The company manages to find another woke female leader. Just what we needed. Someone who was at Twitter until Elon Musk arrived and then managed to peddle Peloton right into the toilet. This will work out well.
Title changes for Individual contributors at level 6
What will happen to the individual contributor titles at level 6 like Principal Engg ? Anyone knows ?
VGS AMA December 6th
did they say that a group is being riffed and going to Ireland? Will that mean any job can go to Ireland? How big is the Ireland facility? Is it in Dublin? It seemed like people were focused on wanting to work from home instead of the fact that... — read more
B2B is dumping it's trash
It used to be that the cream rises to the top. Those that worked hard and delivered real numbers. Under this regime, the manipulative, low class, sleep your way to the top is what's rising and going to retail. It's amazing how a certain individual... — read more

Is Verizon recommended to join in 2024?
The year 2024 is seeing surpluses in every other Telecom industry. There seem to be some openings in Verizon. Do they allow remote work and is it a good company to join considering the turmoil? What do the existing employees think?
Jacobs vs Verizon Communications
Anyone know anything about this class action lawsuit and what the potential payout may be for participants?
New Employee Titles?
Are on their way?
I hate to see employees fighting amongst each other
That seems to be a recurring theme here. I wish people would realize that Verizon hates all of its employees the same. It's not your coworker's fault your job su-ks, you are underpaid, overworked, and losing your benefits. We should all be focusing... — read more
RTO 2024
When are they gonna mandate everyone to the office? No one is saying if this WFH is gonna stay. I’m in NY and would love to get back into the office.
Bonus funds vesting in December
How is it fair that part of the Verizon team are getting a nice bonus check next month while the rest of us in a different organization are not getting anything ? Congratulations to the ones getting that nice fat check. I wish I was too 😭
30k loan
How true is this? What’s your thoughts ?
Manager Credo
Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get su-ked into engines. Hard work pays off in the future; laziness pays off now. A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking. The sooner you fall behind, the more time you will have to catch... — read more
Verizon Leadership
99% of management give the rest a bad name.
Downvote Brigade
What's up with the downvote brigade on every post? Is it Corporate? Shills? The new and incredibly terrible overseas customer service department? Feel the Dignity, Inclusiveness, and the constantly Virtual Signaling Intranet page.
Verizon to offer $30k loan to all employees. Loan will be forgiven after 3 years and still employed.
If you leave the company or are terminated before 36 months, you will have to pay back the loan with interest at whatever rates are at the time of dismissal. Is this a good deal?
I haven't seen any posts from the HCL crew?
How has the transition been so far?
Can management be converted to union?
I just talked to a guy who’s an engineer with GN&T. He said his group was riffed but they were offered senior tech jobs in the union. The choice is leave or convert their annual salaries over to union, bridge all their time, get union benefits ect …... — read more
11/9 RIFs project impacts in FY24
What will be the fate of the remaining IT team members, such as employees, contractors, and those under SOW, after their entire upper management, including managers, directors, and assistant directors, have been laid off? There appears to be a... — read more
Promos
B2B was told yesterday no Black Friday promos. What a joke!
More layoffs in November
Are rumors true? Will there be even more layoffs this month?
Does 11/9 RIF Meet the WARN 60 Day Notice?
You do the math. 11/9 to 12/29 doesn't equal 60 Days as required by the WARN Act. Maybe a Class Action Lawsuit for Hans for Xmas?
Very poor timing
Gather all your veterans together one day to celebrate and honor their service to our country and lay a bunch of them off the next day. When our director pulled us all together to make the RIF announcement he made sure to mention how the layoffs were... — read more
GTS Gov contracts
Who’s going to support Gov customers now that the people with clearance were laid off. Can contractors do the job on behalf of Verizon?
Verizon Connect layoffs
This division of Verizon continues down an uncontrollable spiral. Executives are leaving, sales leaders getting booted, and continuous layoffs across all segments. Get your resumes ready and do not trust the people in charge.
Layoffs in Seattle
Just got taken out behind the shed, 12+ years moved here for this job. Worked my way up into network from being consistent top 1% of sales nationally pre-pandemic. Severance offer is absolutely pitiful. Will be homeless in 9mo, medical runs out at... — read more
What is GN&T please?
Thanks in advance
GN&T and GTS were hit
GN&T was hit hard, but GTS riff’ed some very important people that have dedicated decades to Verizon. There will be massive knowledge walking out the door. I feel for everyone. So sorry
What's happening?
Any news?
GN&T Northeast Riffs 11/9/2023

Best of luck to everyone affected today.
Stop worrying
Whether layoffs happen tomorrow or not doesn't really matter. A threat of more cuts will remain. Nothing will change. This is our new normal. If you value your mental health, learn to live with it. Prepare the best you can just in case and then go... — read more
Will there really be RIFs tomorrow?
If so, what org/orgs? How many?
Please let it be true
I am now hoping for layoffs. And I'm praying that I'm among those who are affected. I want out and I'll be overjoyed if I'm laid off. I'll take a month to start looking for a new job just to relax and improve my mental health after over a decade of... — read more
RIFs coming 11/9
This Friday, 11/9 will be the date of execution. This was confirmed in our high level. Good luck everyone.
The Joe Show Blows!
What a waste of 60 minutes... nothing of substantial value. The top 3 questions dealing with cost of living and contractor replacement were not even looked at. The rolly-polly show goes on and on. Useless... look at the questions, you leaders. There... — read more
