Thread regarding Windstream Corp. layoffs

When will WIN finally fall?

Apparently, the execs at WIN are stringing out the inevitable. Even the posts here have tapered off. Some folks I still hold dear there are now saying everything is rosy. Scary adamant when talking to them. Drinking from the fountain.

Which honestly - that cannot be. I've been in too many customer meetings at my new gig to hear customers trash WIN and say they have to move away even if just to mitigate risk in their fail over plans. Not to mention comments made even if the connectivity remains solid, they don't trust any BK company WIN or not. Many customers simply cannot sign a contract with a BK company.

So WIN execs have huge payoffs to make this work over the next few months. They obviously have been good at stringing some other things along. At some point this ends even for them.

Has anyone internally been talking a roadmap into future success? Or is simply to make it to the next quarter or two when the bonus kicks in?

They’ve already fallen, however bankruptcy laws are protecting them. They’re on the clock to take back assets from Uniti otherwise the auction will be around the corner.

I’d have to think anyone who signed a contract with a Bankrupt company could come under scrutiny. Especially if
They had outages.

Everything is based on executive bonuses. I’ve spoke to a few people and what we know as Windstream as today will not exist in the future. The flag might continue to fly but only parts of the existing business will remain.

The customers will pay the price during separation of assets.
