All Verizon Wireless Workers Deserve a Pay Raise!

As retail, call center and technical workers, we are proud of the work we do for Verizon Wireless.

Thanks to our hard work, Verizon Wireless recently posted a stunning $4.22 billion in profits!

A few weeks ago, Verizon Wireless gave a raise to many new hires at call centers across the company by increasing the minimum pay by $2000. Although this is a good first step, this increase won't affect most of us.

Many of us who have been with the company for years have seen little to no increases in pay or recognition that it is our dedication and talent that has contributed to the company's success.

For me, now that I have a new born son at home, getting a fair wage is more important than ever. Not only have we earned it, but an increase in pay would put all of us in a better position to care for ourselves and our loved ones.

We started this online petition to respectfully ask that management give the same raise to all its employees, not just new-hires and those working for minimum pay. If enough of our co-workers sign, we believe Verizon Wireless will listen. Then, we’ll all do better taking home a little bit more.

As our hard work is bringing in these gigantic profits, we say that we deserve a raise, too!
