Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

Has Stankey declared war on boomers?

It sure seems that way. Most boomers haven't really done anything wrong but they pay a heavy price. We all know there is a percentage of boomers that are completely unproductive. I'm just not sure how you go about separating the wheat from the chaffe!

I'm a boomer that is more than willing to leave the T work force, just need a little incentive to help with my decision. If there's no incentive, I'll be all too happy to stick around and collect an easy pay check every two weeks. Just show me the money, T!

Stanley’s own words on a TownHall. He said we had too many older employees a s that doesn’t match our current customer profile. We need to balance our workforce and make it align with our customer base. That’s the proof and that’s not a feeling. It was the CEO’s own words.

Boomers and GenZers are going to be let go due to advanced age.

Can't say for sure but it sure feels that way. He's using his old "divide and conquer strategy", pit each age group against one another. Works everytime. He wants rid of all us old geezers, wearing our dad jeans with depends underwear, shuffling from our desk to the restroom and back.

I am most willing to achieve knowledge transfer from AT&T. Need not to hire new staff. The needful will be done.

And the Gen Z'ers think they have a future at AT&T. Stankey has a plan for that, and it is not charitable.

The young Gen-Zers can sure learn a lot from us boomers. We boomers know how to use the yellow pages to find the number, and then dial a number at a payphone.

You cannot save yourself you sarcastic little monkey. AT&T is an equal opportunity layoff machine.

Divide and conquer, the last refuge of a weak "leader".

I literally had a dream last night that he was going over separation paperwork with me. He was just as unempathetic in the dream as you would imagine.

It sure feels like it. He totally omits boomers on team calls. I feel like I am walking on eggshells everyday. I know I don't contribute to any special high tech projects, but would like to work five more years and retire at 75.
Oh, and I don't yet wear depends!

What's your position that gives you access to make this judgement (please share)? Do you get to see all the Amplify ratings by age group? Are you a HR Business Partner that gives you this wide access? Or is this just your own opinion? It would be helpful if you could back up your statement with facts, considering that T has employees all over the world in all age groups.
