There goes our raises and bonuses… but hey Stankey gets to pound his chest some more. SMH…
WiFi is Booming
Great marketing campaign, Stankster! Highlights your poor coverage and the need for AT&T customers to join unsecure networks when not in home or office.
To the stop complaining, I love RTO and Stankey trolls…
If you love wasting time and money commuting to an office so you can send emails and sit on teams calls all day, here are a few other things you can do: End direct deposit of your paycheck. Get a paper check and run to the bank to deposit it so... — read more
23 year old managers making 105-125k
Did you know the development program “analysts” start out of the program around 120k compensation in their first full time role? Do you think this is fair given their tenure and experience?
RIP to a Once Great Company
RTO isn’t about collaboration or customers, it’s about control, ego, and cutting costs. Execs aren’t in the hubs 5 days a week, but we’re forced to waste hours commuting just to sit on Teams calls. Hubs are overcrowded, unsafe, and nothing gets done... — read more

Love Letter from HR Post Exit
Left the company 6 months ago due to RTO and a $10k base cut was the cherry on top. Received all exit paperwork, Cobra, Fidelity as expected. This month I received a love letter from HR claiming in June they identified a mistake they made allegedly... — read more
Keep Complaining
Keep the pressure on them. Make sure your voice is heard. The survey results and public shame are not going well for baldy. They want you to shut up and fall in line like sheep. Don’t do it! The more you speak up the sooner change will come.
Excellent. Must read :

What is the story with Redmond / Willows?
Does this location still exist? Is it considered a 5 day a week HUB? More directly, WTC1 & WTC2, WTC3 used to be a NOC and I think it is still occupied by a customer team. I heard it was going to be shut down and put up for lease. Sounds like a... — read more

If you are under 40 runaway from this place
Longer you stay rustier you become. And they treat you bad and may let go any day. Even if you make it to MR75 no benefits and even harder to get out. Cash out your meager pension on the way out. Better use it to get debt free. Explore options to buy... — read more
Transformation office under Susan Johnson
It’s really amazing that we’re going to create another org filled with external executives that are not from telecom. She signed a lot of bad deals in supply chain.
Hey Stankey -- I will be looking for some of that guarantee money . . .
AT&T was sc--wing up my broker's ability to authenticate my account so I Iost some money on a trade opportunity this afternoon because I could not get into my account. It is going to be a little more than the $0.37 you paid me in guarantees the last... — read more
HR stealing from workers
HR is filling their own pockets and playing games with workers
At least we're in this together
It never stops being exhausting to hear the same complaints repeated endlessly. People vent, post, and talk about the same problems day after day, but nothing ever changes. It’s frustrating, yet at the same time, there’s a strange comfort in knowing... — read more

Who else is tuning in this morning to see how our CEO will inspire or demoralize us?

With the AT&T Data breach settlement just announced . . .
and the names of those participating in the settlement going to be public, do you think Stankey would use that information as one of the "metrics" to fire employees that make a claim for the money?
I have not seen this editorial posted on this site . . . long read but interesting.

Stank complains about the age of his employees . . .
but when he needs someone to run something he hires all the old folks. He brought back Bonnie G out of retirement as a consultant, and has now move Sue J to run the transformation team.

Layoffs today under Morgan/Press

Stankey Rally
T 29.36 1 Yr Return not including dividends 50%. Your whining about RTO is irrelevant. Stankey is a genius.

Working here will never get better
Forget about hoping for change. And try not to let all the foulness get to you. T has developed a very toxic culture, and morale is understandably low. We’ve reached a point where talking about it feels pointless. It will never improve. It can only... — read more

LDP/ MDP managers
Usually have no experience managing people, are entitled, and just look out for themselves. Then, as soon as they get promoted, they leave AT&T and go elsewhere. The cycle repeats and a new LDP is promoted by manager. Hopefully my experience is... — read more
Late Sept ACE Management Layoff
Heard a big one is coming. Any corroboration?
T Guarantee
The AT&T guarantee is the d-mbest idea I’ve ever seen, if you can’t guarantee anything to employees, why are you trying to make guarantees to the customers?
VPs are calling meetings to discuss the survey results.
Send a message. Do not attend. We have made clear what has to change and they have no intention of doing it. Do not give them any more of your valuable time to gaslight you into thinking everything is great. The only healthy way to handle an... — read more
