Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

I think my time here is up

My workload’s dropped off a cliff over the last few months, and while I can’t say for certain, it really feels like my manager’s been avoiding me. I’m almost sure my name’s on the list. Weirdly enough, that realization’s made things easier to handle. Now that I know what’s probably coming, I feel calmer and I’ve already started looking for my next move.

Same happened to me last year. Started looking for a new job, and eventually got a fat severance and had a new job lined up. Efff Verizon.

@a7 Sweet spot indeed. Banked every penny of the 64 week severance last year.

I hope you started to look around for other jobs. Getting a nice severance + landing a new job is the sweet spot. Good luck
