Topics regarding layoffs at AT&T

First Head to Roll

Senior Executive Vice President External & Legislative Affairs Bob Quinn. NEXT!!

Leave Randall alone! Maybe he forgot to take his CBTs!

I'm so sick of all of you high and mighties on this website. Randall is a busy man! How could he be expected to know what is ethical or unethical from year to year? Not only is he trying to run a Fortune 10 company, but he is also deeply involved in... — read more

ABOUT TIME

The payments made to the personal attorney of President Donald Trump raise questions as to whether these companies violated anti-bribery rules, experts in federal bribery laws say.

AT&T Cohen Payments

This is astounding! Are employees hopping mad that the company refused to give out an acceptable annual raise to a significant percentage of the company in 2018 but yet was totally willing to pay Michael Cohen $600,000 for "insights?" This action is... — read more 

FORCE ADJUST is definitely in order

Just 4 years ago my stores received 400 boxes a week. We had huge amounts of inventory on hand that took hours to count every month. We had 2 resets a months averaging 30 hours. We had CARS, paperwork, TONS of returns- restock fees were a lot less... — read more

Please explain Rule of 70

DirecTV guy here - so excuse my ignorance since Ma Bell doesn't talk to us. I understand the Rule of 75 (if years of age plus years of service equals 75 then eligible for full retirement). But what is this Rule of 70 you guys are talking about?... — read more

Anybody surprised by this?

Is anybody really surprised by the whole Trump layer payment controversy? Really? Is there one person still working for AT&T who actually believes that the higher-ups would be above something like this? Nobody can be that naive (at least I hope so.)... — read more 

AT&T, what’s going on?

With all the surplus, downsizing going on, didn’t see AT&T/Cohen relationship coming. What else don’t we know about?

Nanodegree?

Is there anyone in the know who can comment on whether upper mgmt really looks to see if people have nanodegrees and move them into open positions? Is it worth the time and effort? I guess it cant hurt........

Rule 70 and AT&T

Is it just me, or is AT&T nowadays not even hiding anymore that they are getting rid of everybody who fits under rule 70? At least it used to be hidden in layoffs with younger people as well, now they just give us unattainable metrics and fire... — read more 

SSR position getting eliminated

AT&T To Dump Direct TV

DTV has been losing customers for months, and word is ATT is ready to toss it in order to get the Time Warner deal done.

IHX

Are they moving In-Home experts from 1A to 1B?

T-Mobile and Sprint deal

Frankly, I'm hoping this acquisition of Sprint (not really a merger, is it) goes through. The fewer competitors they can leave us for, the more we can continue to screw over customers with less offered for more money asked. I really don't see a way... — read more 

More cuts

Cuts will continue until each manager has 10 or more direct reports. This was explicitly stated as a component of the 2020 Vision. No more “special projects” teams with 5-7 FTE. For a change, I believe this actually would be a good thing. Any chance... — read more 

Stephenson is a moron

T-Mobile to acquire Sprint. So T list 5 billion trying to acquire TMobile. T-Mobile sends a big fu to T and Verizon only to buy Sprint and T falls to the curb. Love it. Now watch the DOJ send the dagger. Oh and Randall should have been held in... — read more

16,000 in 7 years

Just wondering, how many more companies can brag with such a high number of layoffs in seven years? All in the same area. I think we all know what happened to those jobs. The need for call centers didn't suddenly go down by more than half. Think what... — read more 

Management Surplus Incoming

Will be announced by the end of this quarter or beginning of next quarter. There may be the usual “effected workgroups” call but from what I’ve heard they already have the names of those who they’ve chosen. I’ve been told the names of the 2 people... — read more

“Not a Good Fit”

My manager met with me last week and informed me that I was “not a good fit” they needed “more from me”. There were no specific incidence or misconduct. I was told to look for another position or resign. I am not in a sales role, but received a... — read more
