Does anyone actually know how leadership is planning to utilize this report?

Does this replace the old PBI "where and how we work" report?
If you're an exempt employee it's difficult for the company to fire you for some "flawed" hours report. But they can harass you about it and make you so miserable you quit. Which is probably the objective since there's a 10% headcount reduction being pushed for mid-year. This report will probably be a memory by Jul/Aug.
This is the most repulsive and useless Dashboard I have ever seen. Keep it going HR minions, you’ll run any remaining morale directly into the ground. This company is f u c k e d
If you give notice they will just fire you. The simple answer to this problem is: Don't give notice. If you are leaving, mail your laptop to your supervisor and just stop disappear. AT&T has done nothing to deserve the privilege of you giving notice.
The different shades of color are different amounts of time spent in office. I think the brackets are 0-3, 3-6, 6-8, 8-12.
"If u give ur 2 weeks notice u can’t just wfh with this bunch. "
You're a manager and write like this? LOL
u?
ur?
What do the different colors on the average report mean? I have asked my supervisor but it does not know.
If u give ur 2 weeks notice u can’t just wfh with this bunch. Our VP is all over this report and enforcing it and even laid out a rule nobody can leave before 4pm no matter how early u come in. If u give 2 weeks notice be sure to update INFOR with sick, vacation or paid leave days. I was the kind of manager to always take pride in my work and never used a sick day but all this micromanaging forces us to do things we have never done !
Won’t be a layoff, you’ll get fired which means no severance and no unemployment. That’s the whole point.
You won't get fired if you show up for work like you were hired to do sweetie. 😘
@aw+1jmfwrn0n - this is the most intellectually honest response I have read on thelayoff.com. you are not wrong.
This is absurd. While our competitors are focusing on market share domination, which appears to be working, we are focusing on how many hours Bob did at the office last week. Hmmmm?
Comply or goodbye!
I don’t know and I don’t care. I’m exempt.
“ I am not for organized labor, but these scare tactics are absurd. There must be a way to use our mass as a workforce against this oppression.”
So in other words you don’t approve of unions/organized labor but the thing you want done is the exact purpose of unions/organized labor. The self awareness here is breathtaking.
You must be the same person who cheers on the Russian tool and his Afrikaner migrant pet and then will complain if prices don’t go down or you can’t take that trip to Yosemite that you’ve been planning because there isn’t enough staff left to let you in.
Won’t be a layoff, you’ll get fired which means no severance and no unemployment. That’s the whole point.
This right here is the truth:
too unreliable for legal mean but good enough for manager's to micromanage

Your annual performance review!
@ag+1jmfwrn0n - cool story, bro
otherwise known as the FAFO report.
No they are using it to terminate. I know someone who was notified 2/7 that he was not meeting the RTO mandate of 5x8. He was completing work at home and was a great resource. He gave his two weeks notice on 2/12 with his last day being 5/26. On Friday 2/14 they fired him for a BCC violation for not meeting the 5x8. They also fired one of his coworkers on 5/13 for the same reason. Irony is that both were the employee Stankey said he wanted. The 20 something rather than the older people but most of them do not want to come into an office 5x8 and have been excelling working remote. In his case it was about a 90 minute commute each way. Since they terminated rather than letting him quit they dont have to pay his 2024 bonus, which I expect they will not. Really cr-ppy considering all of the extra hours he would work to get things done on time and the quality of his work.
Just goes to show no matter how hard you work once the company feels you are not subservient to there will, you will be gone.
So the person above who commented 5x8 or terminate is 100% correct.
Don’t be below 6. Be sure to code time accordingly.
5x8 or terminate. T can no longer afford part time full timers and retirees in place.
Another scare tactic. Eventually will be used to lay off.
What do YOU think they're going to use it for, Einstein?
“Leadership”?! Surely you jest.
It’s not being used by leadership. HR is using it and then instructing your leadership what to do.
To justify firing you. There is no other reason for it.
not really a mystery I think
