No, but RIFs in the NOC team would not surprise me. Vz executives toured the Facebook HQ campus a while back and noticed that they only staff a handful of Techs per shift to monitor their network. Of course Vz executives now think that 1 or 2 NOC Techs should be able to surveil the entire wireless network at any given time. For the record Facebook network topography is nowhere near as complex as the Vz wireless network....Vz leadership has become totally myopic in their quest for saving a dollar. The drive towards automation and callout reductions happening in ‘17 are the beginning of their plan. If I worked in the NOC I would organize.
