Case Study: Verizon Wireless

The generation of talking face-to-face is slowly fading away, and the technology era is going to keep on growing. One of the most widely used technology services known today is the cellular phone industry. According to the Pew Research Center’s website, 90% of American adults own a cell phone. Of that 90%, the smartphone ownership is at 64% (2013). Verizon Wireless, along with the other major carriers, T-Mobile, Sprint, and AT&T, have taken this data and comprised a growing industry where competition arises from all angles. These companies have battled one another on pricing, plans, and customer service for many years in order to stay on top. Unfortunately, these are major factors in whether or not a customer will choose the particular company over another.

Verizon Wireless is known for their famous slogan, “Can you hear me now?” The National Security Agency (NSA) took the meaning to the slogan “Can you hear me now?” to a differently level. One may speculate that the NSA has brought a new meaning to the slogan putting Verizon in the spotlight of an ethical dilemma. Verizon Wireless was founded April 4, 2000 and not long after, they were considered the largest mobile network companies in the United Stated.

Thank you for allowing Verizon Wireless the opportunity to respond to Ms. Kettle’s complaint. In her complaint, Ms. Kettle states she signed a contract with Verizon Wireless on July 22, 2017. A few days later she received notification via text message that her account was placed on paperless billing. Therefore, she did not receive her first invoice until August 28, 2017.

A lot is hinged on good training and development of the staff that are used to develop, make, maintain and represent a product or service that will be sold to a consumer. This industry leader claims the # 1 ranking in Fortune magazine as the “World’s Most Admired Company” within the communication’s industry (Verizon, 2013). Verizon probably has what is considered to be a competitive advantage which speaks to the training methods used to help a business grow and improve by providing employees with the knowledge and skills they need in order to achieve success (Noe, 2010).

I represent Verizon and Sedgwick in the above-referenced matter. We have received the proposed stipulation that you submitted. My client is willing to accept the compromised SLU awards as you proposed. However, they have asked me to redraft the stipulation and it is attached herewith. It covers all the terms and conditions as agreed by all parties. I have added language indicated that there is no permanency to the neck and that the average weekly wage has been made permanent.

This is in response to the above-referenced complaint filed by Ms. Lisa Wadsworth, received by Verizon Wireless on March 6, 2017. Ms. Wadsworth reports her daughter visited an agent location to purchase a new phone thinking it was a direct Verizon Store. She purchased a new iPhone 6 and agreed to a device payment plan. However, the representative did not explain to her that she would also have to pay off remaining amount for her existing device payment plan. It was not until she received her next invoice that she realized she was billed for three device payment plans.

Today’s corporations are highly advanced in communication, operations, and productions. The need for highly educated people is in great demand for both white and blue collar workers. With the continuing evolution of technology, companies will need to train and educate their employees to upgrade their level of knowledge. This is being accomplished through company training or

Verizon is a major telecommunication provider in the United States. The company is the market leader, with $110 billion revenue and $2.4 billion in profit (MSN Moneycentral, 2012). Verizon has steady revenue streams that are largely based on a subscription model. It has several business segments, including wireless (63.3% of revenues) and wireline (36.7%) (2011 Verizon Annual Report). Most of this report will therefore focus on the wireless business, not only because this is the largest business that the company operates but because it is a rapidly growing and evolving business as well, a function of the rapid pace of smartphone adoption in America.

Through this idea of “growth” and collaboration with other industries to provide optimal service, Verizon has expanded its products and services in the following areas:

Verizon Communications formed by the merger of two big and successful companies, Atlantic Corp. and GTE Corp., is the largest telecommunication company.

The purpose of training and developing within any organizations is to improve the overall effectiveness of goods, product and services, competitiveness, and emphasizes growth in all aspects. It also increases productivity, develop employee turnover, increases financial gain, and lessens the managerial and supervisory positions. Training and developing is essential to obtain but many employers have different perspectives of what training and developing means for its organization. Verizon is one of the leaders in innovative wireless communication and in delivering broadband to businesses, mass market, wholesale, government, and it services over 80 million customers across the world.
