@1ifn+1pejAzyc, your role will be picked up by some "Rajesh" guy in India.
I drive 30 miles w/ traffic = 60+ minutes *2xs per day x 3x/week. No one cares. Do what's best for you and your family.
"I refused to drive 60 miles one-way to be at an office where no one I know works. My letter said the company was eliminating my position. However, I am the development manager of a team of 110+."
This was a needed layoff if you unwilling to follow corporate policy. You should have started collaborating with onsite coworkers at your designated physical location. What kind of example were you setting for your team?
Yes, I was notified on 10/23/2023 that I would be let go on 11/06/2023. I refused to drive 60 miles one-way to be at an office where no one I know works. My letter said the company was eliminating my position. However, I am the development manager of a team of 110+.
DEG, Air Pressure, etc. Was wondering when the smaller Network orgs workloads would be affected with the fiber build eliminating work content.

DANG DOG!
This round will only be the beginning. Buckle up, folks!
Managers fired again reckon.
"Letter completely disagrees with all their rhetoric about collaboration or refusing to move and instead says "job was eliminated because they did not lose enough people because of attrition and additional reductions were necessary".'
No surprise -- we all knew its all about a layoff. However, that verbiage works out better for you with regard to unemployment. My guess is anything that indicates your refusal to do something that was policy could jeopardize full unemployment benefits.
confirmed and under Legg. Part of wave 1 "refused to relocate" letter.

So basically more lies from the company and this was simply layoff disguised as RTO...
confirmed Rao org too
"First line call center manager in Tustin CA was laid off today. Top performer. Reps had meetings with management. We were given general information that the company is not doing well and to expect consolidations. He was the lowest senior in office."
Ridiculous that a top performer was let go because he had the lowest seniority. This company does not value merit, just bureaucracy.

I got a letter this morning. My job has been permanently eliminated, effective immediately. Alliance/ACC channels.
— thought the Alliance channel was growing with all the movement to third-party, solution providers, etc.
Ought to send notices to DEG techs park in parking lot
Employed with no purpose

Will Stankey keep Jeremy Legg with his basket weaving degree? This guy is a slap in the face to anyone working at at&t with a STEM sheepskin!
i cant believe they can do that.
I am declining relo and getting a letter this week, have not yet received as of 3:45pm EST.
You’re not the first and DEFINITELY not the last!
We will ALL be out the door eventually!
“ I already know there is no life after working at the bell system.”
This is too far to swing in one direction. Don’t let the corporate machine break you.
Don't post in data mining threads.
Shame on me, thought I was a protected species. I was a loyal Stankey bootlicker, on great terms with my manager and his superiors. Was totally blindsided, kinda like in the movie Goodfellas when Paulie gave Henry Hill about $5K, then told Henry he had to turn his back. What a kick in the head! I'm done, stick a fork in me, this company was my everything. I already know there is no life after working at the bell system.
anyone who tries to visit this site on company equipment should be fired for being re--rded.
For those who got the notice, was this due to non-compliance or another reason?
Confirmed - Bootlicker Townes org.
LEGG IS A LOSER!
Is this related to Wave 1 exits?
Off payroll by 11/1 or 12/1.
confirmed and they are trying to suppress outreach as confirmed the layoff page not being available on multiple sites. IT and Marketing will be hit hard. Network to be streamlined
Everyone is in Legg be more specific what job titles have been affected
No one should be surprised by this round. It was known to be coming for months.
Co firmed, knew it was coming due to relo decline.
CAN THEY DO THAT?
Confirmed. Legg
Confirmed. Those impacted on our team got calls and formal email notification this morning.
Confirmed in Legg’s org.
