Hi all, Verizon union employee here. It was just announced that Hans Vestberg will be our new CEO. I'm wondering what Hans track record was with unions as the Ericsson CEO? Verizon had been talking about extending the current union contract but I wonder if Hans becoming CEO throws a monkey wrench in that plan. Thanks for any insight.

I don't know about unions but I got to say that because there are at least two ex-executives from Ericsson at Verizon now, that Ericsson has an advantage over Nokia or Samsung. I'm sure due to the past relationship with Ericsson, Verizon is sure to give majority of the 5G contract percentage to Ericsson.
