Looks like the stores are going back to the individual commission structure. Who didn't see that coming ? You can only bleed so much before those egos got deflated.
New Hires getting higher hourly pay then long term employees
Newly hired employees are making several dollars an hour more than employees in the same role, same store, that have been here for years? There are several disgruntled employees across several locations now, it just does not seem ethical to pay new... — read more
Hans
Your signal strength is a 1. You offered yourself a package and you should take it. It’s time you go home and sit on your Covid couch like the rest of Verizon’s leadership. BTW we all know that your signaling of virtue is not sincere due to the fact... — read more
Micromanagers abroad
Give some examples on how your manager tries to micromanage you. Maybe they stand next to you, not to help but maybe just listen to see if you are selling everything you are supposed to sell. Maybe they needlessly ask what you are working on every... — read more
Staffing issues remain a major issue
When is Verizon going to do something about the staffing issues in the corporate stores? So many people are out on short term either due to covid or whatever , sick calls are through the roof. Factor in all the vacation time and it’s a recipe for... — read more
Remember when leadership knew how to fight?
In the past, if Verizon posted results as poor as this quarter's, leadership, and the whole company was ready for a fight. There was a huge sense of urgency to build new strategies to take on the competition. But the non-American leadership of... — read more
Women of wireless
Just wondering is this still a thing? If it is wow the company is doing great !! I wonder if any group or segment of population would feel discriminated against . Thanks Hans !!!!!
Day 5
Now I know my ABC's! Won't you come and sing with me?
Day 4
You know the line. They ain't doing jack.
Wireless Retail Uniforms
Long ago Verizon used to use Lands' End for their Retail store clothing. Seems much more casual now days with jeans and limited color shirts. Does anyone know if you can dress how you want or what company provides their uniforms now?
Day 3
Of nothing from the board, Verizon and Hans.
If you got a chance to ask whatever you wanted during a town hall, what would it be?
None of that preselected cr-p, just anything goes.
Stock Price (GMAB)
Of course Verizon’s stock is down. EVERYTHING across the market is screwed. We’re entering a recession. Verizon has been around this before. They’ll be fine. Outside of that look around and buy up all the dips this beautiful market is blessing us... — read more
Day 2
Of Verizon and hans not doing anything to improve share price.
Woke=Broke=Hans!
Should have concentrated more on the Business rather than saving the world!
Day 1
Of Verizon doing no changes it improve share price.
The stock is $44 today from $51 last week
Very alarming how VZ stock goes down without a Parachute! 5G sales don't work! What's the point of selling a 5G Home for the device to come back in less than 30 days because it doesn't work.
The days of the network selling itself are over!
Too bad all of your best have already jumped ship. When you don't value your employees you are left with mediocracy. Board should be voted out for allowing current incompetent leadership to remain. Good thing I already sold all my stock. Pretty... — read more
Time for a change
It is very clear that time is running out. Verizon needs new Leadership. Hans has failed to meet his own goals.
Hey Lowell; Thanks for Hans; And Ruining VZ!
Lowell McAdam needs to be tarred and feathered for naming Hans CEO 5 or so years ago. Denny handed him a Ferrari of a company and Hans has turned us into a Pinto. By replacing all Americans in the C level, keeping the worst marketing executive... — read more
Q2 Horrible Numbers, get ready for Layoffs and Hire freeze
The numbers were horrible, the stock went down $10 and right now looks bad compared to ATT and Tmobile. So what's next? You all know what's next when companies go red in their books... Vteamers Layoffs! Reconstruction..... (Higher Qs) Less... — read more
Verizon adds 227,000 Business customers Q2 , what a farce !!
What percentage of that is One Talk lines that remain dormant without usage? This company is a joke. Keep slamming those OT !
2q results
Wow. What poor results. Our strategy clearly isn't working in consumer. Hopefully some big changes come soon and those leaders responsible for this horrible approach are held accountable. They have no idea how bad the customer and employee experience... — read more
Any GMs out there?
Being a adult baby sitter, this job sucks. Can’t even get another job outside of retail. How’s everyone else doing?
Team Commissions
Love sharing my wins with my fellow teammates. Not really teammates we’re family at my store. That’s how we roll!! #VZgang
Conflicting massages
I am glad that someone here mentioned what has been bothering me for a long time in this company. How many times do you get very conflicting messages from managers, one wanting one thing, and the other exactly the opposite? How do you deal with... — read more
Change in the future
It is the concept of being comfortable or trying something new. The younger people have more chance to move around and find what they want as their responsibilities are usually less than those of us that have a longer time on this planet. While I... — read more
Major changes coming
Expect major changes to the operations team. VCG about to undergo a major reorganization this quarter. Also hearing for retail all locations will go down to 1 GM and 1 AM besides the few remaining multi locations. Express stores are about to be... — read more
New generations are smarter
Many are stuck here because they believed that loyalty has some value. Have you noticed that young new hires are staying here shorter and shorter? It is no longer unusual for them to leave after just one month of working here.
Complaining doesn't solve anything
I would be happy to make many complaints if I knew that my complaints would change something here for the better. How interested are the top dogs in hearing our complaints? I'm afraid they are not at all. Isn't it easier to find a new job than... — read more
What are the advantages of working in a larger store location ?
Do the larger locations make bigger team comp ? Is hourly pay better ?
Perhaps it is wiser to try to keep good employees
The company makes almost no effort to retain even the best employees. After such an employee leaves to realize his full potential elsewhere, he or she is replaced by someone whose competences are quite disappointing. The worst thing is that those... — read more
Locations Joining Labor Groups
More and more locations are joining. Mich just started recently. At this point it is funny to watch.
Sign on Bonus
Its amazing how many new hires are leaving after they receive there sign on bonus. Just goes to show that FAILURE is the new way at knock off nike.
We can’t ask customers for a 5 on surveys
But the company can ask us to give us 5’s on pulse? Lmao
So we cant ask customers to give us a 5 on surveys...
But the company can ask us to rate them a 5 on pulse? Who comes up with this nonsense? Why are we wasting time on these things?
How much longer will the SM (aka door greeter) position last ?
When is the company going to realize they can just hire actual door greeters and save a fortune eliminating the SM position ?
Finally gone
So glad I don’t work for Verizon anymore. They refuse to pay people at all levels under C level. Over worked and underpaid! Bye.
Retail Rules
I used to work at best buy and have been working at VZ corporate store for 6 months. Man this job rocks! The pay is amazing, I love thet we share commissions and don’t have to fight each other for sales! Such great culture, I’m going to be a ASM... — read more
They are convinced that this is an excellent workplace
I have no other explanation why nothing here changes for the better while the best people are leaving. The only thing that comes to mind is that maybe the leadership thinks that this is an excellent workplace, and that we are the ones who are... — read more
