Why is no one talking about how stock together was removed without notice or a heads up. Make sure your paying attention to your 3% raises, ST is gone.

Sometimes it feels like people are rooting for layoffs with the way they keep predicting them. Every other post tries to guess the date, as if saying it enough will make it happen. When something is official, we will hear about it. Until then, maybe... — read more

Anyone have insight to this?

I just talked to TMobile about switching and they were less than what I am paying at Verizon even after the employee discount and they are giving away new phones and they have a 2 year upgrade pipeline. Verizon's network coverage seems to have gone... — read more 

Does anyone have any information on upcoming RIF or VSP? Please share what you know.

This is the "woman" who went MIA when her workforce was being gutted with 15,000 layoffs. Now she is holding up post it notes suggesting that employees should love their employer to make the company successful. Are other employees so delusional... — read more 

I was talking to a friend the other day and he said he always knows layoffs are coming at his company because managers basically go missing for weeks and routine meetings get canceled. Do we have something that? Has anybody noticed any similar or... — read more 

Done and gone

Dan gets a lot of flac for his cutting, but this company is like a terminally ill patient that needs an infestation of tumors removed. At some point he will have the stock at a proper value.

Sit back, relax. We will continue to contract out all the actual work. Do a bit every day, just to stay in shape, everything else will be contracted out.

My direct either has a fetish for Victorian English or they are using weird prompts in AI. I kid you now, it feels like it was written as if he were going to be laid off anyway, It was great! Stupid and great. Though I guarantee he had no clue what... — read more 

After frontier and labor agreement settle, the rif will happen.

They're mostly just tools to push people out. Rarely do they reflect someone’s real performance, or the value in terms of skills, experience, or productivity. And let's be honest, the higherups aren’t exactly brilliant either. Hard to see much of a... — read more 

If anyone has gotten both an AI written review but also gotten more than an “achieving”. Like yeah, you’re great, but still not great enough for me to put thought into my own words.

I was in a call the other day. She starts to ask how we can use ai to make our tools better. Offering suggestions that have already been solved last year. Literally doesn't know anything. Worse is I looked her up and she has no direct reports. I... — read more 

Do people get laid off within the first several months of employment? I desperately need a job, but I don't want to join, stop my search, and end up on the street again within months. Thanks in advance.

Anyone hear anything about negotiations? Today is the last day they have scheduled for any talks.

Dan was right with AI, employees will be replaced. 3 hours ago - Block Inc. announced a 40% workforce reduction to adapt to an AI-driven business model, triggering a 20-24% surge in its stock price.

Forget getting laid off, people will start just leaving on their own if we’re too lazy to write appraisals. Come on, how did they get hired if they can’t pronounce the words AI gave them. And don’t forget that clown last night who was talking all... — read more

Why did I just get $5600 deposited in my checking account? I got paid already months ago from the severance and RSUs. My last day was 12/19.

Can someone with greater knowledge summarize all the sr leaders that were let go and all the reorgs that are happening across so a nobody like me who is barely hanging on with ever increasing workload can somewhat be in the knows please?

I do not see any big changes in the Network org. Most cuts are happening on the consumer and business side. Our network is getting worse and worse.. Network org remains As-Is .. Is there any changes in that area ?

AI WILL REPLACE FCC SWITCH REPORTABLES. Regulated AI.

No end of month RIF notifications. So stop spreading unfounded rumors. Listened to the Joe Russo leadership call and no big news on layoffs. Stop spreading unfounded rumors.

I am an IC... So, I got a Mgr, AD, Dir, Sr Dir, and AVP above me - all of this before we even start to think about Band 4. They are just managing, no real work is bein done by them. they 'align th8ngs', collect status, communicate, ensure buy-in... — read more 

I’m shocked how lethargic and resigned so many colleagues are to being laid off…once Verizon was a company to be proud of but right now? It’s a sad situation that employees feel so disconnected from the company

Is this an eventually going to become OPOO 2.0?

I had set up a 6% 401k contribution on my bonus payout to get the full company match. However, the 2025 STI payout paycheck doesn't have any 401k deduction. Therefore, I am guessing there won't be a company match. Anyone else seeing this? I have... — read more

Is today RIF notification day?

The last payday. $8600-ish in my case. Since I "volunteered" for the RIF, I must say, VZ has done everything promised. Since I was retiring anyway, it has been nice to get a sizeable amount of cash out the door! I do hope all affected are doing... — read more 

It should not be this hard. Artificially inflated titles and $$. My AD has 2 directs and my directors has total 7 people including contractors. It’s laughable how much inefficiency these people are adding.

Let’s just list all the rumors we have heard so I will go first heard the they want to get rid of the lump sum in contract also they want to lay off another 14,000 managers last day November.Now go ahead what you hear
