Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

Not only peeps refusing RTO/relo laid off today

It seems it’s across the board from what everybody is reporting. Also, no real warning - which is sh---y. No wonder everyone here only barely exists while waiting to be laid off. Morale is peaking.

This happened to people I know with the last round of layoffs. An AD in San Ramon had committed to moving to Seattle, was in the process, and, out of the blue, got his notice. I know others that I trust that have coworkers that also said they would move, and actually were, that got laid off. And at least 1 that did move, and then got laid off. HR is flat out lying when they say "that's not happening".

And of course there are a lot of people that accepted the move, and aren't planning on it. If you said you'd move, you were most likely going to make it to the end of the year. The people who declined were left hanging wondering when the notice would come.

Anyone "going the extra mile" for these clowns is just stupid. They've proven that it no one has value to the company. On the CIO call, they said "we eliminate roles, not people". Well that means that you could be a top performer for the company and work next to a slacker that can't complete anything on time and barely shows up to work, but if its your role that's eliminated, the slacker stays and you go. Why try? Why give anything more than 8 hours to the company? Our management has unknowingly created the perfect "quiet quitting" culture. Id--ts.

What’s the pretext? No one sees leads in the office. It’s not about using the office. It’s a shadow layoff, although the shadow is gone. Don’t tell leadership they are lying, it causes them to go to more therapy to help reinforce belief in their delusions. Except Legg, he roofies himself before he does Town Halls, to cope. Read that in your next mean messages big Jer

RTO was announced over a year ago and is valid. Collaboration is critical. Many chose not to listen.

Who still believes the RTO layoff pretext? It was bullsh-t from the start because "leadership" doesn't even have the moral decency to publicly acknowledge the Titanic is sinking. Only the HR SEVP had the decency to give Stink the one finger salute.

A number of employees who accepted but clearly had no intentions to move and had not taken any action were impacted.

Looking at some posts about today’s layoff it looks like Stanley is desperate. He is cutting the branch he is sitting on. T will go down like Enron. With the sky high debt and lack od innovation this company can’t survive. Most if the teams are running on sustaining budget now. How long T can cook its books before collapsing.
