Up 16% since the earnings dropped. Silly haters.
5-Day RTO
Yes I know HD has nothing to do with our business and what we do. Just FYI, they announced mandatory 5-Day RTO. This may have already been posted, if so, my apologies.
Discrimination - Hybrid vs Office
How can this position be labeled hybrid if we’re required to be in the office five days a week? Isn’t that misleading and discriminatory? I’m really frustrated that this exists in our company. "This position is hybrid, and you may be expected to go... — read more
AT&T to hire 400+ bilingual employees, with $1,500 sign-on bonus for hybrid work

It’s funny when you realize how pointless RTO actually is
I forgot my laptop at home and didn’t realize it until I got to the office. It’s kind of hilarious how there’s literally no work to do without it. No systems. No tools. Nothing. Which exposes the flaw in the whole RTO and “collaboration” argument... — read more
Reconsider rolling back to Hybrid, the industry standard
Last week’s snow related remote work has shown what flexibility actually delivers. Without long commutes and constant office disruption, productivity increases, work gets completed faster, and people are willing to put in more time because they have... — read more
Annual raises
Increases shared with mgrs today and they SU-KKKK! Get ready for 2% or less boys and girls
Do you think you’re the type of leader people gravitate towards or against?
Every one of the leaders should ask THEMSELVES this question and think about the “deposits” they’re making with the employee base. You have no “money in the bank” with the employees since you fuxed everyone over with 5 day RTO.
5 Days in Office
Potential employee here. I know 5 days per week in office is the official policy, but is it actually enforced across 100% of teams? I know a lot of similar companies have RTO policies on paper, but they aren't policed. Thanks in advance;

Layoffs and Contractors
Make this make sense. We lay off people by requiring them to move to a Hub city at their own expense and reapply for their job (or they are declared surplus/laid off). Then, a year later, they are back as a contractor, and RTO doesn’t apply to... — read more

A poem
In the corner cubicle, shadows my throne, Forgotten by bosses, left well alone. Layoffs swept by like a stormy gale, But I hunkered down, safe in my veil. Years ticked away in quiet repose, Dodging the axe that felled my foes. Now retired, with... — read more
Leg T CWA TA
Why would anyone vote no to ratify the Leg T CWA TA? It looks really good for all of us in it.
The job search is a nightmare right now
Start looking for your next role today, but do not quit. The market is absolutely awful, worse than it looks from the inside. I was laid off and with twenty years in the field, it still took me forever to land something new. Being unemployed puts you... — read more
AT&T is like Zombie….
It is not alive… it is not dead… It is just rotting.
While Citigroup and Goldman Sachs both rate AT&T as a Buy with a $29 target, RBC Capital offers a slightly higher target of $30,
I am betting on $35.00/share when RTO kicks in for all. See you on the commute

Bonus
Don’t be fooled by the bonus when they try to feed you the eNPS survey shortly after thinking you’ll respond more favorably while you're fat and happy. That is all this is.

Severance questions
Two of my colleagues were affected few years ago and last year. They both got 2% per year they served in the company. It’s that still a thing or it’s changed because I see a lot of post here in the past regarding severance.

I told you all to buy TDS when it was $10-$15 per share
Still grinding away in the Escape From ATT Land Desk Farm??? Jockeying every day to find a decent spot??? Take control of your future and roll the dice on some small caps. Bunch of losers
Layoffs
When is the next big layoff? They need to match Vrz employees numbers cause T always follow them. I’m expecting like 50% cut.
Why do legacy T make more than legacy B??
We do the same work in the same location. I had a peer ask why they have to ride the same elevator?
