Stankey thinks he’s so smart getting us back in the office five days a week. I’m a perennial top performer. I’ve worked from home for the past five years and now I’m back in the office and I do nothing. I asked myself, what are the requirements of my... — read more 

Heard from person in Bedminster yesterday that there is a list of monthly layoff numbers circulating. February is 51.

ATT is not a defensive stock.

The similarities are uncanny...... and they begin at the top

Is it me or the results were not that great today. Everything was worse than last year but it was a beat? It sounds like they set the bar so low and then say they beat it. Is it the stock buyback? Someone in finance explain.

I think it's been years since I've seen her, certainly been a while since she appeared in a quarterly stream.

I heard today a GM that was in Atlanta has their job moving to Dallas even though their team is in Atlanta. I don’t see any jobs above level two staying in Atlanta in the next 2 to 3 years. We have been told that Director and above will all be in... — read more

By 2029, we will have 2/3’s employees than we have today.

$hit $how!

Demand pay increases to match Stankey. If Stankey gets a 50% raise, so should everyone else.

150% bonus incoming.

Gee the culture evolution Stankey speaks of…the one where employees are constantly in fear of layoff, forced relocation, required to work in dirty old offices without proper accommodations, forced RTO, constant monitoring using multiple methods to... — read more 

For my family and progress to early retirement. In this ATT environment just milk the clock and benefits for all that you can and get something on the side going. I literally sit in RTO all day with two laptops and two smartphones going. Takes some... — read more 

Not sure how many employees would say the current culture is the direction we need to be “accelerating”.

We could have all refused to RTO five days. There’s no way they could have laid all of us off or fired us, it’s completely unrealistic. As it stands, we’re stuck complying with a policy that doesn’t work for anyone. It’s been proven to lower... — read more 

Any new reports on recent or future layoffs and what orgs? Onto another topic, merit; Hello Merit my old friend, I’ve come to talk to you again…..within the sounds of silence.

The week before the snow/ice I spent 8 hours/day on the computer working, and 1.5 hours commuting. The week of the storm I was working on the computer on average, 10.5 hours per day, and 0 hour commuting. Good job Stankey -- you have recreated the... — read more

I’d fire everyone on the board, Stankey, McElfresh, and the entire C suite. Then I’d pay Chris Sambar whatever his price is to come back and lead.

I don’t want to. I want to keep the job for now, at least until I find a somewhat decent replacement. I also do not want to play into the leadership’s hands and leave on my own. But the commute is crazy. I lose hours every day just getting to work... — read more 

I like how this site is showing how racist AT&Ts older workforce is. The joke write themselves

Cutting too many people it seems!

What has happened to the work ethic in this company? Some of my co-workers don’t want to RTO. You know who you are.

It was a short week, but it certainly didn’t feel short. RTO is really taking its toll. On top of much voluntary self attrition, many non-voluntary eliminations to end the week, and many more to come soon! Updated numbers will be provided Monday... — read more
