I got chopped a year ago. I was top performer in my team but did not live near collaboration zone. Funny thing, a much younger guy on my team with an Ivy Degree, and a minority too, told me how upset he was about the way I was treated. He quit the company about 8 months later. Made me feel good. Believe me, everyone on every team knows the abysmal failure of today's AT&T leadership. Somebody will make good money someday writing MBA books about all the strategic and tactical blunders by AT&T leadership the past 10 years. Can't make this stuff up!
I agree 100% with @Xsnlb43-pce . Good post!
