I've read at least a dozen different things - What's going to happen? They signed a 20-year lease for the office space and it's by far the most attractive office we have IMO.

As title says.. I will vote for C. Paul and Vivek (whatever the last name is). They both need to be packed and shipped out asap. They are robbing Verizon. CX su-ks at all levels.

Im seeing posts about this but no departments or business groups named. Im guessing no one really knows and its speculation based on past years? We can only hope for another VSP.

Who filled out the Pulse survey? And more importantly - were you brutally honest?

On October 6, 2025, Verizon filed a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing, among other things, the appointment of Daniel H. Schulman as Chief Executive Officer, effective as of October 4, 2025. Verizon is filing this Amendment No. 1 to such Current... — read more 

say 3rd qtr meetings are combining with rif informs. Incoming!! Get your affairs in order

Been at vz over 5 years with no vacation increase ever.

Hans did not have the experience or knowledge to lead Verizon - smoke and mirrors and everyone else paid the price(especially employees with vz stock). Sampath is not the right leader either. Stratton is the best fit to turn the company and stock... — read more 

Who do you think the board will sell Verizon to after they finish looting it for all they can squeeze out of it?

NJ WARN Notice. If Verizon lays off more than 50 people, they may be listed around 10/23. But not sure if they have to be listed if they give employees 60 day notice. Nokia USA always gets away from being listed. Not sure... — read more 

Over the past 40 years, has there ever been a decision that helped employees? IMO, they just keep taking.

Hans did not have the experience or knowledge to lead Verizon - smoke and mirrors and everyone else pays the price. Sampath is not the right leader either. Stratton is the best fit to turn the company and stock around. Only met him... — read more 

We were told today that if they don't get enough volunteers for strike relief that management will do a mandatory selection. How is it that they can tell non-union employees that they have to travel and work outside of their home state and cross... — read more 

Retiree here. Just got my medical bill. It’s doubling. Where due I sign up to work the strike to pay for it??? Just asking

The chatter is escalating. Is there actually something to it, or is it just based on reasonable expectations?

#SameAsItEverWas

So the meeting today in Bedminster was with many managers and other higher ups. The layoff rumors appear to be true, if anything this may just be like some other past RIFs. You get noticed then you have "X" amount of time to check for another... — read more 

What steps can the new CEO take to stop losing subscribers? What can be done to reverse something that's been going on for a while?

This is AT&T’s “2020 Vision” but 10 years later, and the reduction goal being 25% instead of 1/3 of the workforce. I don’t know if there will be the COURTESY of another VSP but the HCL selloff was just a slap in the face. You had people with 30 years... — read more 

To get people to quit at first, then fire the rest that don’t follow the rules.

I’m among those who expected nothing less from the new CEO, but cuts of 6% or more are a truly depressing number.

If the new CEO decides to actually get rid of the real fat, and we all know there’s plenty of it here, that’ll be one move I’ll applaud. You know exactly who I’m talking about, the unnecessary layers of management, the slackers who do nothing but... — read more 

I’m hearing rumors the first thing the new ceo did was to see about a contract extension.But not in way most would like .Sounds like in exchange for some kinda cap on medical the union would agree to the movement of work force needed to bring the... — read more 

We are asked to volunteer for different locations or functions but they do not ask you to volunteer as most managers are forced you do not have a choice.The only ones who have a choice are contractor like companies and such

Heard that’s the path forward, and it makes sense. Combine operations, leadership. Cut many many many many heads. Sure, it will rough for a while, but it’s all about the immediate savings. No one cares about 3 years from now, only the next qtr and... — read more 

RIF coming soon and notifications will be on 10/23. Believe it will be 6% across the company and all departments will be impacted. Thanks for the usual early Christmas present, Verizon.

Looks like the original post from yesterday was removed. Interesting article about the bad investments and Han’s sudden departure. https://www.lightreading.com/business-transformation/there-is-something-fishy-about-the-verizon-ceo-swap-out

Just saying, human nature.

Anyone has a side line of work, a business??? How do you manage to do it? Is it even possible given the amount of work we have? Any advice?

Curious how much my leadership makes. What is typical base and STI/LTI?

Big layoffs across the board. The DEI hires from FCC OBAMA are coming. They are still employed at FYBR!

The day after the announcement of a new CEO. Lots of open jobs postings disappeared from the jobs board. This trend always precedes RIFs.
