Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

Manager Lay-off

calls will start 1st full week of July, sounds like minimum impact will be 10% for some VP groups while others will see a 15-30% reduction in headcount. AVP and down have already submitted group rankings to HR even though Amplify and mid-year haven’t been covered. Two weeks then off payroll might be new norm going forward and rumors of a voluntary offer 4th quarter have been over exaggerated to say the least. From HR, “this will be very significant reduction in July.”

They are moving people up to vote so they don’t get stuck in the heard and the rest of you will get included in the lay-off. They are the leaders lol can’t say that with a straight face. Just become VPN or move to cso than you will be safe.

"Mostly targeted at White males over 40."

If you look at the demographics of senior folks with the highest composition - surprise!

I can not wrap my hear around this. Katibeh sent our org today and VP's tripled? I thought they were removing layers but VP's went from 4 to 12. Similarly like Chow. WTH?

"I thought I remember reading in a thread Juan Flores was being affected by the reorg and is retiring. Any truth to this?"

Didn't they just announce his position in the new re-org? Why would they change it a month later? I'd think if he were 'retiring' this would happen in the opposite order...

It sounds like just about every group will be included to some level but the waiting and not knowing is exhausting. I assume another surplus will happen 4th qtr then again in 2021... & 2022.... good people will lose their jobs, those that survive will be left doing more work waiting for the next round hanging onto the hope that just maybe they’ll make it to retirement

Manager here. They sent a mass email last week to have our internal project info done today.

Tuesday is Thomas Harvey townhall. Sounds like next week will be very bad.

Most AVP’s and above will survive and make more money than ever. L3 and below will feel the hardest hits!! The incompetents that are left will continue to make bad decisions and accelerate the company’s demise!!
