All the people received the RTO letter from San Ramon office are going to Dallas and Atlanta Is the office closing?
T to buy Paramount
Stanley realized he shouldn't have sold warner. It's been downhill everywhere since. So he's buying Paramount now. It would barely add to the debt.
GEM Mobility integration
Just curious how others around the nation are being impacted directly within the SLED org. Specifically the mobility integration that goes into effect 09/01 which is adding 2-300% of unnecessary direct sellers in many markets. Many of the SLED... — read more
First class action lawsuit filed against T

Cashflow Mirage
Even though cash flow for the 2nd Qtr. was $4.2 billion, it borrowed an additional $6 billion.

Constant restructuring
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but here reorganization efforts fail more often than not. I'm getting a little tired of it. I have friends in companies where reorgs do not fail and actually serve to improve the company. What is the purpose... — read more
If near/over the rule of 75, you are most likely gone (unless you move across country)
Three of my team members (all over rule 75, all TW long before covid) were assigned to offices states away from them, despite closer ones being available. They were given the choice of reporting to that office or surplus. All three of them got... — read more

how and where we work
It is not RTO anylonger it is refered to how and where we work. I was informed of that today. Now I feel so much happier with the new way it is phrased. "2% more chocolate" George Orwell 1984
So no fiber layoff under Bolton?
Was told today there’s no layoffs for Fiber sellers but it kinda sounds like a lie just to get sellers to perform their best
Odds we will see the recording from last week's 2q earnings town hall
I'm thinking 0% chance, legal jumped in and probably had it deleted or locked
Stankey one-upped Morgan Stanley’s James Gorman’s “New Blood” comment

AT&T: The Capital Squanderer
https://seekingalpha.com/article/4621713-att-stock-capital-squanderer
Stankey doesn't care about you
To him, you're a dime a dozen. What he cares about is how to make as much money for himself as he can before he is inevitably pushed out. That's the only thing he's focused on. Not the future of the company and certainly not the well-being of... — read more
No Way Even Half of the RTO Crowd is Close to Complying
This company is such a joke. I have no doubt they know who is going in 3 days/week for a full day each time, but so what? What are they gonna do about it? If they start formal threats and discipline action against even one person, they have to go... — read more
JVB post being deleted
Why are the posts about her departure to another company being deleted? This is pertinent information for this website. Rumor or truth, that is what this website is.
What is our Covid policy?
We have a mix of non vaccinated and vaccinated. We already have five positive cases and another who showed up very sick who was screamed at by peers until he left. In the past HR performed contact tracing and informed coworkers exposed. Now a days... — read more

Why do we train for this Then a manager calls and ask to let their tech in CO?
There is no space at Lennox most days, it is a free for all with
people roaming the floors looking for an opening. Collaboration is funny.
RTO
Stinkey done stank up the joint. Do what we used to do, Mgr and most of team is/ was remote to me. Badge in, leave at lunch. No badge readers on way out. Make sure not to use VPN in the afternoon as they are looking for it. Though if you are... — read more
Life is about choices
AT&T has been in a death spiral and constant layoffs and benefit reductions are the result. If we could turn back the Time Machine and if the Jetson’s (Bellsouth) would have purchased the Flintstones (SBC) where would the company be now? Bellsouth... — read more
why can't we have chairs in COR store ?
So we have 8 tables in our store and we have 10 bar stools and 3 chairs. Mind you the 13 we have look nasty, cracks in them, downright dangerous. They fall off on a monthly basis, kinda like our TV sales. We keep asking for more chairs or tables or... — read more
Quiet quitting
So many posts discussing not actually working while being paid or not giving full effort. That's disgraceful. I understand the frustration. I've cut back my hours too. Difference is I'm still giving 40+ hours of solid work in exchange for my... — read more

Younger employees..
JS's comments are wrong and discrimatory. If you think it's okay.. and want to mock the older employees that help build this company.. defending JS will eventually bite you in the azz.. karma.
Does T has a plan forward?
The stock today at $14.50 and company valued at $100 billions with liabilities and debt more than $400 billions Company can’t invest in new infrastructure or compete against VZ and T-mobile JS speech had no new plans just double down on what we... — read more
Good morning fellow inmates
How many of you regularly used to put in 50 to 70 hours a week with no OT or comp time but just can't seem to make yourself do that lately? I still put in a good 40-50, but just can't seem to push beyond that right now. The work is just piling up. — read more
T has no culture and no leadership
It will continue to sink until it hits rock bottom. I don't plan to be around when that happens.
Hypothetical lawsuit and outcome
If a lawsuit were to happen against JS and the company for age discrimination, what would be our outcome? We get to stay and keep working without relocating to Dallas? We get a settlement but only after we left the company? Same as #2 but we... — read more
My all time top 10 Buffoons come from the
SBC Ranks. Stankey clinches the all timer by openly saying things along the lines of: We have too many mouths to feed. Our workforce is too old and we need to be younger. The next few years will be like child birth. Hey chrome dome that stuff may fly... — read more
My attorney says HI!
If you are over 40 years old, you should contact an employment attorney immediately. Stankey said it out loud, on a corporate call, that age is a decision-making criteria component for employment at AT&T. This is against the law. The link for a... — read more
Surpluses need to cut deeper
I often look around this company and wonder why it continues hire/employ so many losers. I mean they aren’t driven, disciplined, and generally have basic skills and education.
Angela Santone - Fake News?
I just went to the web sites mentioned - Fox News, AP, Bloomberg & CNN.... Not one search found any news. And did a Google search too. Seems strange that not one of the quoted articles appeared. If anyone else found the news article, please post... — read more
How attractive is this place to young people?
I would say almost not attractive at all, but it obviously takes time for the top dogs to realize it.
Occupancy Indicator have changed AGAIN
Seeing a lot of people who were TW early this month changed to FTO. Can anyone who was told they are still TW verify that? This is after the initial change in on July 1.
