Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

If you can tax John Deere for outsourcing the manufacturing of tractors, you can tax T for outsourcing human resources, accounting, billing, and Customer care.

The government should not support the betterment of any business that chooses to discriminate against US citizens and Residents, and protection from wokeness needs to be added to the growing list of federal protections for workers. The disease of liberalism needs to be purged from our society, and from within AT&T. Go woke, go broke. Bad choices should have punitive consequences. I will never again fall into the middle of the road rut of live and let live. That has never worked out well when extending the olive branch. Fool me once...

"Elon got rid of 70% of workers at Twitter and it still ran fine. Need some Elon here at AT&T."

He destroyed a bigger percentage of company value than JS!  LOL

Per Musk and Ramaswamy, “Requiring federal employees to come to the office five days a week would result in a wave of voluntary terminations that we welcome”

If this is their philosophy on RTO, I doubt they’d see much wrong with AT&T’s actions to covertly trim the workforce.

Question: If AT&T is contracting with and paying a US company that happens to utilize offshore workers, is T officially considered to be offshoring?

Just curious about if T hire offshore resources to do billing disputes. customer information will be exposed? Maybe they do not care about it

Federal dollars should be invested in the future of a strong America. This public money should not go to the coffers of any company who is not 100% American in word and deed. Big talk no longer cuts it. AT&T is not too big to fail.

Stank does not know how to grow revenue. Every company he led had declining revenue. He took over TW and ki-led revenue with his 100% streaming only decision. Since he cannot grow revenue he has to cut expenses. The only real expense he can affect is head count costs. That is why employees have been losing benefits and why RTO was implemented. He is reducing head count costs to try and save his margin targets. He has always stated that we should start seeing revenue benefits from his investments in 2027. If I had to bet, Stank will retire at the end of 2026 so he will not have to deliver on his promised revenue growth.

It really needs to happen as it’s been out of control for a long time. We can’t keep propping up these countries that aren’t really our friends or allies. Not to mention the harm it does to our own people and economy. Eventually a massive pushback will happen from the grass roots when folks have nothing left to lose.

Without current tax breaks T would already be out of business.
