Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

John Stankey said (September 2023 in a meeting in St. Louis) that everyone would work out of Dallas. and Atlanta, by 2029.
👋

They'll just eventually close it down like they have countless other centers. Either move to DFW or get bent will be your options.

Bothell Brothells?!? LOL....

For those of us who use dating apps and see what's going on there, no thanks.

Brothels will make AT&T great again.

@fa The three buildings, 7, 8, and 9 are owned by T under the tax payer name Cingular Wireless. They are individual parcels.

Bothell is all washed up! REALITY!!!!!!

@ev Plano

They are moving to DALLAS. Some of you already moved from Seatlle to Dallas and we know who they are....SELLOUTS!

AT&T properties in the Bothell area were sold years ago , to Alexandria Real Estate Equities

Where are they moving?
Woodinville ?
Monroe?
Everett ?

At one time (before Stanky and the big sellout to Blackrock) SBC/Cingular/AT&T was a really good place to work. The leadership cared about the people instead of the almighty $$$$. I was proud to be a part of the company. Then the leadership change happened, and coldly and methodically the axe began to fall over and over.
People don’t matter, money matters. Stanky is cold and people are simply not of value.
They worship the all might dollar Stanky and board members. Total sell outs!”

Those days are gone for a lot of companies. Very few companies can be called without going through a menu and waiting on hold to speak to a real person. If you can even find a number to call. I remember the old SWBT when the oil market crashed and Whitacre let go of contractors and had technicians being security guards to save jobs. The expectations of a CEO are different. Toss in the technology. If you live in a fibered area how many trucks do you see after a heavy rain. No Service Emergencies and working 12-15 hours a day for 7 days a week. Lot of places an installation consists of calling in and connecting to a router. Made a lot of money when the college opened up installing phones lines. In fact if you lived in a college town the vacations were blocked during that period. Scary times….

"survey choice"

A survey that only one person filled out.

Duh, it has nothing to do with making things better for the employees. It’s all about making people quit!

we would be moving from 7 & 8, to some other location.

Some other location includes plano complete with pickleball and boating amenities. Follow the cookie crumbs.

I like that you “took a survey” to express your wishes.

That’s cute.

I moved near downtown Dallas for the job and then few months later they announced new office is about 1 hour north with traffic in 2028. Morale of story - they don't care about your thoughts and feelings nor mine. They also don't care about the 2,000 Bothell employees feelings either. Connecting changes everything.

I have never had an office location that was closer. If you move closer to the office, they just move your office to another one that adds time to your commute.

Did the survey ask the question, would you like to have dedicated space for your required 5x8 in office presence? I assume that one was left out intentionally.

survey choice on location: Tennis, golf, pickleball, or all of the above.

Lovin' it!
