Announcement premarket open will likely result in larger layoffs.
No significant reduction in debt load and lack of dividend growth = increased layoffs

Nah, just a manager who understands the business. You are most likely someone who hasn't seen the bigger picture of how copper, fiber and mobility networks operate. If you had them you would understand that the numbers you threw out in your first post were absurd for the subscriber base that we have across the enterprise. Just spewing nonsense and attempting shallow personal attacks when asked for clarity on your position.
On a side note I would imagine you have not been a union member or supervised union members in your past either. There are good and bad in all parts of the company. Usually the bad ones only make up a small percentage. If you had both of those experiences you would have known this as well.
Please feel free to sling more internet insults my way if it helps you deal with your personal situation better.
Ok buddy, report back when you finally figure out that fiber IS wireline. FFS a few of you on this board have no idea how AT&T is even organized. Stop making up numbers and work on yourself. I simply asked you to explain your generic dismantling comment and you got all defensive. Settle down Francis.
If they're gonna continue with more layoffs, I just wish they would start with the bargained for personnel since there a lot of technicians that would volunteer to leave if they were offered the opportunity. The problem is that T seems to think that many technicians are still needed to complete the work even though there is definitely not enough work to keep the techs busy all day! We're busy only half the day at best!

Dude has been sleeping on what’s going on in the company. Probably still uses directory assistance..
“ Define “planned dismantling”
And if you say sell off of mobility or wireline then you would be mistaken.”
Did anyone say that Einstein? Mobility engineering,marketing and sales will be outsourced to agents and vendors.
Did you say Wireline ? That statement says everything about your IQ. Fiber is the new term Gomer.

And if you say sell off of mobility or wireline then you would be mistaken.
The plan is playing out as designed. Surplus will continue with significantly increased pace. Once the milestone minimum headcount are reached in each defined business division, the planned dismantling will start. The sell of will be logical and fruitful to pay down existing debt to acceptable market levels. What you’ll be left with is a T that is 25% this size it is today of badged employees. Then, and only then, will you see a more rational value to the company. Until then…..put your seatbelts on.
