Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

Let's get it done!

If they are serious about transformative cost reductions then the four levels of VP command & control structure needs collapsed too. Actual reductions not just shuffling chairs and titles around.

This is exactly what needs to happen. This would save loads of money and affect very little in terms of operations.

L4 144 to 90
L5 623 to 282
L4 2576 6o 1305
L3 6892 to 3960
L2 78747 to 41512
L1 111851 to 52436

Here’s my interest in the numbered- while thousands of L1/L2 get layed off, L3-6 get a nice package to retire or leave. If the company were fair, all mgmt would receive an offer and not just kicked to the curb. It’s obvious the company only cares about mgmt at L3 and above.
I’m not leaving anytime soon but it speaks volumes about the company’s internal processes who matters and who doesn’t.

Since august 2019 we dropped from

L4 144 to 90
L5 623 to 282
L4 2576 6o 1305
L3 6892 to 3960
L2 78747 to 41512
L1 111851 to 52436

today, the highest rates of reduction are at the L6 and L3 level being 10% to 20% higher rate than the L1's and L2's

These are real numbers not just opinion pulled from the air...

Don't you realize the level of discomfort this will cause down at the club when they run into a former Executive VP they fired? You little people can be so cruel. You are so out of touch with the delicate sensibilities of your betters. :-)

Agreed. If the idea is to flatten the company then removing VPs has to be part of the plan. If that doesn’t happen then we know the company isn’t serious about what they are proposing.
All I see are layoffs at lower levels and moving new people into upper mgmt positions.
