Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

We've seen this play before when a former IT leader moved over from Wireless to Wireline. He brought all his friends and family over to Wireline IT and pushed all the incumbents out. It was a 3 for 1 special. He replaced one existing executive with three and IT became severely bloated in no time. You won't recognize the place in a year.

I can’t fill out the pulse honestly. It isn’t my managers fault but they will be the one to catch he-l if I say bad things.

Leadership !#? If only more folks completed pulse honestly we might actually get leaders. So called leadership only care about leveraging the experienced professionals, and taking credit for thier teams successes, and about thier own promotions. Our so called leadership are incompetent and dont give 2 craps about verizon. Just keep watching what they do.

Vote!! If you have verizon shares , and you get to vote. You should of received a package in the mail this week some time. Vote them out

The real screwup was Lowell McDumbass. Way overpaid for Vodaphone's share of wireless and then went on a buying spree of solid tu-d companies. Not to mention the whole GO90 bullsh-t. We have a massive debt overhang just due to his massive idiocy.

Hans had worn out his welcome. We should be able to give him a performance review as employees to determine his raise and bonuses. He’s running a multi billion dollar company that was doing fine before he got here.

Shanks has destroyed IT. I can't believe he is still here.

They all failed, everyone in place is failing.

Ronan was an utterly failure, so was Manon. She was somehow worse.

@2tzi+1m2FAr4u You must be the evening dog runner for Shankar

What a circus!

Everyone except Hans, who should have been shown the door a long time ago.

I say woke a lot, I’m read little and understand less

For those blasting Shankar, get a life. He was forced by Hans into using Infosys, and they were the second choice, first was Big Blue. He took the heat that Hans should have taken over that mess.

Shanks is too busy counting all the kick backs he got from Infosys for make that shady deal that expires this year. I’m shocked no one has call him out on it and did a full audit.

What a bunch of losers! How did we get here?

@1zfp+1m2FAr4u Shankar isn't an EVP, hence why he isn't listed, he don't count. He reports to someone else and not directly to Hans

Isn't Shankar still around? CIO ? Rarely hear anything about him any more. Why is he not listed on VZs executives website page?

Sampath, Rima and Vandana are listed on the website.

I am going to guess that the long term CFO chosen to replace Ellis will be Indian.

Verizon is no longer an American corporation. It is an Indian corporation.

I believe this was Hans and Shankar's plan all along.

Purchase a woke agenda and hide behind your company paid for cloak of goodness. Utilize woke hiring quotas to fill positions under you with people that pose no threat to your job. Constantly reshuffle management, lazy dishonest people love to hide under the cover of chaos. This is why Hans is still hanging on.

Most who came from the wireless side, or from the USA are being pushed out.

Kyle will be gone soon. What does he know about running a business group. He’s a network geek. He’s not polished for a gig like that. The have joe the meatball in his spot, he’s about a polished as a tu-d, I wouldn’t expect too much from a Fred flitstone look alike. Diego is a washed up fashion guy and it’s shows, what has he done that moved the needle. It’s just musical chairs. And you have Hans posting on instagram of him running, As he’s running the company into the ground. Oh well. Be smart don’t waste extra energy working here, they don’t care and your going to look back wondering why when they rif you.

Why should we listen to anything management says?
Look at what they did to this company

Just simply help get the equity price back to the mid $50+/share. Without having to cut the share dividends.
