Look at his business decisions, all to the determent of AT&T. Buy high, sell low. Who profits? Not AT&T shareholders. AT&T is the cow that is getting milked and the employees are blamed for not feeding the cow enough grain.
Are you "living your purpose" yet?
“ Stock is at a 5 year high, which was just about when Stankey took the helm. Stephenson was the disaster.”
You’re almost “half right”, as Ratty Sleezensc_m was a disaster alright, & Juan Skunkey has carried the torch (to incinerate the remains).
The stock has been doing well last couple of years. Stankey has really turned it around.
Stock is at a 5 year high, which was just about when Stankey took the helm.
Stephenson was the disaster.
Paying a lot of salaries and benefits of workers.
“ Sad you don’t own stock…you must be a low IQ worker bee. Try harder and maybe you’ll be given 100k in stock a year and then the stock price will matter more.”
You don’t know $h1t from sh----a.
I get T stock as part of my compensation…and sell it as soon as it vests and I’m able to.

If you ask this question, they will be throwing this statement “have you seen the stock price ?”
"Lets all remember that ATT stock was 28-30 fifteen years ago and that's where it is today. Stankey Should be in CEO hall of shame."
And it was paying a 7% dividend at that price.

I have no problem with someone making a ton of money, so long as the value is there for it. I’m all for keep what you ki-l, if I make the company a big payday, I should get a nice % of that. If I save the company a ton of money, I should get some of that also. That’s how it works at the top, why not the bottom also? There is NO incentive here to innovate or work harder. I get the same paycheck, within HRs colluded upon wage limits (yes all the companies are colluding using 3rd parties to suppress wages through wage surveys), and the same bonus as someone else that didn’t do a fraction of what I did.
Now back to Stank, what has he done to earn that salary and bonus? But the board voted in that pay package, oh, you mean the people where Stanks is also on their boards? That huge conflict of interest in corporate America. It’s the elites vs everyone else and they are currently insulated from the realities and the fall out of their decisions. They think they can keep cutting jobs, wages, reducing benefits and the revenue will always go up. Eventually no one will have a job or pay will be so low relative to the cost of living that everyone is poor. We are fast approaching that. France had a similar scenario, and history repeats. He hasn’t earned it, he hasn’t done anything to justify it, where are the results? Market based and dog eat dog shouldn’t just be for the low people. That stuff needs to be fixed. We have to rid ourselves of these corporate elitists and the career bought and paid for politicians. If we the people don’t start protesting and demanding changes regardless of party affiliations (those designed to divide everyone), we are going to be back to the Middle Ages or worse very soon.
I’ve lived my purpose, kept skills current, relocated, RTO but am still not an asset according to leadership and could be fired at anytime based on age, nepotism and popularity. Stankey sure knows how motivate employees with his market based what have you done for me today statement and doesn’t value long term employee assets. Sure there are always incompetent employees that need demoted or fired with cause but that isn’t the vast majority of my co workers that I interact and work directly regularly. They created a lot of incompetence by going away from the tried and true meritocracy business model and instead went to an identity model that has been an abject failure. Now they are trying to use contractors, H1b’s and offshore companies to correct it but are only making it worse.
I in return would ask our sanctimonious leader, what is your record and what have you done for the company compared to where it was before you became involved in leadership decisions? Sure the stock has rebounded slightly but still isn’t near all time highs prior to the SBC crew corporate take over. Dividends were cut and revenues are down, assets sold off at huge losses, R&D is nearly non existent and the employee HC is nearly half from 6 years ago. Anyone remember Bell labs and all the patents and products that came from it? In addition, employee’s benefits below the c suite have been either eliminated or reduced because of his and the BOD very bad business decisions. Stankey and gang need to look in the mirror before projecting their faults on the worker bees. Once again a tone deaf MBA and elite Main Street globalist culture that is feasting off an ever shrinking carcass of a once great #1 blue chip company. Lords vs serfs!
@OP a few years ago, I recall, there was a Dallas morning news article that did some research about CEOs salaries in DFW and T ‘s CEO was the biggest winner by a large margin. What a shame for ATT a company that used to care about customers and employees now is riddled with debt and thousands of layoffs, and the power hungry CEO is engrossing his already millionaire pockets, at the expense of customers and employees. It only got much worse by now.
He should be exposed in international news media, as half of T employees are, by now, in other countries that are being paid miserably.
