Why I hate AT&T

They put you in a ridiculous situation and then gas light you into thinking you are the issue, that you aren’t working hard enough or you are thinking wrong etc. total cult.

Dear Union Employees

You have the full support of lower-level AT&T management. As with many of my peer management colleagues, I hope you get what you deserve. Stinky, coupled with corporate America's avarice, will try to take as much as they can. Stick to what you... — read more

Relo is just another layoff strategy

I mean, who would accept to relocate for a company which is badly managed, chaotic, and where leadership does nothing to generate revenue but excels at cuts just so stock value isn’t shot down? You relocate, pay for it, move your whole family, sc--w... — read more
