"There’s only around 10k employees I think. That 13-14 was before the big cuts last year. I’ve heard they’re done with cuts. Where are you hearing they’re going to cut? What departments?"
Your department is next....
I wouldn’t be surprised. Trying to automate our piss poor records is the biggest joke I’ve heard in a minute. Don’t call this department. Don’t call that department. All we hear day in and day out. Aren’t we all on the same team? No we are at war with each other. Nobody looks at the big picture which is our customers. They are who keeps us in a job but let’s tell our CSTs that they can’t call and ask questions about an order. They are in the front line face to face with ALL of our angry customers. If we are not here to help our customers who are we here for? Oh wait...TT needs to make luxurious trips and post blogs about how great our company is. What a damn joke. He doesn’t have a freaking clue what is going on out in the field on the front line. He just keeps cashing those unearned checks. MAKES ME SICK!

Don’t focus on a number count. The goal is 100 million in wages via voluntary separation packages & layoffs per regional manager. Earning report is coming up on Feb 22 - all job cuts will be announced before that date.....until the next report.
I dont believe the 4k number. The 1k rumor from a few weeks back seems much more plausible. Regardless im sure there will be more.
Actually that number is not so far fetched. According to Windstream's profile on yahoo finance, there's approximately 13,000 employees. So 4000 is closer to a fourth and the way the company is doing everything they can to run customers off, it wouldn't surprise me one bit.
Fake news
You’re crazy or just stirring the pot. That would be almost half the workforce.
Does Windstream even have 4000 employees left?
