4/5 People at ATT AVP and Above are simply

Tool bags that carry the water of the higher tool bags. Never seen much vision or leadership out of anyone. In 20+ years maybe there were 4-5 people that I looked at that were high level that had vision to see what was coming. Most thought were su-k... — read more

Answer about 2024 Culture Survey

Legg finally provided answer about the survey. Essentially it says that the results "help us establish a baseline against other leading companies", and that it has distributed to organizations. It WILL NOT be distributed to the employees. Overall... — read more

Since Tuesday there are three people near my desk with some type of respiratory issues, sneezing and coughing, etc. This morning one of the three has flushed skin as if she has a fever. I know kids bring home infections from school, so can we get... — read more 

AR stores scamming customers

It's the same story time and time again. Either the customer ends up with more lines than they purchased, or their phones go missing in the mail. Then they go to an AT&T store and complain at someone who has absolutely no control over the... — read more

How Moving to Dallas Transformed My Career at AT&T

A few years ago, I made the decision to relocate to Dallas to stay in step with AT&T’s growing focus on this city as a core hub. Looking back, I can confidently say it was one of the best moves I’ve made for my career. Being in Dallas put me at the... — read more

Talent Acquisition is Terrible

Starts from the top, this VP they hired from outside has gutted all the good TA team members and outsourced all the work. The level of candidates is horrible from what we got before with the permanent TA employees. All the good recruiters on that... — read more

The only reason I’m still here is my team

10 years with T. No chance to advance my career. I’ve always had very good results, made sure to always update my skills and use training and upgrading opportunities, and I put extra effort in everything I do. I have long since realized being... — read more

With the pending sale of AT&Ts remaining position of DTV, to TPG, anyone know what will happen with Uverse TV? I can guess that TPG would rather not have Uverse TV customers because it involves telephone lines which would involve core AT&T... — read more

My life-work balance went down the toilet with T

Is there a way to somehow avoid three people worth of work being piled on you? I’m relatively new to T. I either feel subtle pressure to work harder or I’m often outright tasked with stuff I simply can’t complete within regular hours or by deadline... — read more

Level Designation

Is there a way to find out what level an employee is? I suspect one of L3s got demoted and since then developed attitude issues.

Tables with sharp edges

Hey, AT&T Plano - can we get actual desks with rolled edges instead of a sharp edged table? You are going to give us Carpal Tunnel!

They don’t care.

When it comes to RTO: Don’t bother even bringing these topics up because to the Big Kahuna, they are ignored. This is how it has been addressed for the last two years. They don’t care about your 2 -4 hour commute. (They will ignore that... — read more 

11/22 Layoff

There will be a notification on 11/22 for next round. Any ideas which org?

Start pushing back and ask for answers

Make them tell you why you need to be in the office 5 days a week. It’s funny watching them squirm because none of them have any real reasons. (Other than making you quit, but they’ll never say the quiet part out loud) Before Covid, 0 days were... — read more 

This year has been all about "doing more with less"

This basically translates to us working extra hours, busting our backs, and still not getting paid what we deserve. T's new mantra is "be grateful you even have a job." It’s infuriating. They expect more every day, but where’s the appreciation or... — read more 

Layoffs next couple of years

The job marketplace is going to get much more crowded with the new government efficiency office reducing bloated bureaucracy. If one is on the fence, now would be the time to jump ship. I’m not waiting around for my new relocation offer, the election... — read more

The future of AT&T

I would welcome a quarterly surplus of the lowest performers. We can barely keep up with our work demands, which is great for the company, but we need additional resources. Not just warm bodies, but instead workers with a drive to produce and... — read more

Top brass are cowards

The AT&T leadership team needs to grow a pair and push back on Stanley’s constant attack on the workforce. Most of AT&T has not been full time office workers in almost 20 years. What happened to work/life balance, increased productivity measures... — read more 

AT&T Benefits Center Dropping Retiree Medical Benefits

You’re a mean one… Mr. Grinch!

It’s understanding for people to be upset about a 5 day RTO when their entire 20 year career has been a hybrid FOW model. But that’s not where things get really nasty. The part where employees are being treated poorly is to have these demands, yet... — read more 

Question regarding Retiree Health Care Coverage?

Noise Cancelling

It’s hilarious to me that we can’t get noise cancelling headphones without paying out of pocket. The background noise on these office calls is ridiculous. Can quite literally hear full conversations in the background. It’s like a call center. — read more
