Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

Hiring

Is anyone seeing/ hearing of positions being backfilled with contractors yet? I was assuming that will not pick up until the new fiscal year, But have heard of some area's already in motion.

Some jobs have been posted, but people can't be hired until after 6 months.

Yep, my position was backfilled with a internal employee about a month later, they are just cheaper.

This is their plan, Get people off the books only to rehire at a more expensive rate minus benefits cost.
