Topics regarding layoffs at AT&T

RTO is a layoff and nothing else

Don’t be fooled. Hours are way down on average, productivity measures have plummeted over 30%. You don’t have assigned space. If the intention of RTO was honest you wouldn’t see these things happen. They want you to leave. Do not move your family for... — read more

Most vulenrable organization
