I think I'll start my retirement process and get out of this place if it's the last thing I do! Too much turmoil and confusion, low morale, dissent among the masses and enormous stress imposed every quarter of the year!
VTP offer today?
Here's hoping! Good luck to all.

People just shut it down, give them nothing

Is this true?

Rumor has it - Stank to bolt after layoffs
Rumor has it that Stank has a birthday coming up, and he's too old to run AT&T. Not that he was qualified to begin with. His charge was to clean up Randall's mess and leave. Well, he's about to lose the better half of 60,000 employees with his recent... — read more

Its all about protecting the dividend to keep stockholders patient
lengthy video but it pops the hood of the company. T cannot afford another low cashflow quarter in their quest to the $6B savings for the year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvB23r8k-sA
AT&T to spouse employees: Eff you!
As if we didn't already know the kind of subhuman filth that occupies the C-suite, I now know of four AT&T couples who are being told that one has to quit their AT&T job, or they have to split up. Half work in areas where the job is local (two in... — read more

I have accessed this message board for over 2 years from my work laptop and
my cou iphone. Haven't heard anything from anyone. You think these id--ts can run this down? You give them far too much credit. I just hear they will be delaying RTO until the fall at least since they are the gang that can't shoot straight. I don't... — read more

What should I do? It is a trap I had to accept the RTO offer to keep my job but I can’t move

Stankey's Actions, Results, and comments over the years at AT&T
Would have you thinking it was a piece put out by The Onion.
Randy is on the PGA board and thats now a mess
anything this guy is involved in goes south. you cant make this up
Time for Chuck to make an appearance
Chuck Norris is the only person who could come into ATT and clean things up! Chuck Norris once roundhouse kicked a coal mine and turned it into a diamond mine.
Stankey's swan song.
Since Stankey was key in the 3 great debacles (Tmobile, DTV, TW) I think we can expect similar performance on the great RTO caper. All grandiose schemes poorly executed and this is no different. Many current projects depend on people who are located... — read more

Don't wait to see what's going to happen
I don't get those who don't plan to relocate but are still not looking for a new job because they are "waiting to see what's going to happen." What are you waiting for, a miracle? For Stankey to grow a conscience? Something else? By the time you... — read more
