Thread regarding Crown Castle International Corp. layoffs

Hey y’all, JayB here. 👋 How y’all doing? Miss me yet? 😂

Just checking in on my old Crown family. I hear things are going… great.

Culture at an all-time low.
More reorgs. More layoff rumors.
Eight job openings.
Stock anxiety.
People asking, “Why are you still here?”
And apparently SpaceX may need 1.5 MILLION small cells.

😳

Now I’m not saying I told y’all so about small cells…

But I did tell y’all so about small cells.

Repeatedly.

Then Elliott showed up and apparently somebody decided, “You know what this company needs? LESS GROWTH.”

Bold strategy. 😂

Back in my day we had towers, fiber, small cells, arguments, problems, purple everywhere — and somehow people still did the damn work.

Now I’m reading headlines like:

“Crown Culture at an All-Time Low”
“What’s Next?”
“Stock is Suffering”
“Hollow Words and Heavy Workloads”
“Why Are You Still Here?”

Good Lord, people. I leave for a minute… 😂

Meanwhile, I’m doing great.

Building homes for families with my buddy David and friends. 🏠
Raising six kids.
Helping save babies.
Trying to do the work the Lord calls me to do.

Turns out I may have picked a pretty good time to leave corporate America.

But I genuinely miss y’all — and I’ll always have a soft spot for the years we spent Living the Purple Life. 💜

Which does leave me with one question:

What color are y’all living now?

Because judging by these headlines, it sure as he-l ain’t purple.

Love y’all.
— Your boy JayB

@g8 you can't blame dish on JB. AMT & SBC all signed similar deals. The fact dish couldn't execute isn't JBs fault. Buying fiber operators and not understanding what they bought is completely JBs fault

@g8 Wait, I need to make sure I followed this correctly…

JayB was an id--t.
JayB started the downfall.
JayB surrounded himself with id--ts.
JayB made terrible deals.
JayB was apparently also a terrible elevator companion. 😂

BUT…
Every CEO since JayB has somehow been progressively worse, which means JayB was actually the best CEO Crown has had in years?

Sir. 😂
This is supposed to be a parody. You were not required to provide supporting evidence.

Also, I absolutely need the elevator story now. You can’t casually drop “I once got stuck in an elevator with Jay Brown” into a 20-year Crown Castle historical analysis and just move on. 😂

Yeah yeah I know this is just a parody but you a--holes speaking for JB he's the id--t that started the downfall of this company that is not even arguable. I was there for over 20 yrs. The best CEO crown ever had with John Kelly, second best has Ben Moreland then probably then T. Miller. But bang no mistake about it starting with JB and I've been in the same room as guy.. and once got stuck in an elevator with him the guy was a complete a** and to me an id--t. I mean he really got the buddy system going their bringing all his dum--ss buddies around him just parenting what he wanted them to say, No differing opinions allowed. But you right about one thing start with him they have got progressively worse and worse so if you're picking CEOs since JB then yeah he was probably the best cuz the rest of them have been freaking awful. I mean guys you remember the Dish deal that was jb baby I mean he bank everything on that stupid a-s deal and most of us out there new it was going to fail from the moment he announced it that's your guy. So don't try to rewrite history man it's just sounds stupid.

Hahah I hope JB is doing great. Since he left everything went to sh-t. He tried to stay in there but the board and Dan knew better.
