Data Breach at AT&T????
If true, this won’t be good. https://www.hackread.com/att-breach-shinyhunters-database-selling-70-million-ssn/
I was a happy person before I came to ATT
Is there anyone here who isn’t depressed? It would be very strange for someone to remain the same happy person after a few years of working here. People don't even notice how much this awful place changes their personality. I only noticed this when I... — read more
Changing Mod 75??

Apple
Apple just announced won’t return to office till 2022 now. Come on ATT why is the decision taking so long to announce another WFH extension
huge customer data breach
70 million customer records found on dark web. Full name, address, ssn, etc.
How about this vaxxed..
Would you quit if ATT didn't mandate vaccinations? Would you be "afraid" to go into the office? Would you apply for a job accommodation? Or just trust the "masks work and so does the jab (and additional jabs) that I you will need. Hmm. Please answer. — read more
A laundry list of various concerns...
Does anyone know what the union talks will entail and if bargained employees get an extension on this deadline because I find the correspondence to be confusing. I don't know if the deadline will apply or not since the verbiage basically boils... — read more
People forget quickly
I’m not very interested in other people’s decision whether to get vaccinated or not nor do I have any interest in convincing someone of one or the other. However, does anyone really think that by getting vaccinated they will keep their job? What... — read more
The Stink Feels Guilty? Nah! Take away retiree healthcare, throw'em a rotten bone!
Gee, thanks a lot Stink. You take away a $700/month retiree subsidy and now provide active employees a $800 or $1600/year for ONLY 5 years HSA contribution! Thank you, Stinky the Grinch! You STINK!!!!
Who is ready to stand up?
Let me start this off by saying if you are for or against the vaccine I respect your opinion and stance. I have listened to both sides and have decided to draw my line in the sand. I am interested in understanding just how many we have ready to... — read more
Now is the time.
Currently I am a manager in retail COR. I have been with the T for a while and albeit I hate it, I have stayed for the same reason a lot of people have. Decent money, vacation, perks,…etc. I interviewed this week and if offered a job with this new... — read more
This is how spending $200 billion on mergers that resulted in massive layoffs and utter organizational chaos is described by the outlet:

Unsatisfied with the offers I'm getting
How satisfied are you with the offers you receive? I have sent many applications. I'm not very happy with the offers I received. It demoralizes me a bit because I wouldn’t like to stay here much longer. I am generally interested in how many people... — read more
A few weeks without bad publicity?
What's going on? For months we've had something new pop up at least once a week, and often even more times. I've been checking out T news for the last two weeks and other than a few positive stories, there's not much to find. I'm not complaining... — read more
Slowly eroding benefits
This company has become really good at taking away benefits. That's the only thing this company is doing well. After the last reduction of benefits to those who will not retire this year, I wonder what's next? What benefits will they take away after... — read more
Customer Visits/ Office
Business Seg- Are you managers requiring you to do site visit and go into the office? I’m being told we are about to start.
This ACE East call going on right now is a joke.
Keep dodging the hard questions as-----s.
Am I the only one who's worried about RTO?
I don't care about the vaccine issue, I got mine as soon as it was possible to get it. I am worried about having to return to the office now that I know what it's like to not have to commute or have my incompetent manager breathing down my neck 8/5... — read more
Job accommodation for vax
Curious as to how many have submitted a job accommodation request.
How is it optional if mandatory?
So we are told it’s a violation of COBC if you don’t get vaccinated and that you have to attest and upload your card as proof (or be in violation). Yet all through the attestation flow, it says it’s voluntary and optional and you have to consent as... — read more
Will the U management team step up?
Will the U management team step up & stand strong for its members & not allow the T management team to force this v@x requirement on the members? Everyone I’ve talked to said they’re getting out if the U goes along with T’s plan. — read more
Does your manager know your age?
Can your direct manager see your age in eCorp? Any people manager here who can check? Thanks.
The U management team: Don’t be surprised…
The U Management team: don’t be surprised to see mass exodus from the U if yall allow the T management team to force the vax on craft. Since the day the emails came out I’ve talked to a dozen or so people. Every single one of them brought up the... — read more
Here’s what’s going to happen….
For those of you that don’t know, T follows. They don’t lead. This mandatory vax decision is a good example; they were not the first major corporation to come out with it. If you’ve been watching the news over the last 48 hours, starting with... — read more
Will T ever regret it
because of their indifference to the departures of talented people? T is not only indifferent, but also in every way encourages talented people to leave. I wonder if change will ever happen for this company to finally realize that in the long run... — read more

I see this as a good thing
I'm hoping people are going to have the courage of their convictions and quit rather than get the vaccine they so adamantly opposed. Judging by the people posting here, there'll be a sizable group that'll walk away over this. This means T will... — read more
How hard did you work just before you left?
I gave notice because I can't take it anymore. It turned out that it was not too difficult to find a new opportunity. Since I’ve been working hard so far, I wouldn’t like to leave a bad impression at the end, but on the other hand, I have no... — read more
Exempt from vaccine mandate
Sooooo…..there are at least 8 groups in CNIO who are exempt from the 10/11 directive. Mine is one of them. If it was that important for the health of our employees and customers to get the shot, why isn’t every group included?? Why mandate at all... — read more
Coercion
Well, despite dutifully wearing a mask and natural immunity and antibodies per test 2 weeks ago, because I cannot afford to be homeless I have scheduled my experimental and unnecessary vaccination for tomorrow. This is disgusting. I’m sick to my... — read more
