I don't think this page is very accurate. VES was formed from Verizon Business. NYNEX was one of the many precursors to Verizon itself. I'm also fairly certain working here that the HQ is in Ashburn, not Arlington...
Hello, I'm an employee of Verizon, and am here to suggest a new draft of this article. As you can see, the article is currently very short, so I've drafted an expanded version that includes details about the division's offerings and other business information.
Because of my financial conflict of interest, I won't replace the current article with my draft. Instead, I've uploaded my suggested version of this article as a userpage. My new draft consists of two new main sections.
I believe this draft represents a much better version of the article that what is currently here, and have done my best to represent Verizon Enterprise Solutions in a neutral, encyclopedic way. I will mention that discussing products without using technical terms can be tricky, so I'm more than open to feedback from editors on this if they have specific questions or concerns. Likewise, if the draft looks okay, I'd appreciate it if an editor could move it over to replace the current article.
Thanks so much, VZBob ( talk) 20:21, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

Verizon Enterprise Solutions → Verizon Business – Verizon Enterprise Solutions is now called "Verizon Business". The name change was noted in The Wall Street Journal, Reuters, ZDNet, and Multichannel News, and others. While these sources do not say "Verizon Enterprise Solutions changed its name to Verizon Business", they do outline how Verizon Business is the new name of the group servicing business, enterprises, and governments. Currently, "Verizon Business" redirects to Verizon Communications. I work for Verizon and have a conflict of interest. Following in the footsteps of my former colleague, VZBob, I won't be making direct edits to articles where I have a conflict. VZEric ( talk) 15:46, 1 July 2019 (UTC)

Verizon's logo in the infobox was replaced with a fake logo. Can editors please revert this edit?

Verizon Business has a new CEO, who was appointed over the summer. This Wikipedia article still includes former CEO Tami Erwin in the infobox and article introduction. Would editors please consider replacing Tami Erwin with Sowmyanarayan Sampath [1] under Key people in the infobox?
Additionally, the introduction contains two sentences that follow the succession of Verizon Business leaders up through Erwin. Is that necessary? If so, I suggest it be updated for accuracy and to fix a glaring grammatical error (It says George J. Fischer "is" president while noting "he was replaced".) Here is a suggestion:

Hello editors! On March 3, 2023, Verizon announced a change in our executive team and now this article is outdated in the introduction and in the infobox.
In the infobox, Sowmyanarayan Sampath is listed as CEO. However, Kyle Malady is now the head of Verizon Business. [1]
The introduction includes the sentence "In July 2022, Sowmyanarayan Sampath replaced Tami Erwin as CEO of Verizon Business." Can editors add the following:
