They are stuck with the rotten egg now. This event has caused irreparable harm to Yahoo in terms of customer trust and usage. But now there is no easy way out, if at all. Darn the luck!

This is a match made in heaven - two companies past their prime join forces and get what? One large company past their prime and in debt up to its eyeballs. Good job Lowell, keep destroying the lives of employees while looking like a dumb--s to Wall street and pissing off customers.
To quote the super genius financial wizard Shamwow: "At the end of the day, people don't need unlimited plans,". Yes Shamclown, and at the end of the day people don't need Verizon.
But my favorite all time Shammoo quote is: "If the customer who is just price-sensitive and does not care about the quality of the network—or is sufficient with just paying a lower price—that’s probably the customer we’re not going to be able to keep," - PURE GENIOUS. GIVE THIS MAN A RAISE! LOL
Sounds like the sacrosanct dividend is in trouble with this crowd
dumb idiots.... What we got is a rising star....

VZ & Yahoo are made for each other...two dumb leadership teams sinking...two declining companies...welcome to the New Verizon...hope you're proud of the mess!!
VZ got played!! Its unbelievable how these leaders can make all these bad decisions and not be fired. If employees come in late too many times they're fired, yet these morons can waste millions and nothing happens - the elitism is maddening - something needs to stop. Lowell is the worst CEO!! Just more RIFs to cover bad decisions. Get out now - there are other companies that are better. KARMA never expires!!
Money will need to be spent to correct whatever is still in what they have acquired. In addition, marketing communication is important to allay customer fears. Not ideal way to start off. I suspect the usual by Thanksgiving and Christmas RIFs.
As a retiree, I'll be watching my VZ stock closely. It's carrying great debt, yet it is still a buy from most analysts.
Good Luck
I love it!
Verizon could F _ _ K up a wet dream!
Now I can see why the big rat shamwow is leaving the ship after crapping on the shareholders yey again!
Great job marni!
Verizon deserves it! KARMA is a b**ch..
It's going down, grab a life jacket.
