What are your opinions when this releases and what will be its impact on cybersecurity in T?

Starlink is GLOBAL revenue and its subscriber numbers will continue to surpass T. There is ZERO chance that T's fiber investment will be able to compete. That is the hard truth and layoffs WILL continue. You can NOT compete with a global market after... — read more

I signed the general release on July 5 but up to this day no severance yet.

On July 1, 2007 , Stephenson's first day as CEO, AT&T's share price was $37.62. Keep patting yourselves on the back.

It's fun and funny to be off work while still getting paid and receiving benefits. I just wanted to thank everyone for funding my life of leisure.

It feels like most of the people who could get out have gotten out. The ones still here are either too scared, too stuck, or still looking. I admit, I'm in the first group. Anybody still here because they genuinely want to be?

We just got moved to a different floor In HQ, and there's not enough desks for the number of people. But they require us to be in office 5 days a week sitting on this floor. We can't leave stuff on our desks because it's supposed to be flex seating... — read more 

To keep our mental health intact, our team meetings have turned into stand-up comedy about how broken everything is. The only time people perk up is to trash leadership or joke about organizing. Morale is so low that laughing at the chaos is the only... — read more

Question for the Orange book wireless techs if there are any on here. If they offer VTP, does one keep their pension? Thanks

You can’t have a “market-based culture” unless you’re actually willing to compete in the market for talent. Stinky keeps talking about building a market-based culture, but what exactly is market-based about AT&T? Companies with true high-performance... — read more 

What he said in the ATG live really pi---d me off and changed my mind. I wasn’t going to take it, but now I will. I’d rather blast leadership in the survey again than sit it out. If nothing else, it’ll force them to confront the exact same feedback... — read more

ATT is like a seller on Marketplace trying offload a rusted out hulk of a vehicle. They photograph a dime sized shiny spot. The prospective buyer sees the Con and balks. ATT just grins and says But look at the shiny spot. Look how shiny it is.

AT&T stock gains 5% today due to increased RTO and confidence in CEO Stankey's leadership going forward

Question 1 - Is there the option to defer severance to the next calendar year? Question 2 - Is remaining vacation paid with normal paycheck or with the severance?

At&t loves a good slogan they can jam down everyone's throats as if that's going to change anything with how terrible the company actually is. Stinkeys "Marketbased Culture" is the latest. "Fast. Friendly. Fixed" is the other and both couldn't be... — read more

She walked by and clearly saw the job posting on my screen. When she asked about it, I lied and said I was looking at salary benchmarks for a friend. The look on her face told me she didn't buy it. Can I be fired over this?

Thanks DJT.

I am a fool. I underestimated Dallas commute, Parking and the 8 hour requirement. What a mess. Door to door is 11 hours for 5 days a week. What the he-l? How are my fellow 50 year olds taking it?

Assigned to go to Bothell through RTO email. Requested Atlanta and management and HR approved it. However HR isn't willing to send an email future location will be Atlanta. Did anyone face this?

All of you gloating over the 2% increase in stock price today, just keep in mind that the stock is still 33% lower than it was 15 years ago and pays out only 70% of the dividend. The stock has grown $1.50 since Stank became CEO and dividend has gone... — read more
