With everything I bring to the table, I’d say I deserve at least $10,000 more. At least. Who else feels this way? How much more should you realistically be making?

There are so many smarter, better, more financially sound and elegant ways to sort out to the satisfaction of both sides the RTO and the wish by leadership to get rid of whichever number of employees. But no, it has to be a prolonged time and energy... — read more

We have a guy on the team who’s a complete dead weight. He’s mastered the art of pretending to be busy while dodging real tasks and leaving the rest of us to pick up the slack. Every time layoffs come around, I cross my fingers, but nope, he’s still... — read more

For those that were part of the first group I have a couple of questions: what rate was your vacation payout taxed? What rate was your VSP taxed?

All the tier one vendors having margins like crazy and making subcontractors life way more than slavery.

Starting Jan 6. Will VZ follow?

Starting to hear bits and pieces of reorg or rifs. Anyone else?

Elections have consequences C-Suite and I am sure there are many former and current employees with more than a few abuse tales to share with the FCC. This is going to get interesting.

Does anyone know if verizon updates it monthly or quarterly ?

For me it's layoffs-related stress, toxic office politics and backstabbing.
