Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

I make more per hour with RTO as I only work seven hour days now

"so you took a pay cut when you got to WFH, or you kept all that savings?"

LOL -- You think like a boomer CEO. Was a salary reduction even offered?

If you had been keeping up with all the independent surveys and studies you would know that employees are willing to give up salary if they can WFH. Of course, the RTO AT&T implemented is a head count reduction plan, not a culture or work place improvement plan, so the C-Suite does not want to consider that optioin.

“Common sense would dictate your voluntary departure, yet here you are complaining about something you could control if you wanted to.”

I hate my life and like to blame others for my career choices.

"By the way, whose commute is 26.8 minutes? That would sure be nice. Try 90 minutes each way, if everything goes well."

I was hired as hybrid. I am not getting a raise to offset the costs of the additional days I have to go into the office now.

That might permit a quit for cause attributable to the employer. There is a big difference between WFH because of Covid-19, and WFH absent exigent circumstances.

"Was this individual initially hired as an in-office or remote employee? Having this information documented can help you make the best case in the event of a claim. If the individual was hired as a remote employee, check to see if your policy has any provisions stating that this arrangement can change in the future."

There are many ways to lower the expense of RTO. Many states provide credits for use of public transportation to and from work. Carpooling is also a good way to lower the overhead of driving and save money.

Duh. This isn’t new info.

If it is so terrible and costing you half your pay to RTO, quit so the rest of us that want to be here can keep our jobs. Thank you

Oh look someone who just started going back to the office, haha, welcome, no one cares.

If you no longer like the terms of your employment, go get another job.

The WFH was not the employees decision. The employees were told to WFH to keep the company running.

ok #DallasBound - good luck getting anywhere close to the office. If you're on these boards I'm guessing you're not an exec and don't make anywhere near the money you need to be make to get closer to an 1-hr out.

Move close to the office. Problem solved. #DallasBound

so you took a pay cut when you got to WFH, or you kept all that savings?

What audience is this intended for?

Or, put more succinctly: Duh.

That’s part of their desire impact(s)…so we have more incentive “voluntarily” leave.
