How's it going there in AT&T now that it's only left with "the bottom quartile". “If you’re trying to say to people, ‘Oh, you got to work in an office,’ you’ll just get the bottom quartile of people who have no choice.”

I'm resigning. We will see how many wh-z-bang RTO sycophants line up to take the opening. I bet no one, and the work will be absorbed by those who remain...
@a3 these posts are so ignorant, you're stuck in an outdated mindset just like the leadership of AT&T
My 16 year old son could do all of your jobs. Quit crying wfh. We are tired of it. You are replaceable just like me. And over paid like me.
Why work in Telecom? Build Data centers...i built data centers as AT&T for Textron, Sun Microsystems, Oracle, TIAA-Cref, Honeywell....f telecom ...go out and build data centers for AI
Let see, stock price is continuing to drop amidst the stock buybacks; shouldn’t this help the stock price?
It seems Wall Street can smell the Stank and the incompetent decisions exuding from this leadership team. They are the epitome of bottom quartile
The good people in all generations are leaving this mess while the remaining bottom quartiles are watching youtube in the office
“ Whelp, see you on the commute!”
Boring and lazy.
I like turtles!
If you don't like going in to the office, I guess you can go work a hybrid schedule at Verizon.
Oh wait, they're doing massive layoffs. With T-Mobile soon to follow suit.
You know AT&T is going to go along with the telecom industry.
Whelp, see you on the commute!
“Top tier” people being laid off and taking a pay cut a lot these days.
@cc "Still boring."
Boring as all these whiny, crybaby anti-RTO threads.
@bv and the workforce of the future and next generation want to be in an office even less. Better adapt to attract the top talent instead of trying to force a model that does not work.
“ See you on the commute!“
Still boring.
I've never seen so many entitled whiners that don't want to come to work. It's sad that's the workforce we have today.
You are worst than the bottom quarter
I am a top performer and I am still here.
You were TOLD! 5 days a week! Get in there!
Yeah, this was the best job I've ever had until RTO.
I could do whatever I wanted during the day and still get paid.
Who wouldn't want that?
@a9 how was the golf at "corporate data centers?"
@aa you think there’s a line of people who want to work HERE? 😂😂😂 if there’s so many people lined up to work here then why haven’t they hired any and why haven’t I been replaced?
I drove across DFW back in the day with 4 Cisco 6513s in the back of my F150 for Textron back in the day!!! lol....F AT&T
@a7 It's the same person constantly spamming anti-RTO posts on a layoff board. There's a line of folks that'll happily take your cushy office job.
We built corporate data centers, if we EVER had an office while employed at AT&T it was at the customers premise...because that is the network we were building and supporting...the entire premise of "coming back to work after COVID" when you indeed never had a AT&T office for the 20 years prior was absurd.
@a5 it’s the same one person spamming the same copy pasted comments on every thread
@a3 I still do this. I just drop off my laptop at the office when I drop the kiddos for school and pick it up at the end of the day when I pick them up. Hasn’t changed anything much for me.
Eat S with the copy paste wfh comments...you may be a slug but not everyone is. I put in 70hrs a week working from home for T for 25 yrs...i supported large corporate customers and government accounts...we worked ALL THE TIME, Holidays, weekends, it didn't matter we were 24/7 RUNNING those networks....so get a life if your job is so weak that it allows you to go golfing and F the neighbors wifey.
This is exactly where our competitors want us to be. Talent leaving, bottom of the barrel joining. 5x RTO will be the end of this company
RTO has really put a damper on my productivity.
With WFH, I was actually able to focus for once. I was getting SO MUCH done. I was running errands. I was spending time with the neighbors wife. And I really started perfecting my golf game at the country club.
Now, with RTO, I barely have time for anything other than work.
Circling the drain
All the talent and knowledge has exited the company for respect and flexibility. Anyone who’s left will either be surplussed or retire soon. The company is in a very bad place because of John and his blunders and terrible RTO policy.
