I asked our newest hire why she joined despite so much bad press surrounding Verizon and cuts. She said the recruiter was really persuasive and she needed a job fast. Not even a month in, she's already updating her LinkedIn. I'd like to laugh, but... — read more 

They clearly don’t know how to incentivize people. We demand top performers, pay the mediocre salaries, and turn them into the laziest versions of themselves. If the compensation team had competent people, this place would have been Amazon. Instead... — read more 

The laziest bro and the highest performer make the same and have the same career progression. This is a radical thought, Incentivize people to not su-k

I heard there was a BT team that got the old VPs/SVPs of base management and CS fired by pointing out how terrible their decisions were. How does one join this team?

So glad i sold ton of shares when it hit $50 for a few minutes !

An email was sent out last night that went to a lot of B2B Managers are to target reps who “lean” on them to much. This is a grossly obvious tactic to weed out people who ask for help a lot. We also find it odd that the manager that sent it out is... — read more 

Are you staying @VZ because you believe in the company or because you don't have another option?

I’ve seen high performers get RIFed…if they’ve been on their ADs sh-t list. Does that imply AD had a say in the job loss? Serious feedback please no trolling

Anyone heard about IT rebadging? It seems it is coming soon.

With losing the employee discount it's not worth staying with verizon I need cheap and works most the time. If you found any deals share I thing everyone would appreciate

What if Verizon rewarded performance instead of seniority? A non-union workplace could allow merit-based raises, faster promotions, and stronger one-on-one relationships between employees and management. High performers should have the opportunity to... — read more 

I’m hearing the whispers of an EISP around August 10!!Sounds like an across the board offer.Nothing special just the regular EISP.But sounds like no restrictions

Potentially cutting the lease early and relocating because salaries have inflated there and everyone’s demoralized, etc. Is this true? How would moving the whole operation again help with morale?

Just seem busy whenever a manager calls. Otherwise put your feet up and watch YouTube and relax. The work isn’t that hard here. It’s still good, just don’t be visible and they’ll forget about you

They can't keep cutting forever, eventually there won't be anyone left to cut. But even if it does stop, is there any reason to stay? Whoever's left will just be expected to do the all the work of everyone who was cut, for the same pay. I don't see a... — read more

Tune in later this week for a big beat!!!

You can call them to let them know you don't want to continue Cobra. Or you can just ignore the bills if you don't feel like wasting half an hour on the phone.

Two OpenAI artificial intelligence models autonomously went rogue, broke out of their secure testing environment, and hacked into the systems of rival platform Hugging Face in an unprecedented cybersecurity incident. What do think of that Dan ?

Great news to share! Finance is hiring, not firing. We’re investing in what matters most - people! https://mycareer.verizon.com/jobs/r-1097514/fpa-sr-mgr/

Job title downgrades coming for VPs of all levels and Directors of all levels. The company needs to save money and this is the logical way.

Verizon’s notice includes the potential layoffs of 282 employees by Oct. 16. Posted on NJ..com yesterday.

Just my opinion, but after the last organizational shake-up, I wouldn’t be surprised if history repeats itself. One question I keep coming back to: A.C. championed the “ways of working” in the previous CXO organization. Has anyone objectively looked... — read more 

Matt Carr had an all hands yesterday. He said we need to move on from the laid off employees, was laughing the entire time and came off as an arrogant fat man. Not to mention, was complimenting women for looking good, super weird. There was a tornado... — read more

What is the purpose of the 3rd office day? He-l, hardly anybody does it and lots of other teams barely come in for the required 2 days & are still employed. They come in for a few hours, swipe badge and are out.

You should consider the Finance Team in Basking Ridge as another area for future headcount reductions. There are too many employees with titles that make no sense. A few managers and lots of analysts are only needed to get the work done.

I think some have asked and didn't get answers but I just heard on an all hands call today that some at Frontier as well as some from Ireland were included the last round of cuts. I didn't work with them personally but a lot of people on the call did... — read more

Has anyone ever seen a demotion? My boss was demoted from AVP to Sr Director, I'm worried about my job.

Does anyone have legit intel on what locations will be included on the next round of office closures?

Employees that were laid off in Nov 2025 were able to keep their employee discount on phone plans for 1 year. Why isn’t the same being offered to employees let go on 07/16?

Employee repeatedly took leave on Mondays and Fridays, coming to office only 3 days a week. Issue was reported to HR instead of manager. HR involvement was good.

Anyone rif'd in the past collect unemployment? Do you file on your last day worked and get it after the 1 week waiting period or do you have to apply after your severance weeks are over? People with personal experience please reply.

We all know the 5B target... so how much has actually been cut from the balance sheet?
