Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

Enterprise GPON moving from SSIM?

From am earlier post:
"The enterprise/wholesale ABFoPON orders and troubles will be going back to AFO company wide on 10/23. That decision was made in September and has already been communicated to the management teams by our VP on his call last month. That will remove 99% of the residential dispatches (about 35%-40% of all ABFoGPON jobs on average). Their can and will still be rare instances of folks running businesses out of their homes, but AFO-Business will only work those as retail after 10/23. Personally, I’m thankful for the additional work related to BVoIP 3-6 Line and ABFoGPON as without it, their wouldn’t be enough traditional designed service (DS0, DS1, DS3, SONET, 911, ADE, ASE) work to justify current headcount levels and that would just lead to the same surplus activity that nearly all other organizations are facing today. Is the BVoIP/ABFoGPON stuff fun to work on? Nope. It’s tedious, chaotic and technical support is almost non-existent, but it serves a purpose and keeps us competitive in the mid-mark"......
To understand correctly, the Enterprise gpon orders that SSIM is working will now be going to wiretech?

Yes, the very same enterprise ABFoGPON jobs (nearly all residential) that were being handled by IEFS prior to them being shifted to AFO-Business a few months ago. These will go back to AFO Core on 10/21 (updated).
