If a technology company like ATT isn't developing its own software, why can't the other roles be out source and rebadfe like this too? Or is that what at the COR store employees have been freaking out about?

This is an AT&T layoff board. This conversation should be placed on the IBM board.

“Cybersecurity is so important to our customers that AT&T gave that business unit away. Why are we surprised?”
Why not? Cybersecurity and CSO already gave all our customer data away several years ago.

Between support calls they can scam old ladies out of Target gift cards.

Oh no, this is not good. IBM US SMEs (ex ATT Employees) were holding these Apps afloat and hand holding IBM offshore Dev Teams.

Good luck for them trying to figure out how all those apps work with Datkit. All the Datakit SMEs are gone.

How despicable it is to rebadge people to ScamDocs. T doesn’t have to pay severance and ScamDocs will lay you off within few months, also w/o severance. If you refuse to rebadge you are out of luck since you won’t even qualify for unemployment. Get lost in he-l Stankey and Legg.

At least your decades of experience involve critical industry skills in demand in the marketplace. You can land a new job tomorrow!

Some of these L-T systems date back to pre-divestiture. Not exactly the newest technology. I thought these Indians are young, and know the latest technology, not the legacy stuff like COBOL, ASSEMBLER, etc.

Good luck with Habib handling those!

Another great Stink!

“Outsourced to IBM, laid off ATT employees. Outsourced IBM outsourced employees to Amdocs India. That is absolutely hilarious.”

Recap. India to celebrate tonight with a banquet of party foods in honor of stupid American company AT&T handing them jobs instead of serving people of color.
Same old same old. A lot of talk out the a-s and jobs go overseas instead of to local communities. Thanks Legg. History knew it could count on you to earn your place in the hall of SHAM a lama ding do-g.

Then they’ll say they can’t support apps created in 1984 so we’ll be left hanging!

Will this be another re-badge situation with SCAM-DOCS? Because if i’m being rebadged and not getting laid off without severance, I WILL NOT SIGN YOUR Fing AGREEMENT!!!
T does not get to wave a magic wand over my head and tell me I am now an employee of another company. DO NOT let them snowball you into thinking you have to accept employment at a SCAM-DOCS.

If on the other hand I will be laid off because my app is going to Scam-Docs, then F You to the 10th power T. Pay me fast so I can leave skid marks. I will leave a steamer on the chair right NOW if that is what Jeremey tells me!!
