@am should get rid of those so coaches first, they are just waste of space. The Atlas team is not much better.

@a2 very true
Why do people keep posting about our “financial state”? Is it really that bad? Stankey still gets his $30Million this year, right? So it can’t be that bad….
@OP Nope more like next 18-24 months.
@OP while it could very well be true and has been known for some time that the big stink wants to bring the headcount to that range, what is the source of this info this time ?
The company is unlikely to still exist in 2030. Perhaps it will be propped up by the federal government as "critical infrastructure" and stay afloat a while longer.
Stock price in 2030 $20.30
@a3 I've heard this as well, the goal is to move with speed on this initiative -there will consistent ongoing RIFs over the next 6-18 months -with a large reduction similar to what happened in June before the end of 2026
@ax - there are many more union member posts on this forum.
Sure is a lot of anti-union propaganda on these forums, wonder why hmmm.
Will AT&T still be in business 5 years from now?
Simple. Get rid of the union and save a bunch of money. They’re all lazy so all you need to do is increase their workload and they’ll quit or can be placed on a PIP.
The T “leadership” continues to claim head count reductions will save the company - which is a lie because the truth is “leadership” doesn’t have a fu--ing clue what 95% of its workers even do on any given day. Here’s more, all legacy BLS employees were fired first, then Cingular employees, then legacy T employees and now all that’s left are the SBC boot lickers. FUBAR!!!!
Leadership is repeatedly harping about too many mouths to feed. What is never addressed, is that there are some overcompensated “mouths” at the GM + ranks. If they significantly reduced that population, it would result in significant savings to the business. Perhaps even saving some frontline customer facing jobs. However, they would never think of that approach as it hits too close themselves (and their peers).
The timeframe is being accelerated with T’s current financial state.
Based on what I have heard in planning, we will get there before 2030.
Well, they are going to have to start laying off techs, call center and retail, because there isn’t much more they can cut from the office staff and keep the lights on. Stuff is already breaking and nobody to fix it.
It'll be lower, and get there sooner.
