You all say that Windstream’s out of money, we sure are partying it up going to Braves games, bars, and getting to stay at wonderful hotels all on the company dime. A lot of us don’t even live far away. Life is good with a company card and getting to expense it. I guess all of us in Retail & Marketing & Channel Support are untouchable. Nice commission checks too. We shift customers around a lot, have nice spiffs like giving away Yetis and big credits to customers. WS is a monopoly so they’d go online anyways. Oh well we can enjoy while it lasts!
Windstream doesn't even know half their enterprise customers circuit path. Not sure what kind of software power house bologna they making people believe. God forbid you have a VLS circuit and it stops working. It's only gonna get worse the more people they fire. Lol
@3jhm, that’s bull. Have you seen how many forum pages this site has - one for every major company in the world? There are probably thousands of employees sharing all kinds of work-related info right now, and no one is chasing any of them.
Gotta be careful with that union talk, junior, they monitor this site and it is not anonymous…just saying…
ACO got hit hard.
It's ridiculous. I'm non-union, but we need to strike. Enough us enough
Mostly ENT which they are desperately trying to wind down or sell off. A few IT workers that refused to update their skillset.
Best Voip and Data people either left or got fired 5 years ago. TT isn't worried about karma he lives in a gated community surrounded by his millions. He's probably stock piling money because he knows this job is his last job and just gonna yolo off into the sunset. He knows as well as everyone what he did and I can't imagine any other company could look at his resume of "success" and hire him after he's done at windstream
End of 3rd quarter. We're positioning for a strong finish. Just keep working hard.
Good ol TT. Renew employment contract right before bankruptcy, get millions in "motivational bonuses" because bankruptcy is hard.
Karma gonna get you Tony.
Here’s some common sense advice-if you have a new and better job lined up, accept it, turn in your notice and never look back. That’s known as making a positive change.
What su-ks is having another job lined up and not making the layoff cut. Unfortunate.
I know the windstream enterprise side got hit hard today. Not sure if the Kinetic side got it as well or not.... Been told to better be ready to work various roles and take on more work, for same pay of course.
Funny how last town hall made it seem like things were all this, and all that. Powerhouse blah blah. TT and the other sc-m bags can enjoy their bonuses and fancy holiday trips. Some great people got let go today and it's a shame
No one is safe, they let go of some of the best voip and data people in the nocs, you better believe they can get rid of you.
Nobody is safe. Period.
TT & his cronies will make the books look great for their bonus. Cutting heads is the fastest way to cut expenses.
Apparently big data got hit hard, christina C's house was shuffled. Cost savings due to customer attrition. Too much fear mongering. Is anyone really safe anymore?
Some IT positions got hit.
We haven't heard of anyone in kinetic residential.
Any update on which depts were affected?
Shuffling the deck chairs again on the WS Titanic.
All over, and there is some sort of reorg happening its crazy over in TT land
Where?
