This guy is in way over his head. AT&T for the 3rd time in 10 years bet on the wrong horse. Making large debt laden bets that hinder revenue and add interest payment liabilities has AT&T drowning with no lifeline in sight. Some will say content is... — read more

Pushing the best people out is not a winning strategy
I can't figure out why AT&T doesn't even try to keep some of our best people - and not just those with experience, I'm talking about the few new hires who actually know what they're doing. It's crazy how much those on top are ready to pay some... — read more
