@@YJnYJFL-2nfo: sorry don't understand?? please explain..............
infosys use scare tactics to frighten workers, they also bring people for training from Verizon person leaving then they end up cutting person from account who just got trained.
@YJnYJFL-2hsg: worthy question????? (why do you ask???)
Had proudly invested over 20+ years within IT at VZ.
I solely decided Infosys because I discerned, Shankar's pledge, I would continue to do my duties as when working at VZ.
Cannot do my IT duties as when working at VZ which I was proficient and darn good at performing???
Due to poor management decision making == there are 3 IT professionals that should not have been identified to be displaced/rebadged.
Positions were not a requisition and were not included in the Infosys contract.
Pondering, again, why do you inquire??
infosys use scare tactics to frighten workers, they also bring people for training from Verizon person leaving then they end up cutting person from account who just got trained. very low morale at infosys very untrusting place.
Could you be clearer. You took the Infosys rebadge and are in Infosys? What are you encountering. How many years service did you have at VZ
at the end of the day white collar professional jobs being shifted off-shore to india.
what don't you all understand?
VZ executives are incompetent and a disgrace thus earning the huge salaries to contrast the large disparity of the incomes of the working class.
@all: Infosys reductions should direct the question to Shankar and Vivek who screwed the IT rebadged VZ employees.
because Shankar was in bed with Pete from Infosys.
Pete and the both the VZ foreigners should be deported back to India.
@2fle: appreciate the RIF legal language. cannot collect state unemployment.
wish I would have taken the esp and not the Infosys job = K/T and Reverse K/T.
@1tar: this has nothing to do with VZ India nor VDSI. Please include more of your insight when posting. I don't follow. I was a VZ IT employee and got the shaft. What don't you comprehend??
@2eov: I would not believe anything in writing from an overseas and foreign source. Fake news exists in Indian journalism as does corruption?? and I am an IT Asian-Indian who was displaced because I don't work in Atlanta or Tampa and was not asked to relocate.
by the way Infosys s---s.............. VZ was a good job as Infosys is trying to pass the time until being RIFed after the first year.
everyone is welcomed to this board irrespective of when/where you worked for VZ and your rear view mirror status............
everyone should look themselves in their mirror and take a deep breath before posting.

The ESP letter makes it clear that it is a RIF
This is to advise you that, due to reductions, restaffing or reorganization of the workforce in your organization, your position has been impacted. Your last day on Verizon payroll will be "mm/dd/yyyy"
The forum already exists, though I pray you never need it:

Sounds like what you need is an Infosys layoff board sometime in the future @YJnYJFL-@2fiq if what you are saying comes to fruition.
How is that so difficult to understand?
At first, employees targeted for rebadging were told to take the infy offer or be TERMINATED with NOTHING. Then because VZ screwed up by offering VSP to 44K employees they had to allow those to be rebadged the same offer. @YJnYJFL-1pnv, it is a layoff because there is no choice to stay with VZ. Employees targeted for rebadging were explicitly told they cannot apply for internal VZ jobs. The choice was to either go with Infy or take the enhanced separation package.
@YJnYJFL-1pnv - How is this so difficult to understand? Employees targeted for rebadging have no option to stay with VZ. Do you think that Infy is going to keep ex-VZ employees that accepted their offer? Once KT is done, they can move those jobs offshore. Why would Infy keep expensive ex-VZ employees? It's their business model to provide cheap IT labor.
@1ifv That post makes no sense. By your logic no one should be posting here now, including all the VSPers. Anyone who left the business between December and June gets the enhanced severance. Why are YOU here?
@1kio: June terminations received six (6) months of VZ employment, salary + benefits, from December 28, 2018.
June terminations will receive the "elected" VZ severance pay.
How would you define that outocme, layoffs or buyouts, or the best of all worlds???
I would call that a choice, or a buyout, not a layoff.
and the rebadged who declined will be terminated by June. I'd call that a layoff, wouldn't you?
Compromise @1ane. Take it to a rebadge site. This is a layoff site.
Get over it @1tar. It was more than vz india who was rebadged. Don't like it, don't read it.
Take it to the vz india or infosys site
@1qpt: how did you quantify??
Absolute percentage value of remaining rebadged irrespective of resignation???
Please send Shankar a thank you == dhanyavad!!!
Do you need a passport to go to work in India??
Would I also need a Visa for India as I am a proud US Citizen.
All: Shankar and Vivek win !!!
@1awa I didn't think anyone would be left at the end of year 1, so these stats look good.
Of course, I'd expect ALL onshore to be gone by then.
Of course, many might quit after they get their signon bonus
Leaked Infosys email!!
VZ account layoffs (12/28/2018 wave):
1st year, minus 10% of 2,100 incumbents.
2nd year, minus 20% of 2,100 incumbents.
3rd year, % pending??
4th year, % pending??

Maybe a bit harsh. He is only lying 🤥 when his lips are moving
1haj....I would believe a word that comes out of that man’s mouth. He is known for lying.
Just another example of a worthless foreign executive that has damaged Verizon beyond repair in the spirit Diversity. Thank you for digging the hole deeper. I agree with the comment of the earlier response about writing to the Govt. about the shifting of white color jobs from the USA to foreign countries. Shankar should have been gone the minute he Shankared everyone with Google Suites. His end and time with the company cant come soon enough but unfortunately after the major damage has been done.
About 3 talks back he was asked about rebadging and he said no rebadging would happen in 2019.
So which speech is this? When was it given. I have tuned out of these speeches for a while
I have it from senior leaders that SA and VG were rejected by Infosys.
Give it to Infosys, they know talent.
I laughed when I saw it. Shankar trie so hard and he is such a mess. Can’t contact with anyone regardless of the endless prep. He needs to step down before his buddy Pushes him
Shankar: Rebadge and then booted out by the new employer after one (1) year because the jobs will be offshored.
I have written to our Commander-in-Chief, Mr. Trump, about VZ's Shankar and Hans, where US white-collar jobs will be shipped overseas to India.
Shankar and Vivek need to be rebadged to Infosys to join the primary company for VZ IT work.
