Anyone hear rumors at all about Verizon Connect?

@ay I’m sure you’re aware then that they’ve been sunsetting legacy connect systems/brands in the last year. Not sure where it will stand in the end nor it’s profitability
Connect? wasnt that the sister launch with GO90?
Connect is a real POS draining business.
@aw yes I’m aware as I work for Connect. The North America team still belongs to Verizon.
Connect will be sold off in early Q1 - if not sooner. Employees will transfer to the new company, and then will likely be laid off but will not have a cushy severance like they would have if laid off by Verizon. Leave now!!! None of those people in leadership positions care a single ounce for any of the employees.
Geotab acquired Verizon Connect international. You can Google that as it was a press release on 10/1.
@as very nice and optimistic for employees that work for Connect, thanks a lot. Hope your job exists next year too.
Connect still exists in the US and is profitable. 28 staff RIF'd in Dublin and leaving on 12/31. The rest are planning to leave and others are waiting to be let go. Its a $h1t show and management are deafening with their silence
Bad product that we paid way too much money for. I hope you all land on your feet but I would be blown away if it exists at all next year.
It still exists? I thought connect was gone when the hum push was over
