Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

Location strategy questions

Anyone know how location strategy plays into union employees/locations? I get it that their current contract has them working from home, but with management being required to come back, it would stand to reason the union would follow. And the union employees locations are not part of the location announcements we've heard.

Also wondered how the Frontier acquisition fits into location strategy. Seems like some major disconnects

No need for sarcastic or ignorant comments toward any side of the playing field, please.

Company = Union
(it's kinda obvious when the company lets the union flex their supposed muscle, as long as the union capitulates immediately before unemployment kicks in, IMO of course)

If they’re d-mb enough to walk when the company tells the union to tell them to walk do you think they’ll picket it their own houses? With their families have to stay inside so they don’t cross the line? Of course that’s absurd, but what isn’t with regards to this whole situation?

If they’re d-mb enough to walk when the company tells the union to tell them to walk this time, they’re looking at six months easy.

The reality is that union or nonunion the strategy is completely lost at Verizon.The only strategy that the very high ups care is how much money they pocket now .Verizon is on a crash course to bankruptcy could be many many years but headed there .The fact is that when a company believes it cost too much money to spend on gaining and maintaining a customer so we should just not have customers this way we save money it’s the end of the game.The corporate people running the show do not care about 3 years from now by then most have their golden parachute.So hold on save up and plan for the worst

OP, was that you working here in '89 asking an almost equally silly notion thinking that, now that you're paying, it'll equalize any day now (or, maybe, 2016) ?
Dupe, learn from your own history girlfriend.

Frontier has plenty of union folks that were former Verizon and AT&T before being sold to them. Union isn't impacted by the announcement as the location strategy only applies to management.
