Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

How many laid off 1/28?

I can’t find any cumulative information internally or the news. Only news blood from AP and the same iterative rightsizing emails from ATO and Corp communications.

Really? How about y’all man up (or woman up) and tell the truth

@1vwi - CzechRep have seen layoffs too.

Not that massive as the US but there is no such thing as "being immune"

Knew it was going to be alot. My team's work is already moving over to Slovakia. The rest can be automated. We lost over half on my team. Per what I heard after Monday's m---acre, the next round will be worse in terms of numbers.

Those who didn't get a call will be merged in with other remaining teams. Probably won't report to their current supervisor.

While you can lookup those responsible under a given manager's title, you can also use web phone by country code to find out how many employees are in a particular country as well. For instance, Slovakia Republic has just over 4,000 employees. The Czech Republic has 1,600. These foreign badged employee counts have been immune to reductions (surplus) these past few years. In fact, those numbers have gone up while the USA numbers have dropped.

For managers go into your amplify, go into org chart and keep hitting the above 1 level arrow. That will show all direct and risk reports.

"Look at .org chart in 60 days, 212,878 under Randall now."

Where can I find this info on the company intranet? Like how many are under groups, etc?

Jennifer Robertson 52,016 - she said on her fireside chat Surpluses were 8% under her organization which equates to 4161 persons surplused.

That’s just 1 group(TFS) under mcelfresh.

I overheard someone ask a higher up today, and the response was "about 2700 within ATO"

Can’t hide the numbers. Org charts and force reports will tell the story in a month or two.

@1szb those are exactly the kind of reports that are held under tight wraps. If those numbers were readily available and got out to the press... well you know the rest of the story!

But you are absolutely correct- those numbers would tell a story. And it’s not a good one.

I wish there was a way in webphone to filter on location.

I would to see a DOMESTIC EMPLOYEE COUNT ON 1/25

A FOREIGN EMPLOYEE COUNT ON 1/25

and again in 60 days. I’m guessing there are hr reports that can quickly summarize this data...

30 from a single Greensboro NC location were let go. But heard that 7k - 10k were let go on this first quarter layoffs, as more are coming. watch out ""all"" of NC. 20 years.. sadness. But there is life outside of ATT.

My direct supervisor won't even share the number of people impacted on their team of 25. Like come on, dude, what's the big secret? We're going to get forced to absorb their work anyway and when March 1 hits we'll see them gone so just be straight with us up front.
