As someone in EMEA in professional services (cyber security consulting) at Verizon, we're hearing a lot regarding the potential for certain business units to be sold off to BT to boost their capabilities. What you have you guys heard? In EMEA it was looking like a collective dismissal first, but now it's looking more and more likely that a sell off will take place instead.

@f8 and what does than mean in practice? How does that impact the team then?
@bm It will be a JV
BT numbers are very negative and its debt it's huge. Based on https://www.ajbell.co.uk/news/articles/press-bt-revives-talks-over-global-unit-partnership-or-sale-sky it seems that it's actually the opposite way: BT is considering to offload business units to Verizon.
It's always close to being announced but then gets delayed as BT don't think they're getting a good deal
