Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

What a mess!

Poor Leadership

Unmanageable debt due to over-leveraged and poorly planned expansion strategy

Excessively compensated executives with no leadership ability

Confusing and deceptive pricing and product strategy

Less than best network performance (network budget used instead to buy over-leveraged entertainment asset)

Poor compensation structure for line managers and teams (people who actually do the work) causing low morale and furthering the customer exodus

This mess reminds me of the junk bond corporate raider M&A scene from the 1980's. Is this just a really bad 2018 sequel to that mess?

Did I miss anything?

T is cutting headcount at the wrong end of the pyramid. It should have started with letting Stephenson go after the T-Mobile debacle

"AT&T's strategy is fraught with peril at every level," analyst Craig Moffett wrote in a note in October. "Each move to use one set of assets to benefit another - the essence of synergy - simply accelerates a decline somewhere else." The lack of business experience is killing this company.
