Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

They don't want normal attrition

They want 50k employees almost universally making less than 6 figures. That means everyone making more than that and over 40 years old need to be made as miserable as possible until they quit. Performance and knowledge DO NOT MATTER. Leadership believes all this work can be done for pennies by AI and offshore. There are plenty of H1Bs out there to replace you in their little slave commune in Frisco, TX, right next door to the new campus. The more of you that leave on your own, the less of you they have to fire. That is how they sleep at night - they think they are doing you a favor by letting you leave on your own terms instead of just firing you outright.

Exactly what @aj+1kn7ewyd6 said.

The future they want for murica. All corporations want zero headcount. Only computers and ai. Yet all corporations want the now unemployed to buy all their products. What a great business model. What can go wrong.

"If you are making less than 6 figures, you need to develop some skills."

Have you seen Stank's new training expectation for managers? ! Everyone is expected to train up to use AI and whatever comes next. 6 figures won't save . . . it increases the size of the target on your back.

Yeah, companies want to make as much as they can.

Just like employees want to make as much as they can.

First time in business class 101?
