manage what??? If the companies hardly sell phones now. People are keeping phones for over a decade. If the telcos revenue is lower than the cost to maintain the towers, nobody can manage that. We even got towers in the middle of nowhere that have like 10 customers on them. Congress said what is this nonsense. Congress doesn't want to loan anymore money to the telcos. So they don't care about a telco or any manager.

Remember when AT&T was an innovative company?
Oh!Wait!
Most employees aren’t aware that T was once a cutting edge company.
In your parents time.

None of these ranked results are ever legit. Bought and paid by the highest bidder.

Google Marian Croak, phd inventor who left T for Google. Super smart people won’t put up with the silliness of walking around 10 minutes every morning looking for an open desk no matter what the pay. T will be the employer of the average not the innovators.

If they make our PhD types sit in open concept offices with no dedicated seating, that innovation score is going to plummet.

The most surprising thing to see is that T merited a score in the innovation category.
