RTO costing employees the equivalent of one months groceries.
I don’t care about reasons for RTO
I will comply with everything they ask, and be very diligent. I need the job badly, and I would rather get severance over quitting or being fired if I must leave. I don’t have other options at the moment, nor can I look for another job for a few... — read more
Resignation Questions
If you give notice end of January and your last day with the company is early February, do you get insurance coverage for the rest of February? And How much PTO will they payout if you didn’t use any days in the new year?
Happy Thanksgiving, make sure you swipe in the office and get your 8 hours in before you do anything else
It’s a Thursday, it’s a work day, go be with your coworkers at the office today. No excuses.
TMobile Market Cap $286B
ATT Market Cap $167B Nice going Randy and Johnny. TMobile is The Champ and ATT is The Chump.
Ever wonder why so many great workers end up quitting?
AT&T proves the saying that "people don’t quit companies, they quit managers." Here, managers are: too busy climbing the ladder to care about their team or the company’s success, promoted based on connections, not actual skill or knowledge, or ... — read more
Microsoft
Are we preparing to sell to Microsoft? Many of their people have come over to the T recently.
Once again, our leaders NOT leading.
SpaceX and T-Mobile have teamed up to bring satellite-powered internet to T-Mobile phones, thanks to SpaceX’s direct-to-cell satellites. https://www.androidpolice.com/t-mobiles-starlink-cell-coverage-just-got-full-fcc-approval/
Tax incentives - RTO
“ The theory goes like this: Companies negotiate tax write-offs on offices based on the assumption that the employees filling them will support nearby businesses and pay state and local taxes. New work-from-home norms meant those offices were much... — read more
Anyone know why T hates their employees so much
Is it because we (the underlings) could not excecute on the WB and DTV mergers and caused the debt of the company to not realize in any monetary gains? Or is that that Bleek Rock owns the company and wants to boost up the Reel estate and surrounding... — read more
Other Telecoms are focused on being the best provider. T focused on badge swipes and LAN time, treating employees like prisoners.
T’s leadership’s only focus is making sure the presence report shows you swiped and sat for 8 hours 5x a week. You’re sick and can’t make it in? Better have a signed doctor’s note. These “executives” have no real vision/direction/motive to drive new... — read more
The economic hit of RTO on an employee
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/employees-spending-equivalent-month-grocery-112500356.html
Doctors Authorization required for Sick Days
HR is getting way to involved and putting too many unnecessary burdens on supervisors in this penetentry environment. I hear more about people talking about RTO monitoring than competing with Verizon or T-Mobile
Generous relocation packages?
What can be expected?
John’s not the problem.. you are!!
Imagine a man who milks this company for $26 million a year telling his employee base that they are not productive enough. Employees make less than one percent of what this man makes a year. He got an 18% raise and gave the rest of us 2.5% and were... — read more
Seeing laptops left connected with no one around.
Guess they went home and left it behind for RTO hours in office. Lol
Incompetent Management
For the love of a higher deity, can SOMEONE teach L3-L4 managers reading comprehension and writing skills? Administer a competency exam testing these basic skills before promoting a bumbling buffoon who creates churn in the organizations. Or better... — read more
Furlough incoming for IT workers
Title says it all. The fun never ends!
Just moved to Dallas, and got my severance Friday
I just sold my home, moved my family, bought a new home at twice the monthly cost I had before, and now I have two weeks to find a new job or I’m going bankrupt. I don’t know what to do, I can’t believe they did this to me. These people are evil. — read more
Ship of fools
This leadership is literally braindead. They must know that nobody respects them anymore, right?
Dec 13
It is a Friday
Surplus packages
What can be expected?
No you can’t work from home on Thanksgiving
In addition, we are grateful for your accomplishments this year and wish you and the family, you won’t see, a happy holiday.
COU will be used to Track RTO
By far the easiest way to utilize tech to create a Geofence at your designated office address and track hours in office. Not here to argue just speaking facts.
L4 and L5 surplus
Did a bunch get let go? Happy fall y’all!
What’s the RTO attrition rate that would please leadership?
All of us? We will not get better working conditions. Just less personal time and more expenses. When being herded like a cattle into barn-like conditions doesn’t work out and we don’t meet the desired attrition rate, what will be next? I’m morbidly... — read more
Milk this puppy for all that you can
Swap the 401K match out. Do not buy ATT stock at all. If you leave and have a pension get it out into an Rollover IRA. Do the bare minimum. Show the ivory tower No Quarter.
ATT to begin charging it's employees a fee
For various working conditions. Similar to Airlines and no assigned seating, reserved seats, business class, first class, window seats etc.... I have heard charges will range from 1-4% of annual salary for you to have the best working conditions... — read more
There's a burnout epidemic in my group
We're drowning in constant stress. The nonstop pressure is unbearable. What on earth does management think it's doing?
John didn’t see this one coming
He’ll go down in history as the CEO who made conditions so bad for employees that every single manager in the company voted to join the union. Congrats John! You did it!
L2 Relocation Package Details
Are any L2s getting relief packages? What are some of the financial details?
Does T even care about retaining some talent?
With layoffs, attrition and RTO, all I’ve seen was T literally shedding competent people. If leadership wants to downsize and reduce costs by having less people on the payroll, fine. But how does it make any sense to have all talent, people with... — read more

Any word on L2 layoffs?
With the L3 and L4 layoffs done, have we heard when L2s might be next?
Enough is Enough Unionize L1 & L2
We’ve all had it. Forced return-to-work policies that disrupt our lives for no reason. Being scrutinized based on feelings instead of facts. Unrealistic targets set by bad data. Policies that drag down productivity instead of supporting... — read more
Promoting the wrong people is driving talent away
When you promote the wrong people again and again, it’s no surprise the best ones walk out the door. When will management finally figure this out?
Cash Flow
Where does AT&T record revenue made from their stadiums? 72,000 fans showed up to Mike Tyson’s fight, making a whopping $18million dollars.
Goodbye yellow brick road
Got my notice. Made it 28 years. Last 20 of them looking over my shoulder. Fare thee well, Hiawatha. Fare the well, mighty warrior.
