Topics regarding layoffs at Verizon Wireless

Why do we complain?

I find it funny when I see people come to this site and respond to our complaints by saying that no one is forcing us to work here and that we need to get out of here. C'mon, I'll definitely get out of here as soon as I get another job. I don't... — read more 

Sooooo funny

It’s funny that Verizon HR has brainwashed so many people to think unions are evil. Hrs biggest talking points for not joining a union are all gone now. “You won’t be able to participate in our sales contest if you join the union” and now we have... — read more 

Insurance cost going up again! Again!

You thought $17 wasn't the right cost? You spoke and they listened! Time to jack the price up again! Let's see what stuff we can bundle hide now. So shameful and we are forced to get customers to buy into these hidden products. It's like bait... — read more 

So does Hans and Ronan want unions?

I LOVE VERIZON. ONE TEAM, & FORWARD TOGETHER!

I feel unsafe now

Retail stores are a joke. Understaffed, extending hours, management stretched thin, too many responsibilities, less money, more stress, customers taking frustrations out on us,, the list is keeps going on. Customers are harassing us more and more... — read more 

Store issues- confirmed

Original post talking about store issues and what would be hours long line is true! Our queue has been up to a 3 hour wait AND we are NOT getting lunch breaks. I have checked with friends at other stores and they are in the same boat. Forget... — read more 

Truth hurts

We all know Verizon Wireless is a horrible place to work. We all know that it's filled with cr—y managers who don't know anything about their jobs and who keep making bad decisions they blame on the rest of us. We all know that the toxic work... — read more

No products to sell

Is anyone else having the issue in their store of not having any products or accessories in stock? We literally have no phones in stock. Free phones are gone, barely any iPhones or Samsung’s. On top of that there’s no accessories at all to sell. We... — read more 

Forcing people to resign?

I think that the company is still able to provide us with better working conditions, higher pay and better benefits, but it seems that they deliberately don't want to do so because they want as many of us as possible to resign. That is my personal... — read more 

Hey VernShaut from Watercooler

I'm posting on here out of fear of retaliation from leadership. But you seem to have a lot of input on surveys, so let me ask you this: When was the last time you lost 25% of your monthly income because some insatiable customer CHOSE to rate YOU a... — read more 

Every day I care less and less

REP for many years (almost 10), I made good money up until last 2 years and I am good at my job. However now you threaten us if we talk about a survey that effects our pay? You want us to push some sh—yprotection plan and not talk about lower... — read more

UNIONS ARE NOT NEEDED

The union will not fix these problems. Finding a better job will. I work at Verizon Wireless as a Tech Support agent and having been doing this job for 9 years now. Each and every year this job just keeps getting worse and worse. We had 3 day... — read more 

WE NEED UNIONS

Look at how many class action law suits Verizon is going through, it’s clear now more than ever. The union would 100% protect us better than this corporation that is pushing its employees out of the door. Upper management has a super elitist... — read more 

Tired of having my job threatened

Stop threating to write us up based on "contribution report". I will sue the s–tout of Verizon for retaliation.... Bring it. I will not slam VZP and devert loyal customers to the app because "we don't want it to effect our numbers"

Elitist attitude

Corporate manager jobs are all that matter to these elitist. The people that sell and the customers that purchase just keep getting in the way. Mu hu ha ha - we can get rid of both by messing with retail headcount! Then we can take our important... — read more

Retail SMB?

Why were they moved to a different channel? Seems like they’re in a bad spot. Most of the reps relied on retail and now that retail has no real incentive these smb folks are getting exposed.

Part time

If they make us move to 32 hours and start making us work 5 days I would jump on that union band wagon in a heart beat and pay that $10 a week to keep me at 4 days a week. No way am I going to drive 40 minutes a day and back for 6 1/2 hours. Plus... — read more 

Pointless meetings

Beep beep here comes the short bus... Wonder what fire crotch and miss management have up their selves now. Most likely more virtue signaling about things they are very very far from in life. The fact that they even feel the need to do it is just a... — read more

What about the RWDSU?

The CWA seems like they're useless. What about the RWDSU? I know I'm going to do some research. The RWDSU even talks about unfair commission changes to pay workers less. Sound familiar? We have more options other than the CWA.

Less pay, same results?

They want to see profit even though our pay has been cut significantly. Which really goes to show how little they know. We are not going to try to sell anymore with this comp. Less pay same results (...) After my pay was significantly cut, I also... — read more 

How to Ruin Retail for Dummies + solutions

Part Time Transition

So part time sounds very interesting but after speaking with a few people it sounds like they can still schedule you 5 days a week and keep you under 32 hours... sounds like a great option for me if it’s guaranteed 4 days a week 9 hour shifts like... — read more

Job-shopping taught me several things

The most important one being that our pay is not nearly as competitive as they'd like us to think. I've received a few offers and all but one were 20 to 30 percent higher than what I make right now. I'm still reluctant to accept any of them because... — read more
