The layoffs, the largest ever for the wireless carrier and impacting about 15% of its workforce, are set to take place in the next week.
The cuts are aimed at its non-union management ranks and will affect more than 20% of that workforce, the source said. Verizon also plans to transition around 180 corporate-owned retail stores into franchised operations, the source added
St Louis will become agent stores.
@a4 your gonna be surprised next week
Anyone know about impacts to BGCO?
@b8 because our world is driven my a singular AI force that can read any data anywhere and create an output.
Have you never heard anyone say AI blackbox warning? We don’t know how it works it just works.
These media companies don’t write news anymore hence why everyone calls it fake news.
Calculated leak. How else.would they have those details.
Soooo how does this get to the news before it even happens? We’re already constantly waiting for the “organizational announcement” calendar invite with news. And before the holidays? Wtf
Managers just mean non union employees fyi
yes, best buy corp employees are also being impacted
@a4 you are to dense to understand percentages. Verizon had tons more employees in 2015. It’s not fake news it’s a bigger percentage cut this time.
does this effect mgrs at Best Buy stores also?
The 2015 layoff was over 17k so fake news unless it exceeds that number.
Yes just saw on Wall Street journal as well. Largest layoff to date!
