How are people doing on finding new jobs?

I'm not talking about people who just left Verizon last week, but those who were laid off throughout the previous year. Somebody in another thread mentioned that they are still having no luck after a year, and that has me worried. Have others had... — read more

Verizon is a pathetic company to work for....

Verizon is a pathetic company to work for.... almost as bad as Walmart. They made layoffs their bread and butter of their business. That there is a page dedicated to this is a red flag. I know it has its minions who love it and defend it at any cost... — read more

So. STi

I am not sure I heard on the previous calls of how they will deal with STI with the ppl held back for a future date. Does that mean they are guaranteed the 100% and the ones that didn't push get the X% the company announces?

Doomed

Verizon is a failing company. It will be a long slow painful decline. It's amusing to see the dead wood left behind combing through the job board with dreams of getting promoted into a position of a talented performer that took the package. Verizon... — read more

How bad will 2019 get for retail and indirect?

Unfortunately, retail and indirect will feel the wrath in 2019! Stores closing or transitioned to big 6 agents. National retail will be absorbed or outsourced. That means DMs will be reduced and whoever prevails will have more stores. How much of... — read more
