Has any COR stores been closed since reopening from the Covid-19 lockdown? If so, which stores?

Q: On what calendar date can I be comfortable that I wasn't impacted by this surplus? AKA, when will I know my job is safe? I understand the desire for specific details around surplus activity, but I can't give you a single, definitive date... — read more 

I have been following this thread and noticed many posts are being removed. Is AT&T monitoring this site? Is this site deleting posts at their request? Just curious if this is a free speech site as claimed or not?

Don’t get me wrong. I have worked for several unethical managers. Those who will do whatever they need to do, to make their numbers look good. But HR is fair, honest, and ethical. Nearly a decade ago AT&T began to organize and communicate the 2020... — read more 

I don’t understand how every non bargained employee gets 8 weeks paid parental leave (mom or dad) EXCEPT union employees. Also only union employees get attendance points and can lose their job for being a few minutes late a handful times a year. Why... — read more

my own fault but 20 years later, what a waste, can't get that time back. so many great companies doing great things and this titanic raked up 180B in debt by purchasing dead companies at a premium. unreal

The group I am in - FBO Billing - is in the process of being outsourced to Accenture (India). Stanky WILL NEVER address jobs being outsourced overseas during his townhall calls. These are jobs that can be done by an ATT employee in AMERICA!

A major cost cutting move

Hi as I waited last Friday for the impending call I never received. I work in the Bloomington Minnesota office and currently still work from home doing credit support. Am I safe?

This company really is clueless. They had iptv going in 2008 but didnt do anything with it to keep evolving. Then at exactly the wrong time they overpay for DTV to go back in to legacy cable tv. Now they want to go into targeted advertising utilizing... — read more 

Luckily I was able to leave late last year but in reading some of the posts there seems to be shock at these cuts. We were told 4-5 years ago that this would be a bad year. Not justifying the bad decisions made by the executives or who and how the... — read more 

It makes sense to SWB to lay-off the higher paid people and later rehire at near minimum wage or as contractors. SCB was more in-tune with employee morale....

Where is the totals? Are we talking 15K positions on Friday? Or more? Or less. Where is ANY news coverage? good or bad.... My team lost ~55 out of 200 in ABS mostly L2, some L3s

So far what we have seen on this site has been right on, seems like the company is decimating the I and R here in texas! Was on a call with management Friday everyone that took the money from other departments are being matched with a cst by end of... — read more 

Are the people who put in for the enhanced SIPP offer just on the hook for the next 5 or 6 months waiting while the company tells you what to do?

It’s just a statement that “okay shareholders, we don’t have anything worth investing your money in so we might as well cut costs in the short term and neuter the organization”.

I was axed this round, can I wait to take the lump on Jan 1 2021 to get the 2021 interest rate? If the current rate holds it will be a nice bump in the lump sum payout!

Henry Ford once purchased a company that made automobile windows. He thought it only natural to own and run a company that produced a part that was critical to his production. His endeavor failed. Why? Because Ford knew how to make automobiles. ... — read more

AT&T-One of America's worst run companies. Just got worse. This latest force reduction could be compared to pruning a plant. Whenever you prune a limb; you always need to retain some leaves on the branch. They will serve to continue to provide... — read more

Great idea, Mr. Stankey and your College classmate with no industry experience (Bill) that you hired to design this "Transformation". Let's reduce staff in the areas where we are already stretched thin with no plan to redirect workflows. And while... — read more 

Were there any surpluses in Entertainment Group? Most Employees are in El Segundo CA, Mission KS and Irving TX.

Personally, I am very happy to be exiting the daily sh–show that is AT&T. They are an Elephant Ballet. Without a doubt, AT&T has aggregated some of the most talentless and mo–nic senior and middle management people in the industry. Between the... — read more 

Working from home is so much better both physically and mentally — saving money, less interruptions and more quality time home.

Anything on this Friday’s surplus list for the wiretechs? Hearing a lot of rumors but no concrete numbers yet.

The percentage of workers that were just released that are in the 50+ years of age range is mind boggling. Someone really needs to take a look at this statistic. If these jobs are shipped off to overseas support centers; AT&T should be fined... — read more 

Once again, AT&T leadership has no idea who actually does the work at the field level. Ready! Fire! Aim! Despite local managers' claims that they had no say in who was laid off, it is interesting that the social clicks stayed intact. If you were... — read more

Not to be self-interested, but if they did it will impact my ability to do my job. I'm sure many of us who remain at this time will face a ripple down affect similarly.

I’m in Dallas AM and there were shifts with CSEs either staying in current role or being placed in the ACQ. Group. What’s weird is I got a new ‘offer letter’ AM 3 Mid. Salary at risk stayed the same. However I’m now non- exempt from exempt ?... — read more
