Management has no idea how to forecast the business
Or how to run it. Things have improved a little bit since the 2018 to 2022 fiasco, but it's still more than clear how far out of their depth the leadership is.

Any way to see salary brackets anymore?
Back in the day, I used to be able to be nosey and look at salary brackets in Career Intelligence before they shut it down. Honestly, it was pretty motivating, so su-ks to see it is gone. Anybody know not there is another platform to look at salary... — read more
Can we get some flexibility on RTO in December?
Letting people work from home for the month would be a much needed reset from the weekly he-l of commuting five days a week. Most employees will be on vacation anyway, so how much real collaboration will happen? Offices will be sparsely populated... — read more

Is there anything you're grateful about working at T?
In the spirit of the day, put down one thing you're grateful about working here. For me it's my pay. When I joined five years ago, I got a nice pay bump and it's kept up over the years. It's not enough to make up for all the other issues, like subpar... — read more
Your job isn’t a marriage — it’s a lea
Your job isn’t a marriage it’s a lease. And like any lease, you’re allowed to check in and decide if it still fits; if not, move on. For the past 30 years, it’s worked out fine for me, which is why I’m still there. There’s no need to complain. If you... — read more

The problem has always been SBC.
An inbred, crooked, hillbilly run monopoly that was never equipped to compete in the modern telecommunications economy. Big Ed, with his ginormous golden parachute passing the baton to his simpleton son in law, Randall, who effs it all up and passes... — read more

Glad to be out of AT&T
Getting cut ended up being the best thing that’s happened to me in a long time. The real misery is with the folks who stayed behind in that sinking ship. I walked away with a clean break and a clear head. The market is rough, but even a slow search... — read more
