It will be interesting to look back in five years

I'll only be here a few more days. It was hard for me to make a decision because it is not easy to start from scratch. However, I decided to leave because it is becoming increasingly clear that the leadership of this company has no vision. They are... — read more

Why would anyone be looking for a job here now?

New hires... I just wonder if these people did any research before they applied here. I can’t believe these young people have no other options and that this is their only and best option. I simply can't believe it. This is a company that now ... — read more

How many people still visit stores?

Honestly, with online shopping being so prevalent, how much foot traffic do stores get these days? I'm assuming it's mostly seniors who are refusing to learn how to use anything that was invented in the last 30+ years. This is a genuine question: how... — read more 

Whyyyy!???

If I hustle my a$$ off and contribute 60-70% to my stores quota every month, WHY should the lazy old timer that averages about 12 new lines a month & calls out twice a week be paid the SAME amount as me? For the love of god can someone please give... — read more 

Why wait for rumors or likely events?

Working here for me was a test how much stress I could tolerate. I don't know if I found it harder to bear the fact that we were understaffed and overwhelmed or the fact that everyone's position was so unstable and that it was possible to get cut any... — read more

Down the shills

So apparently the company can pay people to down vote anything that is said to put the company in a bad light, but we can't hire anyone, can't get pens or post-it notes, can't get a POS system that works, can't figure out why people are dropping like... — read more

Is it worth waiting for severance pay?

Rumors are circulating about upcoming layoffs and I hope to be the target. Don’t get me wrong, I feel sorry for those who want to stay here, but I want layoff and severance pay. I wouldn’t miss severance for just any job offer because I’ve worked... — read more 

Remember

The inflation rate is 7%, therefore if Verizon gives you a raise of anything 7% or less, It’s not actually a raise. You are actually getting a decrease in pay.

Failure

It's bound to happen. They are so off course and blinded to reality. When the majority of DMs and above have lost touch with retail it's inevitable. Unfortunately the path they are going down is in the wrong direction. They will accidentally destroy... — read more

Realistic quotas

I think you will agree that quotas are mostly unrealistic. People are overwhelmed. Is it even possible to hope for realistic quotas or is the only solution to leave this ridiculous company?

SHUT DOWN THE STORES!

We are barely hanging on by a thread in Austin-South Texas. Profits over people has been the motto around the area. How many employees need to be sick to realize the covid procedures are absolute garbage now.

Are they waiting for everyone to be positive or what?

Would you be better off if they closed stores?

It's interesting to me what those who hope that stores will be closed are writing. Is it possible that someone thinks they will be much better off if the company closes stores?
