Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

FBO transition to Accenture

I know there has been a number of comments regarding the FBO transition to Accenture and that it appears to be temporarily on hold. I'm retired now (L2) but was in that organization for a number of years. Can anyone tell me what the original timeline was for that transition? Did it include the entire FBO org? or just selected parts? What is the likelihood of the transfer being called off or is this just a temporary delay?

The transfer is very unfortunate and probably ill-thought. I worked with India for a number of years - constant turnover and once a skill is learned the best always leave for $.25 an hour more.

Best of luck, I am very glad to be out of that place. Terrible exec management. I see Fete is out, boy no loss there. I hope a few of the L4 and L5 are gone as well.

The timeline was to do it in 18 waves throughout 2020 with the final employees going off payroll Nov 2020. Only a select portion of about 1300 and made no sense which ones were chosen. Yesterday's email now says no involuntary until 1Q 2021 although a voluntary offer will happen in 2nd half. They set up a Tier 2 Billing shop in Birmingham with those surplused allowed to apply over the next couple weeks with start dates between Aug and Dec. Don't try to figure this stupidity out as FBO is led by a very weak, incompetent VP and even more inept AVPs. The VP chief of staff is another bungler who has no clue and undeserving of being a director. All directors and below are miffed by this latest email and still no questions answered on the future of Accenture transfers. It's suspected Fete pulled off this id–tic outsourcing deal the either left or got fired. It's a pathetic mess!!!
