What was everyone's impression of Julie's townhall today? What about her response to the question in the Q&A about Dallas folks not being able to find desks? And, no mention of a Wave Two?

I was not able to attend yesterday. Any talks about RTO or closing San Ramon campus when the lease is up.

Geo Zone TBA March 24. What’s this about?

Likes to pitch the notion that ATT is a premium brand of some sorts. TMobile is not inferior and in most cases they provide a faster product due to their strategic moves. I just see ATT with no identity and simply existing. They really didn't even... — read more

Direct Tv ? Time Warner? T mobil? RTO /hub strategy? My vote is time warner with the RTO /hub strategy next. Stacking those up and u see how we went from a cash heavy innovation company to a financially strapped empty shell with zero ability to... — read more 

Why should I uproot my family for a company in which neither I nor anybody else have a career option? I move, and then I get sacked a year later regardless of how skilled and hard working I am. No way. If reorgs have had any sense beyond cutting cost... — read more 

In over two decades of business sales, this is the most ridiculous garbage I have ever seen. It’s like they want to fail. They want to create the most toxic, most ridiculous work environment ever conceived. It doesn’t even matter if you sell now... — read more 

We heard Stankey will be in San Ramon on Tuesday, January 30. Those that attend, let us know how it goes.

Are any additional days off given to cover the logistics of moving to Texas?

Verizon and TMobile and that gap is widening. AT&T doesn't have the balance sheet strength to grow and much of their debt is backed by write offs due to DTV and TWX acquisitions. On the other hand Verizon and TMobile can grow as much of their debt is... — read more

Who are some of the better real estate agents in the Dallas metro area?

Glad I've never had to worry about being forced to move to a different state thanks to my union contract.

What are some of the more popular residential areas with good schools in Dallas? Sorry if this has been asked before. I didn’t find much in the archive.

If so how long were u laid off after?

Heard from a reliable source that bonus will be tied to RTO. If you haven’t been in office three days a week and logged in at least 6 hours a day, you will be penalized greatly.

I just commented this, but wanted to make it its own post for more eyes. Here's their plan. Remember, Stankey said in a town hall he wanted to lay off the old people and keep/hire new people, and they never released that recording. So - Forced... — read more

Legg was very strategic with his town hall scheduled early in the week. Reminds me of the Employee Engagement Survey timeframe last year.

In addition to ATS and Business Marketing, what are the other organizations that sent out the Wave 2 letters?
