Customer service week
Customer service week is coming up! What a joke. My manager doesn't give a hoot about customer service. It's all about that pretty spreadsheet of our "numbers" that he posts every week. Taking care of the customers is NEVER mentioned. In fact, we are... — read more
Prem Tech position eliminated
By the end of the year?
In Home "Experts"
Its great in the beginning as with any job but once you're out of 100% comp it's all or nothing. Every month is a gamble. You can be great one month and SOL the next. Yes it's a sales job. We all know it coming in. But then we run into the 3rd party... — read more
Verizon offer isn't really that good
The Verizon folks will never make back what was lost when pensions were frozen in 2005 and health care benefits were frozen as well. AT&T people are so lucky that their management team did not follow suit behind Verizon. (YET!)
verizon volunteer offer: ceo didn't try to hide it and its F'IN double att's offer to employees
att is a c-ap hole.
Early retirement
I was surplussed recently, even though I look at it as early retirement, and it does seem that Verizon has always been run a bit better than AT&T. I'm not saying this with 'sour grapes' but their stock always seemed to do much better than ours. It... — read more
verizon treats their employees with respect, offer doubles att c-appy one
att is just a joke...keep failing everyone, racking up debt...and not executing.
Lucky Verizon employees
Who else is really jealous of Verizon employees right now who have been offered a buyout option? A friend will receive over 200k if he decides to accept it. I can't believe he is even thinking about it. I would be responding within a minute of such... — read more
the new AT& network, is the same old sh--tyone- LOL

Why you suppose at&t is dividing the company into different reporting segments?
http://news.morningstar.com/all/dow-jones/us-markets/201809213535/att-divides-company-into-new-reporting-segments.aspx An even bigger question is why this hasn't been reported on a bigger scale. Can you say DIV reduction?
'They're liquidating us': AT&T continues layoffs and outsourcing despite profits

Sounds like even Seeking Alpha is becoming weary of at&t
Between the long term debt and lingering legal issues, lack of equipment & extreme micromanaging, the choosing of contractors over techs & the barely alive stock price, every employee knows at&t has obvious issues which are leading to nothing but a... — read more
Is this true?
An if it is can something be done about it? Post from @FkAYgtP-fSkwd: Yes , at&t is using contractors and hiding/covering it up more and more. I'm a Systems Technician in South Florida. Workload for US is very slow. Not for contractors. Techs are... — read more
Why no strike?
Why does the midwest continue to cater to the company? Why hasn't the CWA called a strike yet? It appears that the company knows the weakness and pretty much dictates every aspect of current contract negotiations. Hey CWA...it's time to put a foot... — read more

RE: Midwest vsip Vsip for 25 people in center in Columbus Ohio.Ma and the Network Dispatch Center
Everything this company does is plan in 3 years cycles, I believe this is the reason T is offering some areas the FAKE "transition to retirement". They are able to get older employees off the books in 1-3 years and they do not have to lay them off... — read more
The Verizon Layoff threads are the same as AT&T’s
They are constantly worried about everything that we are. Same complaints on upper management, Union gripes (seniority and the like). Many of their abbreviated acronyms are different but mean the same, we call them mass surplusses but they will use... — read more
