Topics regarding layoffs at AT&T

AT&T can't fail

That's the tragedy of it all. No matter how badly Stankey and his cohort sc--w up, there will still be a company left. It might not be as big, or as good, or as popular, but there will still be a company standing. That's why they're so confident even... — read more

I don't know why some of you get so invested

Most of you won't be with AT&T within a year. Some will be fired, some will be laid off, and some will leave on their own, but I'm guaranteeing you that the majority will be gone. There's no point in getting invested in what's happening with the... — read more

My son moved to a new apartment and switched his ATT fiber to the new place. The tech arrive and dropped a couple of F-bo--s during the initial conversion. I arrived, told the tech I was retired ATT, he did not even say hi. Crazy. The fiber... — read more 

How did you find out about this site?

A coworker sent it to me over the summer. I passed it on to two other coworkers. How did you find out? Google search? Coworker? Word of mouth? Water cooler?

Wave 2

Hearing wave 2 letters coming in March. Anyone else? That seems a bit off from the 18-24 month timeline given last year.

T's L3 and Above Bonuses Seem To Be Blood Money

Basically, it's leadership's bounty on the livelihoods of the heads they cut. They dug AT&T into a very deep financial hole and they need the hits to keep on comin' so they can bail themselves out. Or maybe I'm being a bit negative.

Cost per employee versus competition

Basically talking Verizon and know Tmob is not Union (and they are still cutting people) but would still be interested if that information is available. Perhaps this isn’t the proper phrasing of the question but wondering how we compare on a cost... — read more 

How much longer?

Will we have to wait for Stankey to leave? Why is he hangin' around? He can always come back as a consultant for $1M per year like Stephenson. I just don't understand why he stays on, perhaps it's the toturing of the rank and file that he enjoys. I... — read more

Annual Enrollment

Nobody cares anymore

People are no longer even pretending they're doing anything. Nobody cares anymore. And why would we? Most of us won't be with T within a year and we know it. So why bother?

Forcing small Solution Providers out

The Plan Is In Motion

There will continue to be layoffs under Stankey. And when they stop he will retire. Then a new knight in shining armor will come in and turn everything around. They can then all agree that Randall and Stankey caused this but now we can start again... — read more

CAN THEY DO IT?

This person is adding some needed humor to a very sad state of affairs. We know T will do whatever they want and it won't be in your favor. That is why God created lawyers . I got let go 3 years ago and I am thankful I didn't get screwed as bad as... — read more

Isn't it about time?

Big dogs at at&t just got a big pay adjustment. What about us? The managers L1 - L3, we deserve at least a 15% bump now. We've earned it by carrying out Stankey's poor and failing processes and tasks. Rank and file are well cared for, now it's time... — read more

CWA Grievance Question

Do I have to be a "card carrying" CWA member to file a green sheet? Our Union Rep says I have to sign up or I can't file. Thanks

60 day Warn Act

Does anyone know why AT&T didn’t grant the WARN act to employees surplussed? Has anyone had success in getting it? I read that we should get paid for 60 days if more than 100 employees were laid off. Any advice??

Thanks for the heads up. I appreciate you.

Dear Layoff Site People, after being referred to this site, I popped in now and again to see who’s getting laid off. When I saw a post about my business unit, things started becoming real. I started interviewing outside (a frustrating process), then... — read more 

30 day extension

In the Office Today

Decided to stay, as I have an event in the city tonight. Office was mostly empty by 3:30 with three guys left in the office on calls. By 4:30 I was the last person standing. RTO is a joke. There are many of my peers who live near that I never see in... — read more

Just curious I have seen several post that have been removed from here? Who monitors and removes these? Just curious how I see some way of topics stick and others that are removed.

Why is Stankey so arrogant?

I just don't get it, he has nothing to boast about, proven failure at business many times over. Bald, abusive, dictator, blames everyone else for his failures. What is it that makes him feel more important and better than everyone else? He needs to... — read more 

Sales event lead, or sales events managers...

The Days of buying political protection are over

For ATT. It's a more level playing field and ATT is clearly showing it's sloth and incompetence. In 3 short years Verizon and T-Mobile have acquired 7M fixed wireless subs while ATT in it's petty fashion said it can't compete with fiber. Now ATT does... — read more

Ever wonder?

Just how many circuits, lines, and other services at&t is billing and being paid for that the customer is unaware of. There has to be many, seems like an audit should be conducted by an unbiased third party.
