Demography, all the brains are in India now.

I think it's time for the HQ workers to call for a union. The RTO is clearly just another effort to surplus employees. For the workers that are left, its like the wild west to fight for parking and a desk somewhere in the building. We should... — read more

Someone can confirm this but I think employees are vested in the company's 401k matching contribution once they are at AT&T for 5 years OR if they turn 65. My question is do you get the 401k match if you get laid off - oh, I mean surplussed :/ -... — read more
