Thread regarding AT&T Inc. layoffs

New surpluses and more coming next year in Chicago

December 14, 2015

Today, AT&T has yet again announced consolidations and surpluses around the holidays. AT&T’s announcement affects employees in many organizations throughout Illinois and across the United States. Many of the job cuts will affect employees represented by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local Union 21 (IBEW 21) as well as other members in the IBEW System Council T-3 (SCT-3). With these announcements comes many concerns into how much AT&T really values their core landline business.

The departments being offered general SIPPS will be seeing surplus notifications in 2016.

Same thing happened in the Southeast. They don't care a lick about landline. I've seen top level managers let go who actually knew the job. 2016 will be bad I'm sure.

Well, our union local is again out fo the loop. Found out about the AT&T surplus/VTP on this forum and when the local was asked about this, they had no clue. I had to send them the weblink to the CWA webpage reporting the surplus. Other than that, they know nothing else. No wonder the company is getting away with these layoffs.
