As Verizon launches its Community Disaster Resilience Initiative, complete with hashtags on equity, access, and innovation, one can’t help but notice the irony. This is the same company that has quietly sidelined experienced professionals, replaced... — read more 

It is amazing that both the union and the company have not said 1 thing about the extension negotiations. I ask my union reps about it and they just shrug your shoulders and walk away. Also, the company has not said anything about it. Are they... — read more 

It’s fascinating to watch how the definition of “raising the bar” has evolved. In this open letter, Verizon’s Consumer CEO outlines a vision of seamless onboarding, 24/7 rep access, AI assistants, and “Customer Champions.” On paper, it reads like a... — read more 

Any regrets?

Title pretty much says it. Let's cut cost and get the managers off the books with less then 10 employees. All they do is approve time sheets and remind you about classes. Some only have five employees.

I hate to say it but GN&T will be in the office 3 days/week beginning in September. Announcement to be made prior to 7/4 holiday. Our VP wants us to make a good faith effort to comply but noted he will not be looking at attendance reports.

Something many of us are noticing—but not enough people are talking about—is the quiet but clear shift of certain Verizon functions from the U.S. to Ireland. Over the past year, Verizon has reduced thousands of domestic roles—many in Global Supply... — read more 

You say leadership is about “putting the needs of the team ahead of your own.” But under your tenure, Verizon has: • Cut over 10,000 jobs through layoffs, outsourcing, and attrition since 2018, while you pocketed over $65 million in total... — read more

Will Verizon keep Frontier management?

Since this is a layoff site, does anyone know when or if another is likely to come to wireless ops? Seems like it should happen soon, things dont seem right. We need to hire but we aren't, there is more work than we can manage. So it seems like the... — read more 

CON ARTIST(S) C-SUITE

Management here is all about who you know. I’ve seen high-performers ignored for promotions while less competent ‘favorites’ move up quickly. Then cue the shocked Pikachu face when they don’t work out and everything gets messed up beyond repair... — read more 

Anyone receive an invite via Vz company email?! I think it’s highly unusual. So who at Vz is giving out my company email address to an external party?! Isn’t this a violation of proprietary information being disclosed? On the upside, maybe they know... — read more 

The toxic work environment where you are solicited to go on trips with management if you are hourly, threated by management to be reported to ICE.Their PULSE surveys ask if you work with friends, friends who BETRAY you

My VP mentioned a return to office decision coming soon, but didn’t give any details. Have you heard anything on this? I’m curious if they will go to 3, 4, or 5 days a week in-office.

On paper, the new plan covers the basics: layered offerings, incentive bundling, extended retention hooks. It resembles the architecture of a turnaround. But strategy isn’t judged by its structure—it’s judged by behavior. When internal adoption... — read more 

Need to cut CWA numbers to pay for Frontier Communications! Let the games begin!

We all know all the negatives, but is there anything that you consider a genuine perk?

Yesterday they called me in the conference room. To my surprise my manager told me it's over. Then they had HR talk to me to review my payoffs. Please pray for me as am looking for work.

He used to be a lot more visible. Now rarely seen or heard from

Serious replies only, please I've been at the company a while and I've never had a "pre-screen" call with a recruiter for an internal posting until now. Anyone know what one should expect and/or prepare? I'm thinking maybe it's to validate that the... — read more 

What’s the play? • They’re trading old bonds for new ones maturing in 2037. • Why? To push out debt, lock in lower rates, and avoid a future cash crunch. • It’s a quiet move to protect their credit rating and buy time while 5G revenue lags. This... — read more 

Verizon’s latest Leadership Connect event served up a polished message of “bold ideas” and “pioneering work” — but for those of us on the ground, the contrast couldn’t be clearer. While executive teams celebrate strategy sessions and photo ops, the... — read more

That’s a good sign. Last time they took forever to make an announcement and it was because they were working hard getting a good contract.

Will it be this month or are we rolling till October "home for the holidays"? This company is taking on huge debt from buying frontier. So I'd imagine a large cut is coming to help offset it. What's everyone's thoughts on this one?

While Verizon drags its feet in union negotiations, claiming “financial constraints” and “organizational optimization,” here’s what’s really happening: They’re not cutting costs — they’re cutting competence. The layoffs don’t target inefficiency —... — read more
