Hope I’m wrong, but I have a hunch that DirecTV is going to be hit with mass layoffs
Please don’t take this as any sort of fact, didn’t even hear a rumor, much less have any info. My thinking is based on the rapid rate at which DirecTV is losing subscribers, combined with the stories about the possibilities of AT&T selling off DTV... — read more

Craft layoffs
Any idea on how this massive cut of managers is going to affect craft?

Stealth Layoff
This company can not even handle a layoff for the benefit of the shareholders (and employees) correctly. If on the Earnings call they were truthful and announced a 10-15K (guesstimate) Managemnent reduction this quarter (instead of claiming they are... — read more
It's time to mobilize, NO ONE hears you here. We will be heard.
No one ever holds leaderships feet to the fire in these meetings. No one speaks up! If we don't act now, we can only blame ourselves later. It's time to work together to send this company a message. We need something like a national sick day with... — read more

4Q Earnings Released and stock down 5%
When will it dawn on these overpaid highly incompetent executives that perhaps the Company is doing so poorly is because they keep cutting us. You need to spend money to make money and cutting corners with the people making you money is wrong on... — read more

AT&T Earnings Hit By Pension Losses
@XmrwhcY-wuq Has a great article on the ATT and Verizon Pension losses affecting earnings. These guys have to fund the pension with earnings when the stick market dropped in December. WOW
And The Excuses From Randy Just Keep A Comming!!
T Stock down %5+ percent at open today. Way to go Randy and the "Senior Leadership Team". Again, the same old lines about things are really great, accelerating earnings and cash flow are just around the next quarter, and our Strategy, (to the extent... — read more

This year will be horrible
Basically, until this whole latest restructuring (or whatever it is) is over, nobody is safe. Which means that every quarter we'll go through the same stress of anticipating exactly when layoffs will hit, where they will hit and who will be affected... — read more
Thank you Thursday!
The Thank You Thursday's they promote, I think all of the exec's should get one of these for running the company into the ground!

4th Quarter results
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-at-t-results-idUSKCN1PO1GW
My "worst case scenario" prediction wasn't bad enough.
We are not a stagnant part of the organization. We lost so many people throughout our work groups that there is no way I can see us being able to support the systems going forward. Can't happen. We even lost people that were in 1 deep slots without... — read more

AT&T Credit and Collections Layoffs
My manager has been laid off yesterday. He had 35+ years of service, gone in a snap... He's the only one departing from my (rather small) group.
So....ATO FT Teleworker not Near CZ
I am a Full time teleworker in FL for ATO. The nearest zone is ATL. Will I be lucky to have a job by the end of this year, or will I make it into 2020? Thanks
Layoffs are a way of life for at&t
35 years ago I went to work for at&t. Layoffs started a few months later. During my career, this has been pretty much SOP. A particularly brutal layoff was orchestrated by our new masters from SBC after they bought us. 50% in my group. Been through 3... — read more

Reset and Reboot The BOD and C-Level Ranks
Downvote if you don’t like but here is my two cents: Stephenson is lost, he’s way over his head and he’s losing control of the situation on the ground. He’s incompetent, period and as an AT&T shareholder I would like to see him out. Yet, our board of... — read more
Lies reported to the media

AT&T Recruiting Firm Posts Great Layoff Facts
These guys placed me at AT&T 11 years ago. I just got this email update https://techstaffer.wordpress.com/
Very, very clever.... WARN REPORTS
Mass layoff timed just right so numbers won’t appear on the report until next reporting cycle. Example the California cutoff was January 25....layoff is January 28 (Monday)
