Is it hard to to get a new job? Are you biding your time until retirement? If it's as bad as everyone says on here, why not leave?
Like a Haitian Witch Doctor working a French tourist
Is how the company treats surplussed employees. Actually, even witch doctors have not figured out how to try to teleport you hundreds of miles away from family and friends or to torture you with a 60 days notice of execution.
Will working here ever become less stressful?
It'd be nice to reduce the number of meds I'm taking mostly as a result of working at AT&T...
March bonus for employees surplussed last year
Does anyone know how and when does the bonus get paid to ex-employees who got surplussed late last year? Would it be a direct deposit? Will they get paystubs showing details of the bonus? Thanks

Sounds like Accenture offshoring is going through a re-plan?? How's it looking to FBO employees?
Nothing will destroy a great employee's morale faster than watching you tolerate a bad employee.

No layoffs, but BIRMINGHAM? FBO screws up again.
Accenture deal seems to have fallen through. Most assuredly AT&T misrepresented what our jobs really entailed. So we can sign up for new Tier 2 jobs in Birmingham. That’s it. They don’t even tell us what those jobs pay. I have no doubt a lot less... — read more

The $6B TMobile Breakup Fee all told
Cost ATT more than $100B. The spectrum they lost they had to go back out and reacquire at a premium and what TMobile did with that cash and spectrum has cost ATT far more than $80B in lost profits over the past decade. TMobile's growth % after that... — read more

Finally done with AT&T
Yesterday was one of the happiest days of my life, I filed my last tax return with an AT&T W2. I was laid off October ‘18, and it was the best thing to happen. Don’t believe the BS randy preaches, opportunities are abundant outside the Death Star.
TMobile and Sprint are going to eat
ATT Wireless Lunch morning, noon, and night. They won't set their cross hairs on Verizon bit it will be open season on ATTs subscriber base. They can barely maintain it now.
