I'm glad when I read people saying that they can't wait for RIFs. This means that they are prepared. Obviously there is many more of those who did prepare than those who didn't - like me!? Unfortunately, I didn't start planning exit on time so my... — read more 

So the solution for connection issues/speed issues is to repackage and sell it from walmart?

I have never worked in a company where the leadership is more disconnected from employees than here. You? It's as if they expect the employees to care more about the future of this company than they do, even though we are mostly inadequately... — read more 

Reminder that pulse isn’t anonymous, despite what you are told. If you want to send a message, don’t do it. Leaders hate hate.

A buddy from a different group said his team had a meeting yesterday and their manager mentioned his team would not be affected by upcoming RIFs. My team was not given any such direction, gulp.

You would think the stores were on individual commission with all these download calls going over metrics etc. BTW those stores at the top celebrating wins are doing so by slamming. Integrity doesn’t matter.

Today's trading sideways feels like a win at this point. This is depressing. I feel bad for everyone's 401k....

That's my impression. The reason is that the management did everything to demoralize and demotivate employees who once loved their job and worked very hard. It is obvious that most people here are just trying to stay a little longer until they find... — read more 

If you're gonna lay people off it would make sense to ask for volunteers. Why not lay people off who want to to be laid-off rather than people that want to stay?

Stop posting fake layoff news and ,make up stories about this great company. Move on previous employees! Stop trolling! We love this company and great opportunities it provides to more than 140,000 employees and hundred and thousands of... — read more 

Why are we pushing an Outlook target? I’m from an Ohio store and my RM is up in arms about an outlook target, but can’t explain what it actually is and I’m having a hard time understanding why some stores have much higher outlook targets than other... — read more 

Since the diminishment of our commission structure and low raises that did not even cover inflation rates. I feel it maybe a good idea to go part time 32 hours (to keep benefits) and possibly get a second job in the evenings if the crew allows me... — read more 

Until now, I have always given good reviews on pulse survey because I thought that I could become jobless if I gave a bad review. How much do you think giving a bad review can jeopardize someone's job here?

Hans Vestberg biggest fraud ever! https://www.fiercewireless.com/wireless/ericsson-plans-to-take-1-23b-hit-for-corruption-fine-q3-2019 That's your CEO Vteamers!

Welcome to working at Blockbuster 2.0 Soon you will be selling candy and popcorn to customers

Thank you C-Suite and the Board. You are priceless !

Can we vote that if the stock isn't above $60.00 Hans doesn't get his golden parachute?

My personal opinion is that cuts are inevitable. Does anyone think otherwise? I am not saying with certainty that there will be cuts, nor do I want to raise panic, but I just think that they are inevitable because the company is in a bad situation... — read more 

Thanks Tami, Thanks Hans! Thank you all leadership for all you have done.

VBG is going to have a massive RIF this week. As much as 25% of teams and orgs will be laid off. Hidden Ridge in TX is being sold off and closed within the next 6 months. Also some retail stores will be closing

Manager cancelled our morning meeting, and Director cancelled our 3pm market call. I'm not sure what, but it seems like something is up. Reached out to my peers in the West, their team call was cancelled as well. Lastly I checked MP,Director,and VP... — read more 

Interesting that the Pulse survey is launching on 10/17 and RIFs are rumored for 10/27. So it can either be that they want people to be afraid to be honest with feedback for fear of losing their job so the scores will be high. Or they want to see... — read more 

Business representatives make way too much. Front line workers are expected to do the work and close the business down in store, for a measly commission check; however the money gets funneled into the business reps pockets for the sales we made. I... — read more 

Is there a way to get HV outta here? It'll probably require someones password because its a high risk transaction but he really needs to take his parachute and leave. High risk high reward.

Looks like Verizon is not doing very well. This should be a wake-up call for everyone at the WOKE HQ to stop doing those stupid videos and get back to work. This is not good for 4Q and the numbers probably are going to be really bad bringing the... — read more 

We have reps not making a check for months just their hourly... Verizon the new Blockbuster coming soon! PS Switch to Visible or the new prepay service Hans skinny pants were just bragging about days ago.

What positions are being cut? R2b? B2B? Seems strange that they would cut the channel that actually has net gains

Stock price as of now $38 wow!!! I hope Hans will be wearing bigger pants and socks to give the news of how horrible we are doing although He keeps getting paid like nothing is happening! Good luck Vteamers!

Any one else see the high risk transaction screen with every sale? What's the purpose for this added extra step to our transactions?

Of course, this is noting new. I think that this place has lost its direction long time ago. Why? This could be a long discussion but the question that remains is whether the company will manage to get back on track, because it is obvious that the... — read more

Im tired of all these “do you think we would get severance??” post. Please STOP Verizon will NOT give out any severance at all, you have a higher chance of getting written up for not selling 5G than a severance package .

Hans, your stay at Verizon is both unwelcome and undignified. You have now damaged your second corporation, impacting thousands of lives on two different sides of the world. Maybe you should consider permanent, corporate retirement. You must have... — read more
