Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

$40K increase in pay, $35K increase in healthcare costs.

Yikes. Don’t any HR folks know how to do a spreadsheet? This deal is not worth the paper printed on. Unfair labor practices.

Aren't there usually several options, so if you know you will need more coverage, you can pay more monthly but have much lower oop costs? I get it, we all want everything for nothing, but it's 2024, it just doesn't work like that anymore (Thank a d supporting union member for that).

Where does the 35k max OOP come from?

Techs have physical jobs. Ladders, sewers, crawlspaces. Not the same as workload as Johnny Pyjamas being carted down the hall for a photo op with some interns.

Yeah ask Stankey and senior VPs to be on this same plan. I bet they still have premium over premium plans. As a manager I can tell you our health care plan is garbage. $6,000 deductible. Limited networks.

The out of pocket max is $35k?

That’s pretty crazy.

And for those saying you won’t come close to it, I’m in my early 30’s, healthy, workout, but I was born with a condition that requires medication that’s priced at $6k a month….so that out of pocket max saves me, mine is only like $5k? I think? I’d have to look, but I hit it yearly… (management on an HMO)

So it has nothing to do with what health you’re in…

Unfair labor practices? No. It’s not ULP just because you aren’t getting the deal you want or think you deserve. That’s called entitlement.

If you're healthy you won't come close to any out of pocket max. This should motivate the fat out of shape pos to change.
