Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

show me the numbers!

In my lay-off paperwork I wasn’t able to acces the ADEA document, even though it is a federal requirement. Has anyone else seen it yet? It is the Age Descrimination in Employment Act, and tells how many were laid off by age. The company says I looked at it, but it’s still not available...

Alternately, read this article - https://www.spigglelaw.com/employment-blog/jury-finds-att-liable-for-age-discrimination/

Half-way down you'll see "John Gerundo v. AT&T, Inc." and how he won his age-discrim lawsuit. It states:

"The evidence presented at trial strongly undermined AT&T’s justification for firing Gerundo. Some of the evidence included the extremely subjective nature of the ratings system. In the end, the jury concluded that AT&T discriminated against Gerundo because of his age. Gerundo was awarded $370,000 in damages, although that amount could rise if additional damages, such as attorney’s fees, are awarded."

they pay a team of lawyers - heck even some of the "leaders" or "VPs" in IT are lawyers and have nothing to do with technology. so they make sure they have all the ages covered. that is why they pay the lawyers.

There's a way to get it. disable javascript on your browser or use jQuery to check the checkbox w/o clicking on it with a mouse.

You will never find this out.

They paid enough politicians left and right, so this will never come up to light. Ever.
