We are dropping national retail and handing them to a third party in Q1 2017 and all ARSMs and RAEs will be hybrids nationwide if you have not been moved to that format yet. Anybody want to chime in with additional info? Headcount reductions? Who are we handing our NR partners to?

NR only RAE's are out with only a few making the jump to AR. I'm in National Retail and this is pretty much the end of the line. Good Luck to everyone!
Our COR DOS and vpgm left about 2-3 months ago.. feels like crap will start rolling downhill soon
I doubt many dos will be cut or many arsms, but it will be another bloodbath for RAEs , I would have to say it's will be a 80 -90 percent cut in RAEs based on some markets but that's just my opinion. I'm currently an RAE that handles only NR, I'm looking for a new job now.
Nationwide, RAEs will be notified of us dropping national retail and only supporting authorized retail, which means another headcount reduction of some ARSMs, directors and a crap ton of AEs.
Front line management where
March makes sense considering they are going to notify front line management mid-January.
Next round of layoffs in march 2017, stay tune for updates
I was a Senior-Business Management (yesterday was my last day) they pulled our surplus starting 28 October... thank you AT&T for effing me and giving me the timeframe where everybody is using up the rest of their vacation and giving me zero shot at finding a new position. Word on the street is that this layoff was round 1 and that layoffs are ramping up and jobs are being out-sourced at record paces before Trump takes office and imposes fines for outsourcing. It makes sense and sounds like something this numbers based company would do. Good luck to all those still on payroll!
But what about the BB experience stores? I get non producing WM and TRGT. It would seem that we will see over a 50% reduction in staff even with the COR locations changing to AR.
For Cash trapped company, the only solution
wonder if they will take this as a chance to get rid of more higher salary/benefit people. Guess is YES THEY WILL
My information comes from three separate and equally reliable sources. I can't disclose anymore than that...don't want to break their trust.
Where are you getting your information? A 3rd party would have to be like anderson, Acosta or even marketsource. I doubt it would be marketsource they can't even run target mobile correctly.
