Topics regarding layoffs at AT&T

I don't understand

Honestly, I don't. Serious posts please. How does AT&T buy, then sell TW, DirecTV, Tmobile, and a host of other companies and sell at a loss while the executives keep their jobs and the board remains? How does selling these mismanaged assets... — read more

“It will be great for the stockholders”

Oh I see. Dump the darling Warner Media for half what you paid and cut the dividend in half. BAD MATH !!!!!! Oh and those stockholders are dumping the stock since the company is run by buffoons !

Got a job with the competition

Time Warner and DTV

The acquisition and wholesale disposal of Time Warner and DTV shows just how disastrous Randall’s strategy was. The company is still saddled with over $100 billion in debt. Good luck to all of the AT&T employees that went over to TW as AT&T unwinds... — read more 

Good news for a change

I know there are a lot of haters on this board but today’s news is good news for all of T. Stankey is undoing all of Stephenson and Donavan’s strategies and T is becoming a telecom transport company rather than a content company. Making movies and... — read more 

When should I tell my boss that I'm retiring?

After 37 years, I'm out due to the benefit changes. Fidelity's website says to start the process with them (to take my lump sum and RUN!) 90-180 days in advance. It goes on to say, as soon as I enter my retirement date - to notify my manager. My... — read more 

Combined T and TW Pension Plans. We are so screwed!

With TW being sold to Discovery for a shinny nickel, no doubt T will give Discovery the lion's share of the T pension plan because Stinky hates us T employee so much. Got to get the lump before Stinky strikes again!

Laying off newer employees?

I’ve started working at AT&T last year and I know a couple of people that started working when I did that got laid off in the last couple of months. Is the a pattern of laying off employees that haven't been at the company for long?

Has anyone heard anything regarding what the future holds for the directv techs? They’re saying it’s going to be a while new company but att still owns a majority of it. Any rumors of layoffs that you feel are semi concrete?

What is wrong with John Stankey

His voice sounds really bad. He's always been a little gravelly-voiced but he truly looks and sounds terrible now. His mind also does not seem very good and he's using note cards which is unlike him. Not saying this to be snarky; I don't care for... — read more 

Hoping to make it another day

I feel bad for them

I can't tell you how many fresh-out-of-college new hires I've seen fired within two or three months of them joining T in the past couple of years. I feel sorry for them. They get hired to do a job that was practically invented by the person who was... — read more 

Every tawnhall is a growing disappointment?

I absolutely don’t trust our management. I often feel that I am working for my enemy who will betray me at some point, will not give me the right information in time or will give me the wrong information. That may be too harsh, but it’s my own... — read more 

Retiree concession SALES?

I keep getting calls from AT&T Employee Concessions to sell me services. In the past I'd cuss them out and blow a whistle in their ear. They kept calling, so not sure what scam this was - I actually answered the call and let them talk. He wants to... — read more

This is not a topic of great importance at the moment, but I am interested in whether there is anyone who has moved from a company where he was worse off than here, that is, whether there is anyone who has made great progress by moving to ATT from a... — read more

Sucks for me

Before I joined AT&T three years ago I asked a couple of people I knew who worked here if it was a good place to work. All of them had only words of praise for the place so I had no reason not to accept the offer. Fast forward to today and I can't... — read more
