That band was mediocre, just like Jeremy’s entire operation. If we have too many orchestrators and not enough doers, that’s Jeremy’s fault for poor planning and leadership. What a fu--ing tool.

I think many of us have questioned why we still spend so much to maintain our little skunk works facilities. I spent a significant chunk of my career in labs. It used to be a place for innovation. Now it's a place for us to showcase the amazing... — read more

Layoffs this week? What organization will be impacted?

Still do not believe the stark difference in my morning routine going from WFH to RTO. Wake up earlier, make coffee and load up the thermos and run out the door. I have to drive halfway here before I allow myself to drink coffee. Otherwise if there... — read more 

Original post was taken down but the company should really zero on the L3 and above associated with the Midwest specifically Michigan, Wisconsin, and Illinois. Some are retired in place adding no value, others incompetent, a few just way out over... — read more 

Many in upper management have made themselves irrelevant. They do nothing but sit on call and send emails. My guess is most of them are truly terrified of exactly how irrelevant they have become and just hoping it isn’t discovered. Only a few in... — read more 

VP down to L3 lots of low hanging fruit that could be let go and no one would notice. Yes a few good ones smattered in there. They are puppets that lack leadership and new ideas. Many couldn’t get hired as a 1st level but yet there they are in the... — read more 

Heard from a very good source high up in V that they are very much aware of T’s comparison and references to their leaner workforce and flatter reporting structure. What was shocking to hear from my source was that most of the industry regards T as... — read more 

If and when Stankey meets his desired number of FTE's, why to employees believe everything will be fine. What a farce, they will continue to "turn the sc--ws" placing more and more employees on a PIP. T leadership has no regard for the rank and file... — read more

This place has become so toxic, I want out. And Id like to save a job for someone else and get severance if rumors of a layoff this month are true. But will there even be a chance to volunteer? If so, how? Is it just telling my boss? I don't want to... — read more 

Yesterday, I sat next to a drop in desk with personal items all over it and politely confronted the person asking why they did that when it's open seating and not allowed. She said so many other people do it and nobody enforces it so why not. She... — read more 

VPs notified Wednesday and shared with their staff. No group spared. Names of those on the chopping block due Monday. Not enough boomers and gen x left to volunteer. Not enough RTO non compliance id--ts to sacrifice. This one is bad. Not a rumor.

Rumors going around that I'll never get laid off so for retaliation I'm going to continue doing the very least amount of work I can get away with without getting fired and I'm going to take advantage of all the many ways we can take off work with... — read more 

Whenever I see warning posts like “I got terminated for not going into the office for 8 hours” or “Make no mistake, they will fire you for non-compliance” you can rest assured that T is incapable of tracking time and aren’t going to do $hit about it... — read more 

What a farce! Also, if we don't get into media we will be managing decline! This all seems so comical now looking back. How could we possibly been so gullable? If we look back ten years from now, will we have the same negative opinion of RTO?

Just got terminated TODAY from AT&T because of breaching the presence policy. I was told it was a violation of Code Of Conduct. What BS!! I have been adhering to the 3 day a week policy but was only going into the office in Jan for less than 4 hours... — read more

Another Friday RTO. Oh how I miss the four day weekends.

Who do I report Stankey to for not providing me an ergonomically correct chair since I have to sit at the kitchen counter in the break room?

Laid off last July, from St Louis. Working remotely 5 days per week. You can't imagine how beautiful my back yard is. sitting on my porch, building some cloud resources while the birds sing. how's your day going?

So much for betting the entire forking farm on AI taking over all the software coding from employees. You have just hammered the final nail in T’s coffin. IBM CEO says AI will no longer be used to write code... — read more

Employee of CSO in Atlanta got let go today, saying RTO non-compliance was the reason. Spouted off in Teams and was promptly removed from the chat. It’s a sh-t show out here!

Some guy got canned for not RTO (sounded like he was maybe still doing 3 days instead of 5). Before they could deactivate him, he was posting all over Teams ranting non-stop.

It’s been rumored that March 20th is the big layoff. It’s what this site was made for. We’ve had waves but this will be the Tsunami. I have it on good authority that the number of employees being given “Stink-Slips” will be a jaw dropper and drool... — read more
