be informed about rifs on 12/04 and will get one month of severance per year worked.
Survivor guilt
I made it through this awful week, and I am so sorry for those who were impacted. They did not deserve this. The process seemed utterly random. I would gladly switch positions with any of those laid off since I was planning to retire in the next year... — read more
LinkedIn Posts
Seeing all the LinkedIn updates from everyone impacted is breaking my heart. I hope Vz leaders who made all this possible are also seeing these. And why right before Thanksgiving? Truely sickening. Lost faith in this company and the people up... — read more
Did the standards team get impacted?
Did Verizona’s standards team get impacted?
This was exhausting
The anticipation was the worst part. I made it through, but I don’t feel relieved, just completely drained. I really feel for everyone who lost their jobs and wish them the best of luck. I hope better times come for all of us.
Market Consolidation
Word on the street is Georgia Alabama will be consolidated with the Florida market with Florida leadership running the show. Is there any truth to this? I wonder who got eliminated in Alpharetta or who will get eliminated in the next layoff?
Will we still get a bonus /sti this year?
Or will Dan cut back on that too
Weekend is here
Time to go home now for the relaxing weekend. See you all on Monday. Taking a few days off before Thanksgiving. A week for Christmas too to spend some time in Florida. Need some aqua therapy.
Goodbye - layoff.com
I survived… but not sure how Vz can ever feel like “family” after so many face so much uncertainty right before the holidays. Unfortunately, we will meet again layoff.com, when the next round comes. This site had many trolls but it also provided... — read more

VTeamers do not get too comfortable if your job is saved this time around… round 2 is coming sooner than you can think of, End of March to early April i am hearing from a realiable source details are being ironed out. The frontier merger should be... — read more
Does severance has to be paid all at once?
Is there any way to get it in multiple payments? I'm asking because of the taxes.
Severance and time in payroll
For NJ workers 90 days under payroll, u like other states that are only 30 days. With the possibility to still apply internally within the company or search for another source of income while under payroll. Though tempting to look within, it is a... — read more
Porting Number Out
Anyone know what’s the process to port your work number out?
Short term disability
I got the call yesterday that my position was eliminated, but I haven't received and severance papers yet. My peers have received there papers. Is it because I'm out on STD?
R.I.F. Severance , Etc. payout timelines
Off the books Dec192025. Was curios if anyone who know, could share the payout timelines of severance, sti, and stock options ?
Rumor mill: Another 5k in 3/26
Anyone else hearing from leadership that another 5K round is planned in March post the reorganization across new leaders. Supposedly, this new transformation leadership is being asked to find efficiencies through downsizing targets.
BeMobile Indirect
Anybody on here ever work for this indirect company called BeMobile? They are turning some into this indirect in my area and I never heard of them. What do yall think about them? Good or bad? Same as corporate verizon?
In 5 years time…
What do you think Verizon will look like? Will it even exist?
Keep this in my when job searching
30% of job postings are fake, per Forbes. https://x.com/BarefootStudent/status/1991247655469740122
New Job Outlook
Is ATT or T-Mobile hiring ?
Is Shankar out or that a fake news as well?
If all these people are still there then why Dan just created this drama ? Culture won’t change if these heavyweight people are going to sit on the top.
How many hit in Illinois
Please post if you live in IL and were given less than 60 days. We can get more if we have the numbers. Don’t troll, honestly im only trying to help cause no one else does.

Verizon Never A Truly Great Company
@"the men and women who built this into a once great company." Seriously, Verizon was NEVER a "Great" company. They never invented any groundbreaking technologies nor created any new markets nor set any significant business or technology... — read more
Do you think Dan reads this board?
I’m wondering… How does he feel about his nickname? Dan the Hatchet Man? I wouldn’t be surprised if he actually likes it. How does it feel to cause such intense pain and misery to 13,000 individuals, multipled by 3 or 5 when you take into account... — read more
