Micromanaging

Down in the south here. Sick and tired from the micromanaging. Can’t take a day off with out 30 days notice. Treated like kids. Have to lay our day out minute by minute to our boss. He has more spreadsheets with numbers on them. Rather then help you... — read more

Year End

We’re being asked to complete year end accomplishments, months before. Care Operations. Sounds like they’re trying to find people to axe by EOY or very early Q1.

Let's Talk Layoffs 2023 to 2024

So we all know what's about to go down in a week or so... the big questions are about to be answered "how many and from where". What gets me thinking is in the latest VGS all hands meeting where VPs said 3 important things: When our customers... — read more

Pulse Survey

It looks like it’s that time again. Is it better to not even take the pulse or to give all ones? I don’t believe that it is anonymous and I want to make sure I get on their bad side so I can finally be laid off. Which option would pi-s off our... — read more

Our Internal Website

The Internal Website - What a non-stop phony vomit virtue signal garbage heap. It all covers the fact that they have to consistently cut costs to increase any potential profits. Unless they come up with some type of revolutionary technology, they... — read more

Hiring freeze

When is the usual retail hiring freeze take place before the holidays? We are down two reps and nobody is in a hurry to fill the spots. Not trying to work triple time over the holiday season.

Layoffs coming!! Off the books by year end.

Wishes will be granted to those who have been waiting! Internally confirmed. Budget in almost all departments are over spent for 2023 with 2024 being already set tight. Layoffs in many departments including b2b, customer care, sales, management... — read more 

Verizon has been removed

Very interesting that the Verizon message board has been removed from The Layoff. Someone must be posting something that they do not like. Sorry that this is posted to the wireless board but the Verizon board has been removed. Hmmmmm

Do you apologize for reps with bad English

So ever since our lovely Partner Success Organization has launched the amount of customers mad about speaking with outsourced reps have gone up. For reference I work for the team that store reps call to avoid customer care and the one that customer... — read more

AI for voice change.

Went to a training meeting this last week and we were told that Verizon is going to be implementing a technology that will get rid of the accent for these outsource reps and make them sound American.

Elevated - But not management.

Seems everyone is elevated but the managers. They would rather micromanage the sale than do the proper elevate behaviors and check people in at the door like they should. Hey verizon maybe get your managers to trust the reps to do their jobs. Then if... — read more

T-Mobile

Has anyone been taking a look over over on the T-Mobile page? Looks like they're getting hit hard over there. Not good regards to the industry, especially since they have a corporate office not far from us.

Perk debacle

Marketing mistake. People compare the cost of their Verizon bill to the cost of the competition. We are not the cheapest and bottom line we are now pushing our customers to add $10 perks and further increase the cost of their monthly bill. Oh... — read more

Huntsville Call Center

I miss my old Call Center. I miss the people. I miss the food. I remember how proud I was when I was offered HBA in 2018. Now look at how things are. I called in for service on my Mom's account because I wanted to see how the third party centers... — read more 

Call volume not decreasing

Not such a good sign, considering what’s about to go down next Friday. Call volumes are actually higher and not decreasing

Esim 2.0

Keep slamming phone adds just like esim and you’ll buy your ticket to being written up. Gotta love the great ideas from our great leaders to add lines instead of upgrading customers phones…it’s all about the mighty phone add.

Will I make it to next week

Will I make it to next week or will they be riding me and look at every minor little thing, look for a way to terminate me for “poor performance” and save themselves some cash. I just hope they lay off and let it be smooth these last two weeks

49 an hour is looking pretty good

If UPS can do it with gas costs and all other costs incorporated, I believe it's time for verizon to do the same for their reps. Otherwise UPS is looking pretty good.

HCLTech

For those of you thinking of moving to HCLTech, don't do it. I've been with the company for a long time. I work in IT Engineering. I maintained a good relationship with many who were forced into Infosys. The environment is a passive aggressive... — read more
