Industry Code changing to 9537?

If i’m not mistaken, I read a few weeks back when googling information about ATT, the company Industry Code 6535, might be changing to Industry Code 9537. I paid no attention to it at first, until I was reading through some layoff threads. Then I saw... — read more

This used to be a good place to work.
