Please don't rip my head off for this post. I have read the act and the "single site/location" of 500 or more employees confuses me. Im not a damn lawyer. I'm in a state that falls under the Federal guidelines of 60 days. Any wisdom if Vz will have... — read more

Our new CEO is being paid a $1.5M annual salary, with up to $50M in performance incentives. That’s equivalent to 500+ employees making $100K. It’s hard to listen to Joe Russo talk about surgical cost reductions when our CEO is being paid an annual... — read more

With layoffs looming and articles all over the news. Employee morale at its lowest but our VP , Jarrett - wants a plan to fix a metric. No one is addressing the stress and fear that our people are feeling. What a low person

What percentage of management is that? How many managers does Verizon have total? This is just an awful kick in the pants.

Am I the only one who only thought "okay" when reading the news? This has been dragged out for so long that I'm now numb and I don't even care anymore. If they want to get rid of me, so be it. It's not like those staying behind will be in a much... — read more 

Love the title Pay for poor leadership decision https://www.dailymail.co.uk/yourmoney/article-15288451/amp/verizon-job-cuts-customer-losses.html

There goes the hope that we were just exaggerating, right out the window. I think my blood pressure just spiked.

Does anyone here actually know how they got the 15K number? Was it formula based on Pay, Insurance, WFH? Was it just spread across the whole business? Was it mainly performance based? Someone here surely knows this?

So 15k is the number. Which is still short of the 20%. So most likely round 2 will be after January. Those lists were already made as most people suspected. If anyone has actual details on how the layoff procedure works from prior experience, please... — read more 

Pay attention to how your manager is acting from now on. If he or she starts avoiding you or being excessively nice all of a sudden, you know what's coming.

Verizon shares rose about 1.7% on the news. Thousands upon thousands of people are about to lose their livelihoods, and investors are rubbing their greedy little hands together, rejoicing at the news. Really tells you something about the state of... — read more

CNBC just reported (per WSJ) that Verizon is expected to layoff 15,000 employees next week, making it its biggest layoff ever. It’s coming. Sigh.

What a waste already. Still no concrete details because they are still trying to figure it all out.

Love that he kept the meeting and is actually addressing the issues (well, sort of). Still, much better than all the "leaders" who are simply hiding and too chicken to talk to their employees (like Kyle or Shankar)

Is the layoff applicable to full time only or contractors are going to be impacted as well? Can organizations sacrifice contractors to meet the 15~20% target and reduce Opex pressure? My organization is loaded with contractors with only a handful of... — read more

Moving HQ to TX, tax incentives

Both of them are hated by people within their own org and people outside of their org.: Somehow these two continue to survive.. what’s their secret?

India folks, what's the latest news? I'm hearing 1500 job cuts across portfolios.

RIFed US workers before H1B visa holders? Shouldn't the H1B workers be RIFed before a US citizen?

Rumored 750 cuts.

So I heard that the VBG sales Europe all hands call just happened… apparently was a 10 webinar speech… for 2026 go to market strategy. It sounds to be a bloodbath for VBG in Europe.

Verizon retaining employees with H-1B visa status versus retaining US citizens. What gives? What is the US employment law statue?

I hope all this is true, send me some cash and let me never work here again. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Joe is hosting a q&a tomorrow. Who thinks there will be real insight or valuable info shared?

The impending layoffs are about the same thing as it's always been about. Prioritizing PROFITS over people! This company is by no means struggling. Free cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $15.8 BILLION, an increase from $14.5... — read more
