We keep hearing of these ATS offers but no one has seen anything yet ? Everything is very hush hush for wanting to be transparent ???? We know one thing ...Cablevision and Suddenlink are not what they were or will ever be again. The game has changed the industry is changing ...no. After if your Cablevision or Suddenlink we are all in this boat together under Altice USA, so far everything we all heard and read about has happened or is happening .

So, guys are looking for some real information since they can't get any from the people in the ivory towers. Then this dope below posts a job listing from Rodgers meant to be a joke and ends up wasting everyone's time. This type of stuff is why this workforce is in shambles and can't even get along with each other. To whoever did that, grow up and get with the program.
the first one is job listing online NOT AN OFFER LETTER FROM ATS (but I assuming it is how a real job offer looks from a company in NEW YORK)
the second is not pertinent to this post, but a good point made
the third has ZERO proof and I want to know where anyone has seen this information.
A federal contractor is one that is contracted to to Work for the Government don't get to uptight about it that could be a good thing. You are reading into that wording way to much
Show us some proof
we can't go by hearsay It Is Not Fair to Those Who are in need of this and their sanity!
It looks like this
