No need for loyalty

I find it funny when I say I'm quiet quitting, and some older employees ask me what happened to company loyalty. AT&T declared war on its employees a long time ago. They don't pay us enough, take away our benefits, have non-stop layoffs, and I'm... — read more

Open Office Concept

What fool decided to push T to implement open office. Bowling or Donavan? Trying to be like google and wasting millions. They also thought it would allow them to lay people off who would never be missed. No suddenly empty cube. Now they don’t want to... — read more

Is T the worst run major company in the country?

Just think of all the failed acquisitions, useless but costly reorganizations, and horrible decisions made in the last ten years or so. Name one company that had so many missteps in that period? And by that, I mean a major company, not a startup that... — read more

Facts

It's more likely to get struck by lightning than get a promotion at AT&T if you don't have somebody looking out for you. Nepotism and cronyism for the win!

Does anyone admire or respect Stankey?

I can't find any reason to admire or respect Stankey, is it just me? He has done nothing to enhance T's position in the wireless arena. Everything he has done has cost the company dearly. $135B in debt due to failed acquisitions. How the he-l does... — read more

They are just experimenting

I would call ATT's business strategy - an experiment. How many other companies do you know that hire people only to lay them off shortly after? There aren't many of them. Such an "experimental business strategy" is very frivolous and the... — read more

How many benefits did we lose in the last decade?

I've lost count. They keep pushing to see how far we'll let them take things and we just keep rolling over. We don't deserve better, to be honest. For as long as we continue to be nice, loyal lapdogs, we deserve everything that T leadership throws... — read more

Someone on here edits and deletes posts. Censorship.

My posts are not offensive, just possibly not in agreement with someone's political views. So I'm seeing several of my responses get deleted. And new threads are deleted if responses don't agree with the poster.

Staying 30 years

Is there really any benefit in staying 30 years? I have 28 years and 2 months in and have been offered a pretty good opportunity. Is there any benefits that I would lose by jumping ship? I reached the Rule of 75 a couple of years ago.

Structure and flow of a business need to evolve and change over time. However, even the mention of the word "reorganization" sickens me in this company. Why do reorgs mostly fail here?
