I keep seeing these comments blaming being laid off and the sorry state of the company on DEI. That wasn’t the case in my experience. In my case there were good ol’ boy networks that took care of their own. You didn’t need to be white or to be a... — read more

It seemed like our VP got to keep their good old boy system while really talented people got asked to leave. I think it’s always been that way but it was hard to hide this time with people let go who were dependable.

COULD HAVE OPEREATED IN TEXAS BUT JOBS GIVEN TO CWA EAST COAST PUKE WAY BACK IN 2000. VERIZON LOST 4.5 TO 5 BILLION ON OATH. CEO WALKS FREE. LOCK SOME OF THESE FU----S UP.

So some took it as overdue discipline, others as the familiar cost of order when order is measured mainly in expense… and many simply waited for the next email to tell them what their years would count for…

As a stranger things fan it’s awesome to work in the COs and see all the equipment from the EIGHTIES still in place and running. I can imagine how cool it must have been to be alive in that time and how shiny that SLC-96/DMS-100 was back then. As an... — read more

Is anyone else tired of only being motivated by the threat of losing their job? It is absolutely draining to work this way. There is nothing positive left, just constant pressure and anxiety. We deserve better than this.

Be honest , how much say did you all have in the recent RIFs? Or did we really get selected by a program based on years worked and salary ? I say the managers had a say because my manager fired 3 black people. What are the odds ??
