Potential New Specialists

If you are thinking about applying for one of the newly 1000 jobs available. Don’t do it. It’s a scam they will only lay you off in a few months to a year. This is just a smoke screen to try to reduce fallout from the horrible working conditions. And... — read more 

Verizon The New Sprint

Mandatory Voluntary Survey

I love how we have a voluntary survey that’s mandatory. Like any other survey, if people aren’t eager to take it that means they have nothing good to say. Or they just don’t care. How about release a survey and let whoever wants to take it, simply... — read more

Insulting Scheduling

Sloppy Scheduling

Threatened to quit

After almost a year of being micromanaged to a point of harassment I had to threaten to quit just to get one of my managers off my back. He was an absolute nightmare. I’ve been here long enough to know exactly what I’m doing. I don’t need to be given... — read more 

Talent acquisition is now Token acquisition

We Just Suck Now!

Plain and simple we suck and no one values us. Quit or get fired either way it’s all doom and gloom from here on out. Verizon is just no longer a good place to work. It’s that simple, we suck.

Second Phase

More stores flipped to agents, less GMs and SMs more part time employees. More key holders to compensate for less management. Everyone remaining will continue to be phased out little by little until there are eventually 90% indirect stores. Most... — read more 

Hopeless

Staring contest

Well they've made it miserable enough to want to leave but pay well enough to want to stay. Now we're at a stalemate! VSP is a win-win. Then you can hire all the peppy part-timers you want. In the meantime, I'll keep hanging out.

Just milk the money?

I can barely maintain a positive attitude while the atmosphere in the stores is so bad and demoralizing. Some advise that you should relax and just milk the money, but to me that is no solution. I mean, maybe it could be a solution for me if I was... — read more

Don’t be scared to quit
