BAT has basically been dissolved

I’m on an engineering team for tenants and have many friends in BAT. Most are all gone for silly reasons, the rest are suspended. It’s just sad that the company has went after people this way.

April cuts—- any updates?

I seen the surplus for last Thursday was delayed until Friday— did anyone hear or get anything? This one seems to not have happened or is incredibly tight lipped.

This place needs new management

All AT&T management does is lie, gaslight, and lead people on. There isn't an honest person among them. Maybe they were at one point but this company makes you into a liar if you want to advance up the ladder, so by the time they make it, they fit... — read more

Serious Question

Why is it that anything ATT touches turns to sh!t? DirectTv is now pure garbage.

Vacation Paid after Retirement

I am an exempt manager and I get 28 days PTO per year. By July, I will have earned only 17 of those days, leaving 11 days "unearned". If I take all 28 days by June 30th, then retire in July, do I need to pay back the 11 days I have not yet earned? ... — read more 

A real theory!

It seems like the party is over for the union and core employees. Att does not want to spend money on wireline anymore. It was ironic for the southeast to get a 5 year contract to put them the same renewal schedule as the southwest. In every area of... — read more 

LOL@WORK

D9 Bargaining. Do not be fooled.

If us Union "slugs" as the good people we work with call us, were so unimportant then they wouldn't comment at all. Yet they do. We should just be bugs on their windshield, not relevant, not needed, not worthy of comment. Yet they do. They shouldn't... — read more

SIPP is being offered today! Take it!

For the entitled group who complain how things were, please fill out the paperwork. Some of us still have young families to support and want to work and learn for our paycheck. Go to house and stop hiding behind seniority!
