The company is falling apart

I remember better years, but I hardly remember any periods that were more chaotic than it is here now. You? The leadership is truly awful.

AT&T on resume....

is like telling the prospective employer you have limited capabilities. You can work on the same projects for years, collect a check, and somehow act like you have been wronged. If someone sees a AT&T job -it is a big pass....

“Surplus” in disguise

Executives knew about this all along. Throughout the forced reduction at the end of 2022/beginning of 2023. We would have been better off being laid off then. At least we would have had a severance package and been eligible for unemployment. The way... — read more

Anyone else feel betrayed by this company? You give years of your life to the company, bust you a$$, then some half-wit supervisor, manager of AVP puts on a serious face and reads your letter of surplus to you. As in don't let the door hit you in... — read more

Direct tv

Why not sell Direct tv?! Its a total diaster, customers despise it, and when we try to sell it we get cursed! Sell it, take your loss as you have in all your other adventures and go back to what made AT&T a company!

Irony has come home to roost

I think it’s kind of ironic that everyone is balking about having to go into an office; did people think they’d be able to live like covid was never going away? If you sold your home and moved further away during covid, it’s unfortunate, but that’s... — read more

6/22/23

Will there be a large layoff on this date?

How does Stankey have such a long leash?

99% of other Fortune 500 CEOs would have been canned years ago? Is ther back door dirty dealings with black rock, fidelity, vanguard, and government? It makes no sense how he is still in control.
