The rumor might not be true. But why not offer voluntary layoffs?
They'll be laying people off left and right anyway. Sure, some people they might want to keep could leave first. On the other hand, it's not as if they've been working hard on talent retention. The only way it wouldn't make sense is if they've been planning to ramp up attrition. That wouldn't be a shocker, really.
Is there another round next week?
Or are we done?
Did T sell Mexico division to Televisa ?
Hearing rumors the deal is closing in the coming weeks, that T sold AT&T Mexico to Televisa (Izzi telecom division ) , Televisa is like Cablevision in Mexico they have both media and a Telecom arm (Izzi) . Curious if anyone knows any details and specifically how much it sold for considering it cost $4.3B in 2014-15 to acquire Nextel and Lusocel

I think some of you are lying
When there are posts of people claiming to be let go, their friend was let go, they know of a team that was let go etc, but they can’t answer when people ask WHERE or WHO even though this is anonymous, it leads me to believe these people are lying. They’re just trying to cause excitement and anxiety and stress.

Who Is Smarter? Our Execs or A Pile Of Rocks
So we are moving back South of the Red River from the great OKC metroplex Me thinks our Execs or running neck and neck with a pile of rocks for being incompetent bo--s. Spend the money to move me to OKC then spend money to move me back to Spring. What a waste and that money should be paid for from their annual bonuses.
Oh and rumor has it that layoffs in Spring are gonna help pay for relo. Make it make sense. What a d-mb timeline for us.
Wonder why CHK and SWN went bankrupt or pink sheet stock. Look at the numb nuts running it.

Hearing rumors that the notice period has been reduced from 60 days to 30 days. No official update from Aramco on this however. Can anyone confirm? Has there been an official communication? Does it apply to all expats/Grade codes?
