If AT&T can do it, so can we? And at this time, we should all do it. Recession is on the rise and who they’ll come after is Solutions Specialists, NOT SMs, NOT GMs, NOT Area Managers, DEF NOT “USELESS” DOSs and the main corrupt one the VP. Once again... — read more

Well ladies and gentlemen it appears the annual Dog and Pony Show is making its rounds in a city near you very soon! It’s the same song and dance as the DM scrambles to run his fire drills to make sure he looks good. Get your “culture board” nice... — read more
Davos B-ms
“Elite” being over paid for a job that involves little physical effort but requires a great sense of self worth. Most of the time these people have skills equivalent to a drunk guy at a bar claiming to be a navy seal and unfortunately a majority of... — read more
TMobile Layoffs
You guys should head over to the Tmo board and read some of the threads over there. They had a massive layoff across frontline stores and indirect support on Friday, and things sound just as toxic there as it is in our stores. We have terrible... — read more
indirect account manager

Big Orange
I wonder if the last days of Sprint looked like this.
Fundamental Vision Failure
I used to roll my eyes when customers came into a store and said they couldn't get help over the phone. But the amount of problems not getting solved and the lack of communication difficulty is obvious. The stores have to clean up so many messes that... — read more

What is with all the metrics in retail?
It's like a Walgreen's receipt of metrics to hit. Most of them barely even pay commissions if at all. Then they send an email about integrity and ethics even stating that they know the goals are high and the pressure is over the top. The expectations... — read more
R2B cuts
I’m hearing R2B is going to be cut down in size soon. One or 2 reps per district is what I’m hearing.

Whats the average comission check in store ?
So I left 2 years ago when they announced team commission, wanted to know how much stores are averaging in commissions now ?
Will quotas go up?
Well, seeing as we're are short staffed and have been for 2 years, we are 9-7 mon - sat and we just added an hour on Sunday, so we're 11-6, so we still have 2 shifts and now an extra hour on Sunday, gotta love the thinking behind this!! Not to... — read more
Stock crash
Is this all part of the hansy scheme? Tank stocks so the payout in march is much lower than it would’ve been since it’s a triple payout?
Useless Assistant Managers (Retail Stores)
Why is Verizon not getting rid of or cutting down to just one assistant manager? They serve no real purpose. Who on here witness it on daily basis? They do not do anything but sit in the backroom and be on social media
Is everyone is excited about our new kicker?
I'm so excited and can't wait to work hard to make an extra $100 in my pay check. Who's with me
The State of Verizon
If you take a close look at Verizon right now, you will see a company that is on the same path as Ericsson. A company that doesn't give a darn about their employees needs and a company that just wants to get as much out of their employees as they... — read more
Customer Service 20 to 1
My Supervisor just said that teams are going to be at a 20 to 1 ratio starting in March. Also, that the base pay increase will be lower than the normal 2 to 3% for performing as well. Is this company just taking advantage of us by giving us less... — read more

Running list of slam style selling for those stores that stand out
Ahhhh yes.....we all see those top stores out there being shouted out on calls etc. How are they hitting those numbers ? Why cant every store hit those numbers ? Well most stores have integrity and don't slam or use deceptive practices hitting those... — read more
RIS
Just needs to go away. It’s not doing anything productive for the company. It’s a platform for customers to unload on WHY they’re upset they didn’t get their way. We already lost the multipliers and it continues to only hurt the frontline employees... — read more
Wish we could go back to early off times on holidays
This year kind of sucks with the way things have been. I wish Verizon would atleast give us that extra perk of closing by 4 Xmas eve. It feels like the company has taken every last ounce of fun out of the holidays and have completely forgotten that... — read more
Whistleblowing all kinds of chaos
This post will most likely fall on ALL kinds of deaf ears as that is what happens within this company. I have been removed from this company since roughly June and have thought MANY times to email my old director and I havent. I know it would do... — read more
Between now and Mid February
Just saw that at least one department that takes phone calls will have an early shift change. I’ve been here long enough to know that this happened before a layoff last time. Based on when shifts will be communicated the axe will most likely fall... — read more
Nationwide corporate store hours cut
Q1 corporate store hours will be reduced to one shift…
Many things would be better without useless middle managers
Besides being underpaid, the other reason I intend to quit soon is middle mgmt. There is no justification for their positions, many mid-level managers lack a specific purpose and, in my opinion, only harm Verizon. Is it possible that the most... — read more
Does anybody know how tracfone is doing since vz took over?
Are they gaining or losing lines? What is customer feedback like?
Where is the wage increase?
Who is in control of employee wage decisions? They need to lose their job. How can this company justify drastically increasing their own prices immediately when inflation kicks in, but doesn't do anything at all for their own employees pay? No... — read more

comp plan?
I'm new and I trying to figure out how much we make off a single new line sale? It's not very clear how it works. Seems really convoluted for a sales job? Not sure I want to stick around if this is the comp plan they have. They seem to raise the bar... — read more
Moving abroad
I currently live in the US and have a corporate position at VZ, technically deemed hybrid, but I'm totally remote. Question is, can I move to Europe and maintain my employment or are there laws that prohibit me from working at VZ in another country? — read more
How much overtime do you work?
Although I still work long hours because I'm trying to keep my job and the manager doesn't care how much overtime it requires to meet his expectations, it still seems to me that last year at this time I was doing much more overtime.
Manon Out!!
Finally they kicked out Manon! Makes me wonder what would it take for the board to say that Hans needs to take responsibility for the s***show?
Dividend Guy again
