Topics regarding layoffs at Verizon Communications Inc.

First off I'm not a union supporter BUT.....

The union is correct in one major point, Verizon doesn't give a crap about their employees. As a spouse who's back at home trying to keep the home front running all the while the EWA's are out working long hours, trying to do the best then can, and... — read more

All union and EWA employees lack intelligence.

Union employees say the union is great! We are all brothers in the brotherhood! Solidarity! EWA employees think if I see my EWA duty through maybe I will keep my job, or maybe I will be rewarded or have a higher value than others because I let myself... — read more

Many problems with the Verizon call centers.

Wait times are half an hour or more. Many customers are not being serviced correctly. Recording ask customers to be patient due to a strike. Replacements are overly apologizing. They have no clue how to handle the customer. This is a sad situation.
