Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

No strategic direction

At least I don't see one. All I see is a lot of "throwing things at the wall to see what will stick" type of decision making accompanied by the omnipresent and always necessary damage control. Am I missing something? Is there some master plan that I'm failing to see?

The strategy is to cut as much as employees as possible. That is their cost-saving measure, and whoever's left, make them go to office located to the most expensive zipcode that level 1 and 2 cannot afford to pay on T's salary. They know it. We all know it. The end game is to have T standing with just bare bones and be prosperous that way. They are living in LA LA Land. D-mb choices, always get d-mb results.

The strategic direction is micromanaging the living bleep out of us. Everything I have seen has been moving in that direction-from RTO to reporting etc…

rto, tracking your every move, making you dislike your job and employer is more important than having a vision or a path for the success of the company. its cheaper and it requires less innovation & planning from the c-suite

We are a media company said RJS. Before that we are all about wireless. Then, now since we destroyed all legacy communications companies we took over thanks to Snake Oil Ed, we’re all about communications. RJS resume was a co-----l for disaster that cost T shareholders 100 billion. Not even an apology…the SBC sc-m just walks out with millions in cash.

The strategic direction is to drive the stock price low enough to allow Amazon/comcast to takeover T. C suite will take their fat checks and run.

You forgot change "bundle" to "converged network" to make the plan sound more strategic and competitive.

Stink definitely has his strategic direction:

  1. Line the Stink bank account with as much $ as possible for being the worst CEO in the US.
  2. Host as many Pajama parties as possible and other freaky perverted events.
  3. Maximize the Stink's reign of te---r to pi----f as many US employees as possible, make as many quit as possible without severance. Move as many jobs to India as possible. Remember, 3rd world unemployment is the greatest issue that US businesses must address.
  4. Stink enjoys golfing and rubbing body parts with the rich and famous - so take the corporate jet to as many tournaments as possible. Waste $ on tournament sponsorship, and pay all your favorite stars for advertisements!
  5. Drive the Toxic-T stock price as close to $0 as possible so some id--t buys it and the Stink can pull his merger golden parachute and walk away with hundreds of millions $.

Make as many people quit as possible to save severance payments is the only strategy at present.

What?
‘Copy tech companies we will never be’
Isn’t a strategy?

Keep pushing forward in two uber competitive markets, fiber and mobility. Doesn't look good.
