Confirmed South VBG AD cuts
Just got told by my AD that her last day is 12/19
California Union Layoffs?
Anything on CA side of thing yet?
So nice of VZ letting us keep our employee discount for 52 weeks after our last day
I guess they are truly looking after the employees being laid off. That is why I am moving all my 6 lines to T-Mobile. Based on my initial calculations it will come out less than what I am paying with the employee discount. Let that sink in :)
Learning and Careers - just found out. Been with VZ for 15 years across retail and then in biz sales before switching to training. Sad.
Same news as others posted.
Phone Discount
So, it seems that higher-ups have been reading this site, as they have extended the employee discount to 52 weeks from the last day on payroll. Therefore, don't be too quick to disconnect your service. Unless of course, you don't want to give VZ any... — read more

DAN- SELL THE 4 JETS
PAY SOME DEBT THAT WAY, YOU MAD MAN! WE BETTER NOT HEAR THAT YOU ARE ALL USING THOSE WHEN YOU DECIDE TO PAY VISITS TO SEE WHAT IS LEFT OF A ONCE-GREAT COMPANY
VGS BISO Team
Organizational updates meeting with Nasrin at 930am EST. She said if you’re on here that means you’re safe. Looks like all the BISO’s got axed and will be under 1 BISO now.
All corporate stores in North Carolina have been axed.
This company is absolutely mad. They're just throwing in the towel to T-Mobile.
Will it be over after today?
Can they cut 13k people in a single day?
VCG Portfolio Success Management (PSM) gone
About 80% of the whole VCG PSM organization was let go. That includes Program and Process Orchestration (PPO), Portfolio, and Project Management (PMO). Good luck out there!
Just Got Let Go
Band 6 - Lake Mary - AID . OUT
Cut
Got the axe this morning. Band 8 Engr. Was doing the work for higher band team members. It is ironic that Dan wants to get leaner and perform better but keeps bloat that has been here for nearly a decade, but kicks younger employees to the curb.
Some fat trimming
Was told 1/3 of the top 300 were impacted.
VBG post your updates here!
Verizon business group If you were impacted, please post your details here. Letting us know your position would help greatly, especially us folks in the West coast.
