How is time in office being tracked at AT&T?
Not an AT&T employee, but I'm curious about your directive that you have to be in-office for a certain amount of hours before it counts as an in-office day. How many hours do you have to be there? How are they tracking this? Are you using badge-in... — read more
Tightening the sc--ws!
AT&T, along with many other major companies keep tightening the sc--ws. I just don't know how much more I can take. Yes, I know they are trying to weed out all the non-performers, but it's having a horrible impact on my mental health. I'm a top... — read more
Clown town

Don't Be Fooled
You have eyes in your head. You can see what all this RTO garbage is about. It's not just AT&T. Big Corp all got together and decided (at about the same time) that they were all going to do the same thing. It was also going to fall in line with new... — read more
