I should’ve left when they closed my office and forced us to Dallas 3x/week but offered severance at the time.

This a Layoff Site. It is not a RTO site. RTO is standard in most Fortune 500 companies and in Federal Offices.

It’s been sleeting for a few hours here in the Mid Atlantic/Northeast and will continue. “Mighty” “leadership” cancelled all their travels for the day, but expect all their workers to travel and be on time. This all while it continues to come down... — read more 

Elon has shown the way to Corpos , that the easiest way to shed undesirables is with a carrot of leave and get some money .. or wait and get some unemployment. I think T and other corporations looking to shed, will run the math on severance + early... — read more 

Rumors on the internets abound regarding AT&T big announcements on Friday. Is it a layoff? Is it Starlink compatibility? Is it Stankey retirement? People here must know. Spill the T tea!

… AT&T is selling services to consumers and businesses at a premium price with an iron clad guarantee (sarcasm) that are not good enough for employees to use to do their jobs. So to lay it out there another way … T: Mr/Mrs Customer you need these... — read more 

Has anyone received it this week or recently was told that it’s coming this Friday? Is everyone that is not in the hub affected? For those who’ve received the letter, can you share the content? I mean was it as simple as your new workplace is xxxxx... — read more 

What is your level, salary band, and current salary? Either real numbers or percentage? For example, if your salary band is 1-100/yr and you are at 70/yr, you'd be at 70%.

Our org's SVP was nice enough to let us know, during his EOY meeting, that there will be fewer of us still working at T in 2025 than there were in 2024. So the surpluses are coming. Just curious what the likelihood of a severance package would be... — read more 

Forced to retire after 28 years as a second line management employee. Am I receiving a team award on March 6th? Or is that thrown out since I had to "retire"? Thanks

Title says it all.

TPG Private Equity Fund Telecom Guy. The barbarians are at the gates. 90% of current jobs will either be gone or offshored to India.

in terms of layoffs or VTP offers in March? Is T going to follow the lead of the federal government and other companies offering their employees a chance to leave on their own terms with a sizable check in-hand? I would love to see this cuz there... — read more 

I never imagined that my role as a director at AT&T would place me at the crossroads of personal conviction and corporate obligation, but here I am, caught in a maelstrom of conflicting loyalties, expectations, and my own sense of justice. Every... — read more 

Too smart for climbing the ATT ladder or just didn't fit the mold of those corporate shamux. Did my job in about 15-25 hours per week for years. Had outside work going as well. ATT was steady paycheck and benes for the family. Saved and spent much... — read more 

Texas is amazing thanks to Republican Senator Ted Cruz and Trump. Republicans are clearly doing a lot for our fiber strategy by giving more money to T's competitors. Municipal broadband networks and fiber networks in general could get less funding... — read more 

Leaders say there is flexibility in the RTO mandate -but nothing has been defined. What would be considered “flexible” to allow to telecommute for a day? Such as - home repair, small child home because school is closed, doctor appointment and doesn’t... — read more 

Word going around that many offices are going to be closed this year. One office slated for closure in the 2nd quarter is Bloomington Minnesota.

Say goodbye to Arlington Heights. Letters to come this summer to report to a new location or Adios!

What dollar amount is everyone receiving for connection awards?

Being chosen for this role has been a financial bo-m for me. Increased bonuses, a salary I never dreamed of and more stock options than I ever imagined. I used to be an L2 like most of you, so how did I get here? I took advantage of the incompetence... — read more 

Our CEO is nothing more than Al “Chainsaw” Dunlap, cutting how way to “success”. Asking CEO defenders tell me one thing he’s done that led the market or was cutting edge?

I thought that as time went by, I'd get used to going to the office again. I was wrong. Instead of getting easier as the weeks pass, it's getting worse and worse. I'm growing more and more frustrated and angry, especially knowing there's no good... — read more

There is a section of the call center i work in that is reserved for RTO. Every time I pass management is having a great time talking amongst each other. Yeah I can see the argument of how productivity plummeted.

I have not seen it discussed it discussed but does anyone know what the letter says? What is the time frame if we are unable to comply with 5 days/wk. Is there severance offered?

Floors 34 and 35 are done and completed at 208 S Akard. They are open access but have a few teams moving up there. Plenty of huddle rooms, personal cubes and enclosed cubicles for phone calls.

… as most employees prefer a hybrid work arrangement, citing the benefits of flexibility and work-life balance.

I’m hearing all of Cheryl Choy’s NP&E teams, outside of Dallas, are getting letters this week mandating their job is in Dallas, and they must move by EOY 2025 to keep their job. Anyone else hearing this?

Hi - I left with 25 years of service, and want to hear from our craft friends if CWA's benefits are worth coming back to T for. I could do 3-4 years as craft and call it a career. Curious how badly the Stink is ruining the Union benefits.

I hope they enjoy the couch and floor at work.
