Any V-Teamers that work in S. Florida notice a drastic increase of pressure to hit unrealistic goals as of late? Seems as if we are all getting harrassed. Feel free to provide your insight

Got word this evening that they are giving ALOT of VZ stores over to retailers like TCC, Victra & Cellular Sales. If I have to jump ship to one of them, which is the best for a experienced sales rep?

The new Verizon Customer Service is not geared towards a positive customer experience. We have turned into Comcast with the worst customer service in the industry. We used to be a company that cared about customers, it is apparent that has changed to... — read more 

Yesterday it was announced Our VP would be retiring 4/1. This morning we’re told of more changes and some people impacted. Not sure how wide this goes

Hans and the board on up to speed March 20th. What do you think the announcement will be?

Huh ? https://twitter.com/MacroEdgeRes/status/1762607705519251857?t=OcsdkOVe6b5QMkw5HBGViA&s=19

Looks like we're down roughly 2.5% today. Anyone know why? Over the last 5 days we're down more than AT&T who just had a major outrage. What gives? The cynic in me says VZ is suppressing their own stock price so as not to have to pay out more for... — read more 

I was let go back in August as part of the lay off. Best thing that ever happened to me. From what I am reading nothing has improved. The discussion regarding the low raises is infuriating. Taking calls for Verizon is not easy. It takes a lot of... — read more 

Anyone know about any layoffs in Basking Ridge, New Jersey

I keep hearing rumors the goal is to get everyone back into centers. That it’s going to start with upper management then move to supervisors then reps. Anyone else?

I feel as if the employee experience has receded to new lows with the new form of micromanagement at stores. It's not enough to do the job and hit quota every month. They want to know everything you are doing irregardless of the situation. I feel as... — read more 

Anyone else feel like that was just a slap in the face pay raise? Everything else goes up except our pay, All the while our boy Hans is sitting in a new yacht.

Just a few days ago some centers in the Philippines got notified about more new hire classes being needed at 3x the frequency. That's right 3 new classes starting each week March to July. What does this mean for internal agents?, SAs, Management, ... — read more 

What are the chances of retail reps unionizing? I would to be honest. It's obvious these quotas and arbitrary metrics are being designed to create turnover. Why pay a severance for store closure when you can reduce headcount through attrition?

Should we expect other departments to be hit as well?

Cuts in the l&d department happening now.

If you are not returning to the office via the way of exception watch out. It is not a matter of "if" but WHEN you will be laid off. The corporate monster wants you under its thumb at all times. Enjoy your time at home while it lasts, dust of your... — read more 

Nice move in the stock price in spite of slightly lower profits. How do we replicate that for Q1?

Top stores not making commission, no surprise here …quotas too high so they don’t have to pay us, we all saw this coming. The company is not interested in keeping good employees or paying them! Look at the actions not the word salad they spew on us. — read more 

Anyone else's think that Hans' goal is to move all of customer service to outsourced? We have way more outsourced or partner centers than internal cs. It seems like the public doesn't care if their customer service is in the United States anymore... — read more 

Is a mess. Quotas close to 100 with no promotions. Leadership pounding calls after calls. Terrible car reimbursement policy. Trash network. No support in sales or with Bgco. Everything is outsourced and our customers keep getting incorrect info. On... — read more

How many punishment calls can we go on in a day? We are always treated like we have done something wrong, Thanks for making our jobs as miserable as it can be…I vote no confidence with this director.

Smb plans going up $5 get ready for all those precious Smb customers to come back and tell you what a fat liar you are just to sell a phone. Merry Christmas you did a good job!

Is there a d-mber idea and worse product than Netflix with commercials as a perk? SAD!

Oh it's ok. You get the holiday off but it counts as your day off. It's fine, we are always here for the customer...What a joke of a company. We value family, yet we don't value the time with them...We are money oriented, we'd be open on Christmas if... — read more 

What's up with the downvote brigade on every post? Is it Corporate? Shills? The new and incredibly terrible overseas customer service department? Feel the Dignity, Inclusiveness, and the constantly Virtual Signaling Intranet page.

Honestly, the whole byline notified with 'sensitivity and dignity' is an absolute joke! Try a VP on a group call letting everyone on the call know that they are being RIFd all at once and he was excited about the direction Verizon was headed. What... — read more 

Yall think retail sales reps in corporate locations are safe from layoffs?

Director did not know and was not able to share the names of the individuals laid off. He only knew the total number from his team. Said he would update us later. I guess local management did not have any input on the selection process.

Gather all your veterans together one day to celebrate and honor their service to our country and lay a bunch of them off the next day. When our director pulled us all together to make the RIF announcement he made sure to mention how the layoffs were... — read more 

It would seem that Verizon Wireless has decided to layoff off good quality workers and keep slackers and worthless workers instead. I worked for many years side by side with one of the people that got burned down Thursday. The worker was 1 of the... — read more
