Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

Managers of RETAIL.....

They are still acting like their job is secured... Stop with the bs “I’m gonna coach you until you die about this plastic piece of sh-- HUM” type of thing.

It’s annoying & you’re on the list just as much as your sales reps are... you might lose your store to your Favorite Company whose livelihood is to FIRE YOU & EVERYONE else who isn’t profitable to them.

Get off the gas & let grown ups be grownups, y’all don’t do sh-- else anyway...

Keep whittling the payout for commission down so we are all making 700/800 a month, change comp plan, tell us all how new comp plan is awesome and we can all achieve 1350 by just hitting a 1.2. it's coming, been here long enough to see it several times over. Anytime comp plan is changed its to make the company more and us less, ask the smb reps how their new comp plan is....sooner or later commission will be gone and what few stores are left will be full of punks making 10.00 an hour to hand you a bag for your in store pickup.

Meh. My store has the highest conversion rate in the district, highest SMB adds each month, highest pull through percentage, highest tmp take rate, always an ard over 100, and all with middle of the pack traffic. I haven’t seen a multiplier better than 1.15 since 2016.

TLDR; my store does hella more with less, and even though we kick all kinds of a--, quota is always just high enough I barely hit base commission.

I’m not saying I’m safe in my job, Because I don’t care. Im just gonna half a-- it until I get a severance check, or find something better.

No point in working hard for nothing.

What's funny is yoy numbers are up in our region for new.lines, but nobody is close to hitting quota every month. So, people are being written up daily for numbers because they are unobtainable, but we are actually selling more new than last year. Our renewals are down by almost half, but that quota keeps going up also. In short, the company raises quota, we sell more company makes more money, quotas are set so high we can't hit them, company doesn't have to pay us, they make more money, numbers are unattainable, people get coached out of a job, jobs aren't back filled, again company making/ saving money. There is nothing left to cut to save money except for jobs. Why not get rid of a lot of hese people above store level that do nothing but make our jobs worse.

Forget the whole thing. I’m so tired of VZ & all of their unattainable metrics they KNOW are unrealistic and the idiotic mgrs who keep pushing this crap knowing IT IS NOT doable

I think they keep pushing to FIRE people
