You miss me yet!

So about 12-13 years ago I told everyone I was the bridge to something else. I told you we had the best claims workforce in the industry, without exception, but the cost of this was too expensive and we didn't need to be that good, but just good enough. I told everyone the days of working at SF for 35 years and retiring was over. I told you most people will never finish their careers at SF and it will just be a place for you to get some work experience and move on to something else. I told you to stop questioning decisions because the people that designed the future state model are much smarter than you. I conned everyone to move to a Hub City or long term growth facility just to turn around and close more offices. I told you our systems could never support a WFH workforce and oops we did it in a matter of days. I artificially lowered rates, bought tons of horrible policies and proceed to loose $27 billion in two years. I then gave myself record bonuses of $20 million and $24 million, the highest of any CEO in America. I cried a lot telling you I had to prove my business model worked and completely trashed the company before I retired. I effectively replaced the entire workforce with burger flippers and the 2040 crew. To cover my tracks and all the horrible things I did, I just "good ole boy'd it" and hired my long time buddy to finish the destruction. You miss me yet? It only get's better from here! Dang it hold on...my secretary if pregnant again....


Is anyone left at the (old) Midtown ATL HQ?

Former employee here, I drove past the 8th Street HQ the other day, what a sad sight. The tech bar and demo space on the ground floor (along 8th) have been vacated and it looks like most floors in the north tower are empty, too. I guess Atleos employees are not long for this world -- will they move to Brinks? -- and the stock market seems to have given up on Voyix. I'm guessing Fun Thursdays left with Mike and Owen. (And nobody should give those guys a pass on what happened to NCR -- a lot of this could've been avoided if they'd acted sooner.)

Anyway, that's a lovely carcass of an HQ. I hope it finds a worth tenant soon.

Whitacre Tower will be missed

Once we move out of here and into the new Plano HQ we will truly miss what we had down here in the heart of historic downtown. It was a very cool place to be, lots of great restaurants, and the connections made here working over the years. When you visit the AT&T Discovery District you feel as if you have teleported back into the 1990s when people used to dress up and go to work. It feels like such a cultural and historical place. There is so much nostalgia and that makes me a little sad.


The End of Bothell

Our leader, Jeremy (Give Me Some) Legg announced a fews weeks ago while here in Bothell, that we would be moving from 7 & 8, to some other location. This was proceeded a couple months earlier with a survey asking if we would like to have an office closer to amenities and a would be willing to drive extra for it.

Now we are faced with moving to a new location , possibly 30+ minutes further away. This might be ok for some but not for those who live close by or west of Bothell.

The bigger question is: why would at&t do this? The NTC is in the same complex as 7 & 8, we own the buildings, and we have plenty of desk space (newly upgraded). The parking su-ks if you arrive after 10 am but food options are not that far away if you like to eat out every day. We recently got out of all the leased building in Bothell and Redmond and moved everyone here.

So, when they move us out to a new leased building, what happens to 7 & 8? Do they get sold or leased to another company?

In the mean time, ~2000 Bothell employees get displaced and moved to a leased (temporary) location. It is only a matter of time we are told that since we don't have a permanent office space, our jobs have moved to Dallas. Bye bye Washington employees.


What's happening with 220?

It's clear they're either going to gut it or tear it down, it's just a matter of time. Why else would they have only like 3 (above ground) floors in service? It's weird hearing about how some functions don't have desks but we've got 10 empty floors in 220. This feels like a metaphor for... something.


what is even the point of this rebranding exercise?

no , like seriously , what is even the point of this rebranding exercise? the company is already in a huge loss , like legit 75% down this year , and upon all this loss , they wanna spend on the already existing office infra to "change" the logo , what is even the point of this? also i love the fact that they alligned this EXACTLY with the layoff week and shut downt the office globally .GG.

  • coming from someone who was impacted lol

excellent decision

having jana partners onboard is a excellent choice. the though decisions will finally be made. non critical assets will be sold. the staff bloat will be addressed and all of these satellite offices will be consolidated. and the ceo gets to play the good guy. this thing might actually turn around

Shutting down Uniondale NY

Uniondale office has been used since early 1990s. Leased space trimmed down year after year to what is only one floor now. “Rumor” says entire location closing 9/1 with notice to be given 6/1. Take the Long Island railroad commute to NYC or resign. Approximately $5000 annual cost. No word if it’s 200 Park Avenue (Grand Central station) or downtown Greenwich office (train ride, subway ride, then a few block walk to the building). For most in the building commute will be 60-90 minutes one way when currently it’s 15-45 minutes. Best estimate is this affects 300 people, all of whom are well aware of the “rumor”. Also “rumored” is the closing of the Franklin Avenue location of wealth management (20-30 people?). Progress tells us to be robotic commuters, sit in small desks in a football field sized environment, everyone wear the obligatory BNY vest or Eliza jacket, whisper so as not to disturb colleagues, watch higher ups use their offices, never get a glimpse of the C suite, arrive early, stay late or be subject to ridicule. Leave home at 6AMish arrive home at 8PMish. Sounds attractive?
