Are any L2s getting relief packages? What are some of the financial details?

With the L3 and L4 layoffs done, have we heard when L2s might be next?

We’ve all had it. Forced return-to-work policies that disrupt our lives for no reason. Being scrutinized based on feelings instead of facts. Unrealistic targets set by bad data. Policies that drag down productivity instead of supporting... — read more

The data is out there folks. This is why AT&T is the follower and never the leader. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4ec_yZCWOCY

As a cost cutting measure will surplus packages be reduced in 2025 for management employees?

Company isn’t competent enough to properly track presence. Tired of being questioned because they are incompetent.

Culture & Inclusion…. will work as well as our CEO’s personal rebranding effort.

Sure they want attrition, but the amount of people I've seen arriving late and leaving early has ruined it for the rest of us who are putting in the time. I realize most of us are less productive in the office, space is limited and many don't have... — read more 

AT&T should increase efforts to remove these employees who make a minimal contribution and in doing so encourage others to quiet quit through either passive or active means. We've lost so many truly productive contributors over the past few years. We... — read more

Retired now but log in occasionally. Lots of layoff and relo chatter. Just wondering if any of that has impacted management employees (L1,L2,L3) in Milwaukee area. ???

That will REALLY show them. The company may never recover from your absence. The stock price will likely plummet. Everyone will talk for 50 years about the terrible toll that was taken on the company due to you getting fired because you would not... — read more 

If they want me back to office 5 days a week, I will fully respect office hours. No more overtime, availability at all times of day and in the evenings, and definitely no extra effort.

If you are in a hub location you get coffee, soft drinks, and food. If you outside of a hub you are lucky to get toilet paper, trash pickup, and hand soap. People in both hub and non hub locations get treated poorly though.

Our HRAVP leaders tell us we need to start coming in 5 days and work our full 8 hours in addition to doing 4 store visits a month because we were the worst team on the presence report. Only then to be told by our VP that we can have a flexible... — read more
