sauce, and moar,
The optics look awful for Verizon Communications if the Wall Street Journal's report is accurate: the carrier is preparing for its largest job cuts ever just days before millions of Americans hit the road for Thanksgiving.
WSJ says Verizon is planning to cut 15,000 jobs. If that figure is correct, Bloomberg's latest data suggests this would be about 15% of its roughly 100,000-person workforce. WSJ notes this would be the largest workforce reduction on record for the carrier.
Most of the job reductions will come from direct layoffs, and the carrier will shift 200 corporate stores into franchise operations, removing those employees from Verizon's payroll.
For three consecutive quarters, Verizon has been losing postpaid phone subscribers, putting pressure on leadership to stop the hemorrhaging.
Earlier, Verizon chairman Mark Bertolini told CNBC's Becky Quick on "Squawk Box" that the company needs to "do something different" as it undergoes its leadership change.
Bertolini said the carrier's new CEO, ex-PayPal boss Dan Schulman, is working on a turnaround plan after share losses under former CEO Hans Vestberg.
"Verizon has gone from number one in Market cap, bond ratings and Market share to number three. And the network isn't as differentiated as it used to be, in large part because everybody's been spending money to put these 5G networks in place," Bertolini said. "So losing 30% share over the last eight years is an issue, and we have to do something different."
Bertolini added that Schulman will reveal his plan to turn the company around "sooner rather than later."
Schulman recently pledged to "aggressively transform our culture, our cost structure, and the financial profile of Verizon in order to put our customers first, compete effectively, and deliver sustainable returns for our shareholders."
Shares of Verizon in New York are up only 4% year to date, after being halved since peaking around $60 a share in late 2021.

Verizon Set To Axe 15,000 Jobs Right Before Thanksgiving Holiday

Q Research General #21624: ITT CAPTCHA!!!! Edition
Ray Dalio steps down from Bridgewater Associates, cedes voting rights
Tue, October 4, 2022 at 9:44 AM?2 min read
Billionaire investor Ray Dalio is relinquishing control of the firm he founded, Bridgewater Associates, the largest hedge fund in the world with $150 billion in assets under management.
"This was the natural progression of events; as soon as we were ready, we went ahead," Dalio said in an interview with Bloomberg, which was first to report the news on Tuesday before Dalio confirmed in a series of tweets. "I didn't want to hold on until I died."
The 73-year-old financier is stepping away from his title as co-Chief Investment Officer, a role in which he served since 1985, and has ceded his voting rights to the board of directors on Sept. 30 in the final step of the firm's succession plan.
Dalio said he will continue to mentor Co-Chief Investment Officers Bob Prince and Greg Jensen, as well as the investment committee. He will also serve as a member of the operating board and as a senior investor.
Bridgewater's executive team now comprises Prince and Jensen, along with co-CEOs Nir Bar Dea and Mark Bertolini. Dalio said they would be supported by "a large team of people who have great character, great capabilities, and great devotion to Bridgewater," and "a great board that will oversee them to make sure they do a great job."
"Hopefully until I die, I will continue to be a mentor, an investor, and board member at Bridgewater, because I and they love doing those things together," Dalio added. "That's a dream come true."
Dalio founded Bridgewater in 1975. Since then, he has served as Bridgewater's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Investment Officer, and Chairman before stepping away from the CEO role in 2017 and as Chairman at the end of 2021. He had initiated a transition plan as far back as 2010 but stayed in the role until now as he looked for successors.
Bridgewater Associates did not immediately respond to a request for further comment.
