Pack it up and head out. Layoffs started and more to follow. Numbers haven’t been there and new services remain in perpetual delay. Accountability is late to the party but finally arrived. Buckle up, cowboys - Dallas, Jersey and Seattle are in play so so much for hub cover. Verizon is waiting in the wings ready to scoop up talent which admittedly has dropped in the last few years. Good ones leave on their own volition and balance are average to above average Joe’s and Jane’s. You heard it here First!

@cc you nailed it, having the wireline SALs take the lead on FirstNet has been a disaster, especially in the private sector, the bloated egos who puff out their chests and tout I own the account I’m the one throat to chock if things go wrong so do as I say not only f’d up FirstNet but all of mobility as well.
@dn you funny, third net , I get it, …try harder
@ed
FirstNet is done, yes you have network priority, but sat-to-device will make FirstNet less of a value.
Been through a lot of T “leadership” over the years, Hickey..he’s a joke, but what do you expect from a guy that Walsh and Agnew who are not the sharpest tools in the shed championed.
Another innovative failure courtesy of the guys who brought you AIC. did anyone ever actually see one of our colt trucks?
@cc Hickey not the smartest guy…. he just was the liked tall boy that kept moving for the company he’s done now but made a lot of money kissing but —- not a good person
Sounds like you need a therapy dog
More like Thirdnet…or T_rdnet.
Another T cluster. Thanks to DC team.
"The NDR doesn’t know what they’re doing, pi-s poor communication is an absolute."
Run by an absolute glory hound
Pick me! Pick me! Mobility tech here, and I can promise FN is on the short list for opportunity we fumbled. It’s such a schit show. The NDR doesn’t know what they’re doing, pi-s poor communication is an absolute. And not enough assists. Makes a guy wonder if we didn’t put the federal dollars into our get out of debt fund. Wouldn’t surprise me. Not much for ethics here. Maybe the ethics at work PLE course will help 🤣
FirstNet was a worthless government largess from the beginning. What a joke! Way to go bugler!
What ki-led FirstNet is the inevitable assimilation into the at&t wireline modalities and mindset.
Could have been great but all that’s left are a few committed to serving their customers and a whole lot of baggage and wannabes living off the work of others. AT&T, where good idea go to die, Hickey will finish the transition to meaningful nothingness and worthless metrics. Welcome to Verizon.
I remember the first meeting in MT, hundreds on a call touting the next best thing since slice bread. What a joke. Another huge waste of money, just like T2R.
Firstnet was never that great. Glad someone in the company figured it out. It was a bloated division with minimal talent.
