Can anyone confirm if virtual workers in Network org were surplus notified?

Since the notorious August 1st email, the “market” has delivered a clear verdict on T. While the S&P 500 has climbed roughly 10 %, AT&T stock has fallen almost 20 % since that day, wiping out billions in value. Whatever leadership thought this... — read more

He blows cash as he damn well pleases. This new Plano fiasco is a prime example. When will he ever learn that he is a born loser, and as such, he will never do the thing for at&t. Please leave at&t now, you've done more than enough damage.

AT&T doesn’t really care if you grow or improve, they just use your work to make a profit. Once your skills aren’t the hottest thing, they move on. Focusing on your own development and opportunities outside the company makes a lot more sense.

Don’t forget the law in NJ protects you from mass layoffs of 50 or more employing a 90 day period. The off made by the company to choose to move to another location and forgo severance is not legal in the state of Nj. If they offer you 18 months... — read more

That’s not leverage. That’s inertia. In a world moving away from office-centric work, owning 54 acres is not leverage — it’s a bet against workforce trends. Real leverage comes from choice, not mandates

Most jobs in Atlanta will be moving to Dallas once they open the new Plano HQ. Some jobs like marketing will be moving much sooner.

Getting back $.70 on the dollar for everything Stankey touches is a win. ATT Campus in this day and age. What products does ATT pitch and for what reasons? You can't make up just how extreme the company's do as I say customers but not as I do.
