We’d probably know more by now, or at least I hope so. I could use a little more time. I got an offer for another job. Nothing spectacular, but considering how things are going here, even a so-so alternative looks better right now. I hope you’re all... — read more 

Hit the dislike count and lets see how many people actually go on this site!

All Tri-State should ask the question about layoff rumors

I see HCL let the majority of people that came over from managed services go now. Post VSP I look back and am glad I took it. Really hope those whom were part of the HCL cuts make out okay in this economy.

Can you imagine having to go through this stress and anxiety for four more weeks?

I've been in a couple meetings late last week and management Sr director, ADs, SMs all mentioning the site as if our fear isn't valid. Basically they all were saying everything here is fake and no one really knows. Just strange that higher-ups... — read more

I’ve seen tooth dates stated- if anyone in here really knows then provide details on what group you’re in and where you got your information. It’s inevitable there will be layoffs - people just want a heads up.

The only good thing at Verizon.

We can’t possibly have another level up while riffing at the same time…can we?

Why they give me only 2 weeks? I put on my resume that I’m management material. How long before I apply for greatnes? I heard the office was a hoe down show down ya feel. When we going back?

Do you think the rebrand actualy changes anything for customers, or just distracts Wall Street? It feels frivolous to millions spent to tweak colors and slogans while service, pricing, and morale keep sliding. Isn’t it just lipstick on the same old... — read more 

If layoffs are really coming, which group do you think gets hit first: tech, retail, or shared services?

This should have been an offer for Visible. The street is not going to like this next week…

So is it safe to say the Verizon rebrand was an expensive fail at this point? Anyone being held accountable?

Canceled abruptly!

Or are we still in rumorland? I’ve been hearing similar things, but nothing certain. 15% RIF across the board, notice on Nov 20, off payroll Dec 19 is what we were told. OP: @d5+1k89bz5ta

Has anyone heard of any big leaders "retiring" or leaving the company?

It would seem this is a poorly kept secret that Verizon Connect likely will be sold. Recent activity by leadership looks like they are best positioning the company's cash position and unexpected re-alignment internally. The stars are aligning.

Do I need to worry about layoffs? From what I’ve heard, it’s usually the people who’ve been here much longer. On top of that, my pay is so low it’s hard to imagine I’d be considered a big cost to cut.

just saw someone crying :(. 7-3

Has anyone received their notification yet?

Seems quiet on the rumors (Fingers crossed)
