From all accounts (Noguchi Washington Post, 4/24/2005), Verizon is a stronger and more stable company with $71.3 billion versus $13.8 in 2004 revenue, 210,000 employees versus 42,000. Qwest carries more than $17 billion in debt and it plans to reduce its costs by $15 billion by cutting 15,000 employees after the merger while Verizon plans to cut about 7,000 jobs.

Most of the time job candidates do not have an updated resume when they need one.

1. Employees are resource-oriented. Entrepreneurs are opportunity-oriented. A person with an employee mindset might say, “I would start my own business but I don’t have the money.” Or “I’d love to invest in that piece of real estate, but I don’t have the down payment.” In both of these examples the person focuses on their resources–in this case their lack of money, rather than the opportunity.In a similar situation, a person with an ent

The question is: Can Qwest Communications break all rules of successful mergers and still survive? The driving force behind Qwest’s acquisition is the 60-70 percent of MCI shareholders, which consists of hedge fund investors (a group of super rich investors) with a strong interest in quick return on their investments. Since MCI just came out of bankruptcy, the bank creditors are not going to benefit with Qwest’s plan to cut 17,000 jobs and it is going to be very difficult to keep key employees. When key employees depart for other companies it is highly likely that customer service will suffer leading many of them to change their service providers. It is also feasible that Verizon could use its financial resources to build new networks to attract MCI’s corporate customers located in the Northeast region where it does business.
