Topics regarding layoffs at AT&T

Does the CWA care?

I have worked in the SE region(Bell South territory) for 17 years. During this time, I have never been approached by a CWA steward and asked if I wanted to join the Union. At least 9 more techs in my group have the same story. Our CWA reps are too... — read more

DE-UNIONIZED!!

I think it's a good time to get this movement going. The CWA is not what once was. It's so funny how they threaten me when I start talking about this during our meetings. They know that they're not doing crap for us. They're happy collecting our... — read more

SAN DIEGO STRIKE!

Oh, it's on now! San Diego will be walking tomorrow. We just got the green light by our stewards. All because of Port Swapping. I hate to say this but our local has no leadership. Today, 9511 walked and it was one of the most unorganized strikes I've... — read more 

The AT&T Post-Layoff Experience - not pretty

I was part of the 5,000 people laid off at the end of 2016; wanted to share experiences, compare notes, and let others know what they may be in for: Be very careful about what you are told, by AT&T or it's appointed "partners" (Fidelity, Hewitt, Aon... — read more

My filter is coming off

Why do we employ sales managers who can't even text or know how to use apps? Crazy you say? NO! I've seen Director level sales managers who are texting with one finger - God Forbid that they miss their mani/pedi appointment each week.

CWA Southwest Tentative Agreement Vote NO

On the face of it, it looks like a decent contract. But it is not. This contract, facilitates the companies desire to get rid of us more easily. The changes in JOG make it MUCH easier to get us off the payroll. Educate yourselves. It is a bad deal.

Premise Techs Beware

Any good news lately?

Lots of negative stuff going on. Anyone have something positive to share? Any displaced employees landed new roles or promotions? (with T or another company?) Lots of ARSM jobs posted on CareerPath lately. Anyone moving into those?
