Letter received - here the option
1) If you say NO. Will submit before March 4. They will hold you until 6mos just like what they did to the CSO folks. Basically, they do nothing getting paid. Wait until you get released so you can get the severance and can file unemployment to the... — read more
MST home dispatch techs still use and abuse program is going away
MST home dispatch tech use and abuse company assets. They drive 100K-200K bucket trucks to their home and back to their home garage everyday. Big V8 6.3 L engines use a lot of gas and insurance on top. Also, with MST high pay and only have .5 job... — read more
Ericsson and Plano Is No Coincidence

All We Are Is A Logo In A Sporting Event
Why is it i can't watch any sporting event without seeing gobs of att product shots. I mean, FFS... the headphones, the endzone cameras, halftime shows, pregame shows, post-game, trophy presentation. There's no end to how much we spend on trash... — read more
Sh-tshow letter
Its out and followed by “more people in fewer places” What a fu--ing mess this is
Who got the relocation letters today?
Who got one? Please indicate if you are market based , centralized or an HQ employee. Seems to be a lot of confusion of who got a letter and who didn’t but was supposed to
This could have come straight from McElfresh
https://x.com/gothburz/status/2009386221521244406?s=46&t=8PYOIs_oDhf5yp9H30hhiw Last September I announced mandatory return-to-office. Five days a week. I called it a "culture-first initiative." Culture means presence. Presence means badge... — read more
You Can’t Build the Future in an Office No One Wants
You can build all the offices you want. The workforce you’re trying to force into them doesn’t want them. Five day RTO is not culture. It’s wasted time, wasted money, and wasted talent. People commute for hours just to sit on video calls they could... — read more
What will they name the new HQ?
Dallas has Whitacre tower……. What will the new shrine to ourselves be named? I gotta know!!! 1st place gets their own desk for at least a week.
Relocation Letters Today
What time are the letters supposed to come out?
AT&T closing Ashland, KY call center effective 3/8/26
The center opened back in 2001 when Cingular owned it. Continued on after the merger with Advanced Technical Support up until 2020 when it became MSS. I got hired in 2015 and the company had around 260,000 employees. I think we're down to 140,000. At... — read more
So, what is happening to Arroyo?
All his direct reports are gone?
AT&T is building yesterday’s workplace with tomorrow’s workforce
That’s not leverage. That’s inertia. In a world moving away from office-centric work, owning 54 acres is not leverage — it’s a bet against workforce trends. Real leverage comes from choice, not mandates
Atlanta offices will be moving to Dallas 2028
Most jobs in Atlanta will be moving to Dallas once they open the new Plano HQ. Some jobs like marketing will be moving much sooner.
The only laughter is about how bad things are
You can tell the state of a workplace by what people joke about. The only time you hear people genuinely laugh or smile is when someone's making a joke about how terrible things are or complaining about management. It's the one form of morale we have... — read more
Forced out last year: What is the URL to get my W2?
Tax Time! What is the URL to get my W2? HR One Stop won't let me in anymore.
Stankey and Shareholders Money
Getting back $.70 on the dollar for everything Stankey touches is a win. ATT Campus in this day and age. What products does ATT pitch and for what reasons? You can't make up just how extreme the company's do as I say customers but not as I do.
Favor to ask.
Got laid off by T last year. Now at Comcast NBC Universal. If you moved to Dallas (I wasn’t able to) do me a favor and go to Universal Studios Kids Resort in Frisco, TX. It will help my bonus. Opens in May. SpongeBob, Shrek, other attractions. Thank... — read more
AT&T on the hunt for more 3.45 GHz spectrum
https://www.fierce-network.com/wireless/att-hunt-more-345-ghz-spectrum
At some point we have to say the quiet part out loud. This leadership has a proven track record of destroying value.
Under Stankey’s watch, AT&T lit tens of billions of dollars on fire. DirecTV was acquired for roughly $49B and later dumped at a fraction of that value. Time Warner was bought for about $85B, then spun off just a few years later after massive write... — read more
One more year
If they don’t cut me this year. I’m 100% leaving next year. I can’t be waiting for severance packages. This place feels like cancerous where I’m slowly dying….
Completely Tone Deaf and Incompetent Leadership
The leadership at AT&T is non existent. The fact they would announce building a new corporate campus than will likely cost upwards of $2 Billion while continuing to layoff hardworking, valuable employees is disgraceful. I’m sure this new campus will... — read more
Bonus
So can we assume that we will get a bonus this year since the company has money to tear down and Build a brand new campus??
Fullstack jobs
Can people who landed fullstack jobs outside this company share their preparation experience and how quickly were you able to land the job? Esp, when you hardly got any time to prepare during the job.
Drag
Wow man, what a drag.
What are we doing??
If I were on a team that truly needed face to face collaboration, real whiteboarding, real in person meetings, then fine. That’s not the reality for most teams here. Even if everyone were in the same building, the tech work has been largely... — read more

Luke Wilson is the perfect ad man for T
Our leadership are all straight from Idiocracy
The Market Has Spoken. Leadership Isn’t Listening.
The market is at all time highs and our stock is down 3%, back to $24. Exactly where it was a year ago. Zero progress while everything else runs. Banks across the board are downgrading the stock to “sell.” Wall Street has no confidence. Employees... — read more
Relocation Letters 1/9…confirmed?
Has anyone got confirmation from their managers of the letters coming on 1/9?
Imagine telling employees we have to reduce headcount while count while flushing billions down the toilet
AT&T announced on January 5, 2026, that it will relocate its global corporate headquarters from Whitacre Tower at 208 S. Akard Street in downtown Dallas to a new, modern campus in Plano, Texas. The new headquarters will be built on a 54-acre site at... — read more
Moving to Plano
How do you feel about that? Is it going to impact your commute, better or worse location?
We need to name the new office.
Stankeyville, Stinktown, Stank’s Folly, The Mistake by Lewisville Lake, Stankeygrad (kind of makes sense for a narcissist like him). Let’s have some fun.
We didn’t say new office. We said NO office.
So now the plan is to demolish the Plano site and build a brand new 45-acre campus from scratch. For one of the most levered companies in the world, still buried under massive debt. This is the same leadership that burned hundreds of billions on... — read more
Sabrina Callahan leaving Digital?
Org charts circulating at Southwest showing new role as SVP Chief Digital & Marketing Officer reporting to Tony Ro--h.
The real reason behind the RTO is to drive attrition
That's all. The question is whether the number of people pushed out will justify the costs. In this job market, people will try to hold on to their jobs and sacrifice a lot to do it. If it's even remotely viable to commute, relocate, or make other... — read more
Another leadership blunder and another massive waste of money
Moving HQ from Dallas to Plano means billions poured into the new campus, long term lease, buildouts, utilities, security, and facilities just to force people into offices to sit on video calls. All cost. No return. There’s a cheaper, smarter option... — read more
The only way to save this place is to replace the entire leadership
Stankey and board have failed, and at least half of the executive team needs to go with them. We need a complete restructuring, aiming for a lean structure with fewer layers of management from top to bottom. Nothing less will work to fix what's wrong... — read more
Looking forward to the first layoff of 2026
Praying I'm among those affected. Yes, I know the job market su-ks, but I've been here long enough to get a decent severance that'll have me covered for a while. And if I can't find a new job within a year no matter the job market, then I guess I... — read more
