Thread regarding Verizon Wireless layoffs

"Consultants" making their rounds...

Looks like the "Bobs" recently had chats with leadership from a few groups. Not exactly sure which ones, but I noticed that somebody in Network Assurance signed them into a building a few weeks ago.

Get your affairs in order...just in case.

Network assurance could lose another 30%. They cry about resources but are working 10am-3pm days and scam overtime on the weekend to catch up on their work

Network Assurance is a very large and diverse group sub-organizations. I'm not sure which part of the country you're seeing that, but most people in the Network Assurance organization are no longer allowed to breach 40 hours. It's been that way for a year or two now.

"Peter Gibbons: The thing is Bob, it's not that I'm lazy, it's that I just don't care.
Bob Porter: Don't... don't care?
Peter Gibbons: It's a problem of motivation, all right? Now if I work my a– off and Initech ships a few extra units, I don't see another dime; so where's the motivation? And here's something else, Bob, I have eight different bosses right now.
Bob Slydell: I beg your pardon?
Peter Gibbons: Eight bosses.
Bob Slydell: Eight?
Peter Gibbons: Eight, Bob. So that means that when I make a mistake, I have eight different people coming by to tell me about it. That's my only real motivation is not to be hassled; that, and the fear of losing my job. But you know, Bob, that will only make someone work just hard enough not to get fired."

LOVE THAT MOVIE!

Yup. Consultants are used to roll heads at Verizon. They make recommendations, and the sheep, I mean leaders sign off on it.

You'll understand if you go watch the movie "Office Space".

"Efficiency Experts" on the move.
