If so, what orgs were impacted? I have already asked my supervisor and he does not know.
Mobility Call Centers & WFH
Anyone privy to the strategy for Call Center reps that either work in T buildings or WFH? What's the plan for Ocean Springs, Orlando... centers? When Black contracts ends will virtual reps be forced to move back to office?
Competence? This sounds way too familiar.

Joined AT&T thinking I was stepping up in my career
Now I’m anxious, depressed, and numb. Every single day I get more work with a "do this or else" attached to it. I'm starting not to care anymore. What are they going to do, fire me? By now, that seems like a better option than continuing to work... — read more

Hard work won't save you
I’ve been laid off twice in the past 10 years. The first time hit me hard after giving 18 years to one company and routinely working 10-14 hour days. I learned loyalty can vanish in an instant. Now I stick to doing my work and nothing extra. Jobs can... — read more

“Market Based” Failure
So this is what a “market-based” company looks like? Since John Stankey took over as CEO in 2020, AT&T’s stock has gone nowhere, bouncing between $14 and $24 while billions were wasted on failed acquisitions, buybacks, pointless reorgs, and the most... — read more

5 Day RTO has served its intended purpose. Time to revert back to Hybrid.
Last year we were on a 3-day RTO schedule and things were working fine. Then, because of the (now admitted) broken presence report, everyone was punished with a 5-day mandate. Since then, leadership has acknowledged that the data wasn’t accurate and... — read more

It’s Time to Reconsider RTO
Mr. Stankey, it’s clear you care deeply about rebuilding AT&T’s culture and driving results. But the 5-day return-to-office mandate is not delivering those outcomes. It’s quietly draining productivity, eroding morale, and accelerating the loss of... — read more
