It really shows how bad things are with the company and how little they care about employees to not do anything for the week that is “about us”. All we got was daily useless emails. Did anyone actually get anything?

We were asked at the last min. To join a sync up call. It was of course a call about the company wide RIFs. Director looked stressed to the max like he had a stroke and the managers performance on the call could only be described as embarrassing... — read more 

What is your age and how long were you with the company? Share area you worked if you want.

Were all of you keyboard warrior bullies mean before you worked at Verizon? Or did the job steal your soul and make you think you have the AUDACITY? Seems like this forum could be a little more supportive…

I'm pretty new here. I am satisfied with pay, considering my previous experience, I can't even ask for anything higher. It would not be realistic. However, I am interested in what someone mentioned that there has been a decrease in pay here from year... — read more 

Hearing from co-workers news will be out tomorrow. Has anyone else heard this?

Funny how if you work hard you are guaranteed to be taken advantage of. Managers will expect you to help everybody else who find some of their tasks too difficult when in reality they are just lazy. Well, I'm done. I've suddenly developed an... — read more 

It is amazing to me how this company has no sensibility to provide employees with conditions so that they can do their job properly. Someone mentioned that every day they have to deal with several iphones that won't activate because this company... — read more 

The 4th QTR ESS Survey is out. So many of my peers share that they are afraid to be honest on these surveys. If you don't think Verizon is a great place to work, stop saying that it is. Use the Comment box to provide examples of the things you... — read more 

With the deployment of IOP task and task tracking you can bet the farm that this tool was 1000% created to track and mange headcount. THIS IS A FACT and every time we have a nation wide conf call and they say it's not being used for that they are... — read more 

If the union actually stands against the mandate, you would have droves of stores signing up. Wouldn't this be in their best interest? Well see Oct. 25th with the negotiations.

I still haven't given notice but I plan to leave very soon. A lot of colleagues have already left. Somehow it seems to me that mass exodus didn’t bother them at first. Moreover, I think it worked in their favor. However, now it seems to me... — read more 

I have been reading so many posts by the Verizon sales people. It sounds like you have the worst job on the planet. You lose money for bad customer surveys and have to cold call customers to sell them a phone when you got customers in que at the... — read more 

I encourage everyone to read up on this subject. The main theme running through the whole process is that it's up to the employer to determine the following: Do they recognize your religion as valid. Is the head of you religion for or... — read more 

90 minute wait times and we are asked to make calls while customers stand around the store in our que. Nothing like calling customers from another part of the country to find out why they abandoned their cart order. As the customers signed into our... — read more

Job Application Question - Have you been fully vaccinated against Covid-19? (2 weeks after Pfizer / Moderna or after 1 shot of J&J) Can't say we saw this coming

Northeast mass exodus of retail upper management, has anyone noticed?! We are all supposed to keep smiling and push along while we watch everything implode…

Almost all my colleagues have something on the side. I think a lot of employees have side jobs, (only they don't use their company computer for side jobs). What will never be clear to me is why do employers feel so threatened by side gigs?... — read more 

Of course the retail vax mandate isn’t going into effect until after the holiday season. Verizon can’t afford a massive push back and refusal from employees when they can barely staff stores as is. Its obvious the end goal is work us to death during... — read more 

Regardless of how you feel about the vax, everyone needs to take a stand together on this topic. If the unvaxed are placed on unpaid leave or terminated, the vaxed will have to pick up the extra workload. Do you think they will actually give you a... — read more 

I remember many holiday seasons in this company, but it seems to me that this year's pre-holiday season is the gloomiest. It seems even less optimistic than last year? I plan to give notice soon.

Anyone have any insight as to what the “accommodations” would be for religious or medical exemption? I suspect that it will be WFH customer service.. will they decrease pay if that’s the case? Does indirect have to get the Jab?!

Our door greeter makes around $20-$23/hour. He’s awesome btw. Doesn’t let ANY bs into the store unless it’s a new line or someone trying to spend $$ But some of our reps that have been working for Verizon for a couple years are a little salty... — read more 

What are the follow-up forms and what are they requiring once we make our initial selection and hit submit?

If you work in a retail store you already know how help is stretched thin. Reps and managers have been leaving and new hires are slim pickens to fill those slots. What kind of provisions is Verizon making for the next few months for those of us who... — read more 

I know at least a few people if not more are quitting soon at hour store due to hours, team commission, rude customers all day etc. Anyone else seeing this? If this happens everywhere it is really going to hurt Verizon right before holiday season

Work at home employees are being tracked. If you have been doing a side job and double dipping, the powers to be are probably already aware. It's that time of year again and you will not receive a RIF package. Why would they start looking at you?... — read more

Verizon and Hans won the pivot award for best covid response... (We shifted store reps to home based jobs) now we should win the Razzie award for worst response to get the stores back up to speed.

They have been very careful with their language. Your job MAY be in jeopardy or your job COULD be in jeopardy. Verizon has not and will not say they WILL TERMINATE you. I wonder why that is? Let's see it in black and white Verizon.

With everything coming down the pipe in all the departments. Staffing cuts to insane lows, additional work load, department consolidations, and additional spending cuts. Anyone feel that Verizon is positioning the company to sell? The current... — read more 

Is Verizon going to do anything about increasing pay? With the yearly pay increases of 2 to 3%, we're losing purchasing power each year. Also, who wants to bet that "corporate" and "network" gets another 100%+ STI while all other workers get less... — read more
