And we’re over paying a C list actor and someone in marketing to call out T-Mobile? A competitor whose stock price is 10x ours. We’re doomed. WTF!
A year into 5x RTO… and for what?
We’re a full year into mandatory 5-day RTO and what exactly has it accomplished? The stock is tanking, morale is gone, and the “culture” they promised doesn’t exist. Wasn’t RTO supposed to be part of some grand plan to save the company? To drive... — read more

AT&T: The Company That Sells “Connection” but Can’t Connect With Anyone

Growth
Welp sounds like work will be moving
Did this mo--n really blame the crackdown on illegals for slow growth?
That's just some next level stupidity.
“Normalize not backfilling”
I understand tools like Copilot help pick up the pieces. But, That’s insane to say.
Why do they think the AT&T Guarantee is this groundbreaking idea?
They keep shoving this down our throat like we're the only ones who don't understand why it's valuable? No one cares if they get $5.37 refunded to them when their internet was out for an hour. Also, customers expect to be compensated for your service... — read more

3Q Earnings
Stankey tried to put lipstick on a pig but wallstreet isn’t falling for it. Down another 5% at the open. When will the dysfunction end?!?!?
When you show up to the miserable employee competition and your opponent is a T employee
If you think we are a telecom company, think again. BlackRock owns ~75% of T, VZ, and TMUS. How is it possible Stankey is still CEO after the historic TMUS, DTV, and TWD blunders? Because Stankey doesn’t work for T, he works for BlackRock (“the... — read more
“If we want to lead…
it’s critically important that we stay focused on growing the right way and removing costs from our business”. From Stank hole email this AM. Guess what “cost” largely is. Got a mirror?
RTO: a massive failure
Well, we have dropped like a rock since the initial RTO 3x and are plumbing new lows with 5x. All the academics and studies are saying it’s a failure. The future workplace is remote. This is just the last gasps of a dying high cost business model. I... — read more

Working at AT&T is like watching a dog chase its tail
We start one project, abandon it halfway, and jump into the next shiny thing. Management can’t commit to a direction for more than a week. It’s a miracle anything gets done.

AT&T is turning into a joke
Everybody is laughing at us and at this leadership team that clearly has no idea what it’s doing. I can’t wait to leave so I can laugh too, because right now all I can do is cry at what this place has become.
