Director and AVP layoffs in Atlanta by end of January. All directors and AVP's that have fewer than 8 directs will be surplussed. Get ready this one is going to be deep!
Stankey thinks he is a leprechaun that hass a pot o'gold at the end of the rainbow.
He blows cash as he damn well pleases. This new Plano fiasco is a prime example. When will he ever learn that he is a born loser, and as such, he will never do the thing for at&t. Please leave at&t now, you've done more than enough damage.
Don’t let AT&T take advantage
AT&T doesn’t really care if you grow or improve, they just use your work to make a profit. Once your skills aren’t the hottest thing, they move on. Focusing on your own development and opportunities outside the company makes a lot more sense.
Relocation letter in NJ
Don’t forget the law in NJ protects you from mass layoffs of 50 or more employing a 90 day period. The off made by the company to choose to move to another location and forgo severance is not legal in the state of Nj. If they offer you 18 months... — read more

Wanted to share since everything is cyclical. Looks like we hit bottom on the labor market cuts. Should start turning around very soon. That’s not going to bode well for the tops attrition plans and current treatment of employees. So far they’ve... — read more

Moved to Texas then get laid off scenario (Unemployment Benefits options)
What if you get laid off a few months after moving to the new location? Will you be eligible for unemployment benefits based on new location (e.g. Texas) or is there a required minimum Texas employment period?
I Want To Be Surplused
Let’s say you want to be surplused… is there a way to make it happen without waiting?
waiting for the axe
soooo what is happening in other districts with DEG technicians and I and R techs!??? we have one job per day if we are lucky, DEG techs are same very slow just taking down old equipment! Don't get me started on useless air pressure ho-s, all they... — read more
Letter received - here the option
1) If you say NO. Will submit before March 4. They will hold you until 6mos just like what they did to the CSO folks. Basically, they do nothing getting paid. Wait until you get released so you can get the severance and can file unemployment to the... — read more
MST home dispatch techs still use and abuse program is going away
MST home dispatch tech use and abuse company assets. They drive 100K-200K bucket trucks to their home and back to their home garage everyday. Big V8 6.3 L engines use a lot of gas and insurance on top. Also, with MST high pay and only have .5 job... — read more

Sh-tshow letter

Who got the relocation letters today?
Who got one? Please indicate if you are market based , centralized or an HQ employee. Seems to be a lot of confusion of who got a letter and who didn’t but was supposed to
This could have come straight from McElfresh
https://x.com/gothburz/status/2009386221521244406?s=46&t=8PYOIs_oDhf5yp9H30hhiw Last September I announced mandatory return-to-office. Five days a week. I called it a "culture-first initiative." Culture means presence. Presence means badge... — read more
You Can’t Build the Future in an Office No One Wants
You can build all the offices you want. The workforce you’re trying to force into them doesn’t want them. Five day RTO is not culture. It’s wasted time, wasted money, and wasted talent. People commute for hours just to sit on video calls they could... — read more
What will they name the new HQ?
Dallas has Whitacre tower……. What will the new shrine to ourselves be named? I gotta know!!! 1st place gets their own desk for at least a week.
Relocation Letters Today
What time are the letters supposed to come out?
AT&T closing Ashland, KY call center effective 3/8/26
The center opened back in 2001 when Cingular owned it. Continued on after the merger with Advanced Technical Support up until 2020 when it became MSS. I got hired in 2015 and the company had around 260,000 employees. I think we're down to 140,000. At... — read more
So, what is happening to Arroyo?
All his direct reports are gone?
AT&T is building yesterday’s workplace with tomorrow’s workforce
That’s not leverage. That’s inertia. In a world moving away from office-centric work, owning 54 acres is not leverage — it’s a bet against workforce trends. Real leverage comes from choice, not mandates
Atlanta offices will be moving to Dallas 2028
Most jobs in Atlanta will be moving to Dallas once they open the new Plano HQ. Some jobs like marketing will be moving much sooner.
The only laughter is about how bad things are
You can tell the state of a workplace by what people joke about. The only time you hear people genuinely laugh or smile is when someone's making a joke about how terrible things are or complaining about management. It's the one form of morale we have... — read more
Forced out last year: What is the URL to get my W2?
Tax Time! What is the URL to get my W2? HR One Stop won't let me in anymore.
Stankey and Shareholders Money
Getting back $.70 on the dollar for everything Stankey touches is a win. ATT Campus in this day and age. What products does ATT pitch and for what reasons? You can't make up just how extreme the company's do as I say customers but not as I do.
Favor to ask.
Got laid off by T last year. Now at Comcast NBC Universal. If you moved to Dallas (I wasn’t able to) do me a favor and go to Universal Studios Kids Resort in Frisco, TX. It will help my bonus. Opens in May. SpongeBob, Shrek, other attractions. Thank... — read more
AT&T on the hunt for more 3.45 GHz spectrum
https://www.fierce-network.com/wireless/att-hunt-more-345-ghz-spectrum
At some point we have to say the quiet part out loud. This leadership has a proven track record of destroying value.
Under Stankey’s watch, AT&T lit tens of billions of dollars on fire. DirecTV was acquired for roughly $49B and later dumped at a fraction of that value. Time Warner was bought for about $85B, then spun off just a few years later after massive write... — read more
One more year
If they don’t cut me this year. I’m 100% leaving next year. I can’t be waiting for severance packages. This place feels like cancerous where I’m slowly dying….
Completely Tone Deaf and Incompetent Leadership
The leadership at AT&T is non existent. The fact they would announce building a new corporate campus than will likely cost upwards of $2 Billion while continuing to layoff hardworking, valuable employees is disgraceful. I’m sure this new campus will... — read more
Bonus
So can we assume that we will get a bonus this year since the company has money to tear down and Build a brand new campus??
Fullstack jobs
Can people who landed fullstack jobs outside this company share their preparation experience and how quickly were you able to land the job? Esp, when you hardly got any time to prepare during the job.
Drag
Wow man, what a drag.
What are we doing??
If I were on a team that truly needed face to face collaboration, real whiteboarding, real in person meetings, then fine. That’s not the reality for most teams here. Even if everyone were in the same building, the tech work has been largely... — read more

Our leadership are all straight from Idiocracy
The Market Has Spoken. Leadership Isn’t Listening.
