Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

Frustrated

I am really disappointed in reviewing these posts. Getting laid off is terrifying but disparaging AT layoffs. I know NONE of my coworkers would EVER say anything negative about the company like I'm reading. AT dodge, and one day fly. It's a life long career if you are able to do all of the above, it's NO longer a baby bell company. Once you evolve to the new technological world we are moving towards you will have a better idea as to WHAT you personally need to do to stay competitive in the job market place. This is a UNIVERSAL industry change so get on board or move on to something more accommodating to your personal needs. I need to work and my guess is so do you. You work for the largest telecom company in the world! Do you HONESTLY think that would happen because our leadership doesn't know what they are doing? Please stop and think before you post something terrible. If you wouldn't post it on the company sites in fear of consequences then you already know it's wrong and goes against company standard's. If you don't care, then post your name so your co-workers know how you really feel.

I hope you get my point..so Let's keep growing together..

All I ever see on here is company trolls constantly attempting to silence the truth about this once great company. But, the truth will never be kept quiet and I commend thelayoff dot com for offering a safe place to voice.

Layoffs and outsourcing is a form of economic violence that Randy and his ilk use against the people who have built this company, they do it for only one reason, to make themselves richer.

You can try to justify this as just the way things are but that is a weak argument empty of human compassion. That is the argument of the jungle, if I have the power to take something from you then I have the right to take it from you.

I am a woman... It is obvious everyone none of you have true facts and are just blasting this site with assumptions. Give me facts that the company is PURPOSELY terrorizing your lives for the sake of a dollar. If you stop to think you will come to terms with the threat is real and figure away to get out. NO COMPANY not even GOVERNMENT jobs offer security. I'm asking to STOP adding fuel to the fire and get on board. I certainly don't want to loose my job because some p-ss-d off fool ruined it for everyone. Telcom is competitive now, it wasn't before because we were TINY individual companies. Wouldn't you agree enough is enough? Everything on this site is rumors NO ONE knows anything until the axe drops. Your becoming obsessed with the end vs excited about the new beginning. Your only disposable if you don't sharpen your skils and take chances or are not willing to relocate. Everything has a beginning and an end, make it last!

@UHFI9lN-1uvy....He doesn’t work for AT&T, he is a troll that makes ten posts a day disparaging the company always talking about why everyone should drop T service.

He always responds to his own posts trying to give the illusion that there are others who feel the same as himself. Others and I have called him out before but he just keeps on trolling because he’s just.....a troll.

Who are these magical coworkers you speak of? My experience with AT&T employees is that they're complete and utter trash, with zero skill sets (except for backstabbing, sales fraud and credit-stealing).

Sounds like you're a sap.

Yes you are right. Leadership knows what they are doing. That’s why most people live in fear of their jobs getting cut and being replaced by cheaper labor halfway across the world. They’re doing a great job.

It has nothing to do if someone is current on skills or not. If they can find someone else cheaper they will. And not give a damn about it. We have a right to be p-ss-d after listening to all the c-ap and working day and night to please the sob in charge who never seems happy

Hi @UHF191N, perhaps I will call you “Frustrated.”

You make some valid arguments, as it goes, keeping current, needing to work, keep growing together. I’m a long timer with T, I never talk politics or company gripes to the people I work with (those subjects can only be used as a negative) but quite possibly I am reading the posts of discontent from the people you rub elbows with every single day right here, right now...unless, of course, you’re part of the “untouchables.”

Let posters & responders have their freedom to speak in privacy. Let “anonymous” be their protection from harassment, or from being fired for having a “disparaging” view point.

I’ve been wrong before (as my spouse reminds me) but through your post I get the sense you’re not in fear of your job, but many hard working employees are. Many give long hours, some without extra pay, giving up Saturday’s to push out an assignment and hoping to pay the bills. A son, or daughters activity is missed, an important dinner is put off because ‘if I don’t get this done, I may be surplussed.’

So “frustrated,” let everyone (the frustrated) have their say, as you have had yours. You and I would both ask that a proper amount of respect be displayed on these posts, one can hope. But since you came through as “anonymous” as did I, let everyone have that right same right to privacy!

Keep scamming the customer, giving bs runarounds, having 5 different customer svc folks give 5 different answers as to why the bill isn't what was promised has given the company a bad name. Word of mouth matters in this social media age and now the company has become untrustworthy. Thus...revenue will continue going downhill not just because of the streamers, but because a customer can't believe what they are told.

Oh my my my.. it use to be a life long job and people have pivoted but it's pointless because anything below a 4th level is FOOD for the gods. You can square dance all you want but eventually your next partner will say "hey... big gulp, well. see you later" and your out. You think if N Korea had a web page to tell it like it is under kim jong-un they would say oh...here is my name too like your asking? Probably HR..looking to cull the herd a little more. LOL.

@UHFI9lN-kvs Great Company or Companies? Before Stephenson took over, there were SBC, Bellsouth, Cingular, DirectTV, Cricket, AT&T and about 3-4 other companies that I fail to remember the names of.

Stephenson and the board of Directors are playing chess why a lot of you guys are on message boards playing checkers. So many fail to understand the depth of this company, let alone what “ATO” is.

True enough his T-Mobile blunder set back not only the company but the entire sector. But it’s comical listening to some of the complaints on this board from those that can’t see the forest for the trees.

Lol.....Kool Aide talk from Randy’s office again! Post your uuid so we can silence you!

That’s the problem with the T if you go against them or disagree with them they want to get rid of you. Sad way to run a business.

"Do you HONESTLY think that would happen because our leadership doesn't know what they are doing"

This was a great company BEFORE the current management got hold of it.

The bad decisions have driven it into a downward spiral for years. Wake up.
