@1q0 nah, you’re full of cr-p.
@1q0 no one has job security. The economy is cr-p, unemployment is at post-Covid high, gas prices are getting up there, companies are laying off tens of thousands of people. We are not special.
@1nt or maybe it was in the contract and I actually know and just warning people bc they think they have job security.
@1dp so you basically came here to spread rumors because you’re sad & miserable? Got it!
What’s funny is people at Airymom think they are safe. You do realize they are doing this operational change to gauge workload and who is drinking the Kool aid so they can get rid of them before the close
@OP “ Crown Castle is implementing a significant restructuring, including cutting 20% of its tower and corporate workforce (approximately 750+ jobs) to be finalized in early 2026 and into 2027, driven by a $3.5 billion contractual default by Dish Wireless. The layoffs are part of a broader strategy to lower expenses, reduce capital expenditures, and pivot focus following fiber business sales.”
Wireless Estimator early this month so if we get thru Q4 of this year we should be ok
The PE folks will break it up and part it out like an old Buick.
When you guys say it's going to be sold, do you mean it'll go private?
@14z I wish more people would see this. They know they can grow so the best thing to do is reduce spend and consolidate so it is easier to sell. They are doing the same thing SM did when they so network
@13y The CFO won't be fired. He was brought in to do exactly what he's doing, erode enterprise value and make the company an easier target for acquisition.
How many good people have to leave before the CFO is fired? Accountability matters.
@yq Yep. I fully expect to be gone in July. The only question is whether this outsourcing will qualify us for a layoff package, or we'll just be quietly replaced.
Rest of IT and Security being outsourced in phases.
@wx as it should.
@a8 tower lighting IE notams are being outsourced to vendors for some reason kinda makes you feel uneasy.
August. After they see how many don’t return to office from remote work (Free RIF for crown—no severance) and those that support the transaction from crown’s side are gone. Legal and BS are too wrapped up in the sale to worry about it.
@dv Thats a good point. Crown won't have any more layoffs but the company that buys Crown will.
How many layoffs have we had, and how many times have we been told this? Actions speak louder than words
Next step is being sold. Maybe we’re being told the truth this time? Next layoff will be from the company that acquires Crown. We’re in the smoke and mirrors part of the game until that happens. Believe no one
Just leave. The grass is so much greener, even benefits are better dont listen to Crown HR that say Crown has the best benefits. Imagine going to work and not having to worry about getting laid off or when a sale will happen.
@az crown is a soul su-king joke now. this mgt team is trying to make it look like they are running lean with their big ego’s and false promises, but they are only trying to get theirs before they get their own pink slips. They know how weak they are and they aren’t fooling anyone. Elliott and friends will give discounts to themselves after they dismantle us.
There will always be layoffs. Quiet ones, forced attrition, even more so. Go, look for a job elsewhere. Why stay somewhere you don’t trust?
We’ve heard them say no more layoffs several times now. The reality is unless the carriers pick up the pace soon, layoffs are more than likely going to happen again this year. I would think their next move is to close offices and say people have to relocate to keep their jobs. 5 days back in office and slashing benefits would get people to quit on their own. If there is a loophole, they’re looking for it.
@OP I heard you’re next
