Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

He said notices going out very soon. What an a–, they know when, just tell the people.

global business all hands call with frankie jewels was today. he joined 15 minutes late, then read a script about transformation and pain, after preaching some about blm, which is of course expected of him in order to be pc these days. he said layoff notices going out very soon. they have up until close of business tues. june 16th to lay you off with 2 weeks notice and have you off payroll by june 30th and start 3rd qtr without your headcount/payroll cost. that will give them nice things to report to wall street and make everyone have warm and fuzzy feelings and drive the stock up with free money handed out by the fed gov't. everyone will win, except of course you. have a great weekend.

One thing that will not change on Monday is that Stankey and Stephenson will make $50 million this year between the two of them. Subscriber losses will continue at an accelerated pace. Those making over $400k will be kept in place to perpetuate incompetence!!! Each board Director will be paid over $400k with perks and continue to rubber stamp all of management’s decisions.

On Monday the music stops

My VP under Fuetsch said in two different forums this week after July 4th...no specific dates cuz HR & legal haven’t finalized...this may by a rolling thing.

You will get an email about 5pm this afternoon. So, don’t go jetting off at 2pm, like you usually do. The calls will be bright and early Monday morning. There will be 2 calls. In the first call, your entire team will be on the call. Your VP puts the line on mute, then reads some legal mumbo jumbo. On the 2nd call, you join 1 of 2 bridges...you are canned, or you are saved. Have a great weekend, worrying about Monday!

I just got off a team call (low-level, below Director) which also said news probably coming early next week and that there would be a JM video after the fallout.

We were also told to keep our COU devices close at hand on Monday and Tuesday "just in case" we need to be called.

Great way to lead into a weekend.

HR had a meeting at the Smith level (dr to JMc). Orgs are combining and details coming out soon.

Like everything else the c-suite does it's a failure and missed deadlines. So incompetent they can't even layoff people on time. Use the extra time to prepare.

A good source (Director) said that McTurd will be releasing a video next week (target of Wed) that will allegedly explain what's happening, why, and to whom. The speculation is that headcount announcements will need to come before that, so look for Monday or Tuesday.

This is in the Behunin group.

Because upper level managers still hammering out the restructuring plan, once that gets finalized the usual flurry of emails will appear in your inbox.
