I feel terrible for all the people getting laid off for not moving to Dallas. I worked at AT&T for 26 years, and have been an AT&T Direct Solution Provider in the Alliance Channel for 10 Years. I got notified that many partners are many terminated from the program since revenue goals are going to unrealistic numbers. I assumed the future was not as many Direct Sales Reps, but now it is fewer Indirect Sales Rep being forced out and being forced out of accounts.
