Haven’t heard from our EVP, SVP, VP in months. Everyone is quiet, big storm brewing or are they finally understanding they add zero value?

Sorry Marketing team but the half-time commercial was Terrible! Bring back Lilly who is recognizable and liked. Someone needs to be laid off for that 30 secs I’ll never get back.

Reposting this article here for any that missed it. Chris Rufo has exposed the corruption at the heart of these movements. Check out his book, it's truly enlightening. He covered AT&T 2.5 years ago in this post:... — read more 

What is everyone spending their bonus on? I purchased a new vehicle, at least I will have a paid for ride when I get laid off.

Anybody have any estimates of reduction in US HC YTD? I can't figure out a consistent method of a delta given the various categories of employment and location.

Best wishes to the April alumni class. Good luck in all your future endeavors.

I've worked for several major companies during my 20+ year long career, and I can tell you with certainty that none of them had this much of a disconnect between the people in the field who do the truly important work and those at the top. There... — read more

AT&T’s leadership has a warped, misguided, and clearly dysfunctional view of how employees productivity and value in regard to where they work. Someone who is a productive employee will be productive regardless of where their office location is... — read more 

The bargaining committee should immediately call for work to rule. No overtime! No loaners. Dont help contractors. Report AT&T to the CPUC when you are unable to repair POTS because of lack of supply or manager directive. PremTechs, don't help... — read more 

We have an incompetent do-nothing manager. She recently designated 2 team leads which effectively reduced our team of 11 workers to only 9. They are essentially doing her work for her. In March we were told these team leads would begin counseling... — read more 

AI-powered systems are predicted to replace up to 80% of existing call center and customer service jobs, leading to the elimination of thousands of positions ranging from agents to middle managers.

And do well at ATT regardless of their results. They aren't producers or innovators they are just followers and gladly get on board. Big part of the overall toxic environment at ATT. Imagine a company creating an environment to drive people to quit. — read more

I’m a L2 and saw the report when it first came out. Very limited - just shows if you badged in 3 days a week. No time in office. And if you took 1 PTO day the week was grayed out. For those with access - has that changed? Can they see how long your... — read more 

I was impressed with GM strategy and how they won. With the two biggest unions in att at the same time out on strike the company won’t have a chance. The 3 months working without a contract will be the smartest move.

No "Yesokay".. no fire alarm to get out of the building even after it was over.. really? Understand it was about 15 seconds.. but thought we were under attack. WTF.

To put this in perspective, the company gave a 122% bonus and more than 2% raises for the majority of managers who were in compliance, from last year’s results, 16.8 BILLION in free cash flow. Execs and the c-suite received much more up to the 27... — read more 

AT&T needs to cut this. Most of these college hires don't last a year. They find better opportunities after they get the training. Another loser program that leadership created.

A coworker in ATS who was being relocated (told to move) from Nashville to ATL and had until December to move just got told his position is being eliminated effective 4/15. This company has no loyalty to any of its employees. Why would anyone move... — read more 

CWA West contract expires 4/6. You guys gonna do it or not?

Seems like a big rip off that the company dosen't give us employees a discount on phones. There must be some wiggle room in the deals with Samsun and Apple. Just another kick in the teeth.

Psych! Just kidding. There is nothing to update because they haven’t communicated a single thing to the affected employees in over a month!! There was a commitment by end of Q1. You think they would at least feel obligated to tell their employees... — read more

Who is happy with their job at AT&T?

We recently filled out a "culture survey". Our org has really low moral and everyone is pretty much unhappy. If the results are very low, what does AT&T do about it? What do they do with the managers? I suspect pretty much nothing since the... — read more
