Thread regarding Lumen Technologies layoffs

$10B Data Center in Lumen “backyard”

Is Lumen involved? Would be sad to not see Lumen promote/support this.

These Data Centers aren't exactly energy efficient.

Some are. All the big names where lots of compute burns up tons of energy are built in the cold areas.

Perhaps so. Analysts were calling LUMN target of $6. I have bets it falls to $5.

Centurylink sold all their Data Centers (colocations) during its last days. The company that was founded was Cyxtera, which is in Chapter 11 bankruptcy in June 2023 and emerged from bankruptcy in January 2024. I guess their magical virtual Data Centers idea(s) didn't take off.

These Data Centers aren't exactly energy efficient.

“Look in the mirror if you want to see a loser! You wish you had the job I have now simp! You’re a very weak person“

LOL, put down the controller, go upstairs and fix yourself a hot pocket, get some chocolate milk, and tell your mom that you love her!

If you come to this site years after you left the company to condemn anyone who still works here is pathetic. I come to this site to catch a rumor or see what may be going on in other states.
To come here and brag that you supposedly make way more money for a better company is also pathetic. If it’s so great why come here? Go live your amazing new life.
More than likely you are someone who got laid off or fired and is still extremely bitter towards anyone else who’s still employed by lumen. Use of the words “yes man” eludes to the fact you think someone who was able to keep their job is because they are a “yes man”. In reality they are just better at their job than you. Smarter, work harder, get their work done. Again, you are pathetic.

"Any active employee that comes to this site for status on layoffs and then calls people who left 4 years ago a loser?"

The irony in this sentence is palpable. You're still here griping and moaning even though you left 4 years ago and have such a great job now? That's loser behavior. Move on already.

Your logic is flawed. It makes plenty of sense for current employees to be here to see if anything is coming down the pipe. It’s pointless for those that have left to even be here. Move on …

"There is a reason we all left that horrid place."

We? Speak for yourself. Any ex-employee that continues to loiter here and call us "yes men" is a loooooooooooser. Not all us still here are whiners

That's all that Company does is burn bridges. Not only with customer but with employees as well. There is a reason we all left that horrid place. Management is clueless along with all the Yes men! You know who you are too!

Did you see ATT CEO on news yesterday, he stated fiber is not where the money is in terms of connecting people to data! He did say fiber in ground is ok for moving data but the ground already has a ton of fiber in it. That has to be gut punch to Lumen.

If the true “Corporate Office” sits in Monroe, it would be a shame to have another provider steal the spotlight. However, Lumen has been burning bridges and sinking ships lately..
