Will there be cuts this week?

AT&T has a perfect opportunity to adjust the employee number and cut costs under the guise of coronavirus pandemic. Whatever the earnings report says, I'm thinking right after they'll use that opportunity. If not this week, then before the end of... — read more

It would be nice if they could boost revenue with Early release of HBO MAX. Considering the exhausted amount of money put in it, as well as the licenses they kept instead of renew with other companies. So what's the hold up?

12 layers of management

think about that for just a bit. That's absolutely crazy considering the budgets available. I don't want anyone to lose their job, but we all know there is major overhead here.

Minimum value segment rates for March

The segment rates for March went up considerably from Feb. I’m a little confused why this happened . I’m aware it’s somewhat tied to corporate bond rates but interest rates have not Changed. I’m guessing there’s other market forces at work? Can... — read more 

executives donate salary

Many ceos are donating some of their salary to help offset costs to the company they work for. Just disappointed.

don't get too comfortable

we might be safe for now but wait until this is over, that's when we'll see the worst of it. if you think outsourcing was bad before, just wait until they realize how many jobs can be done at home. and when they realize that, they'll realize they can... — read more

Any chance work from home will stick after this?

There are plenty of us who are not allowed to work from home otherwise, unlike tech support, but we are now doing that and there's nothing that's impeding us in our work. We are as productive as when in the office, if not more. And frankly, I prefer... — read more

Another Great Ratty Decision - TW Pension

Layoffs in Illinois construction/I&R

Can anyone confirm that layoffs are coming to Illinois's I&R and Linemen groups? Chicago seems to be the area with any significant work.

Is this guy for real?

How delusional do you have to be to think AT&T management is making smart decisions? Honestly, other than a few "feel-good" moves made to garner some positive coverage in the last month or so, I can't think of one smart thing AT&T has done in the... — read more 

Don't WE own CNN?

Job titles for Managers

Has anyone heard rumors of HR working on a job title restructuring project? I heard they are evaluating the different managers titles and pay scales and streamlining. Not sure what that means or if it will impact pay.

Is it possible?

Today is the first day in a long while that I have googled AT&T and only received positive coverage on the first page. Mind you, it's all the same subject just covered by different media, but still! I'm so used to seeing negative coverage that this... — read more
