Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

town halls

Haven't seen any town halls scheduled up my management chain this year short of the Stinky stick it to the older worker one. I know people will say they are a total waste of time, and I do get that. But I do enjoy seeing them squirm around the rare questions that get through the screeners.

Are other parts of the company still having them or did mine just stop to avoid even pretending to care about employee concerns?

VP is my org will have town hall twice a year. He said plainly that taking away vacation days was disappointing and he does not agree with it. What is the point, why have more TH to answer/defend horrible policy changes?

The world has move on, Stankey is social media savvy and directing his narrative to videos only and removing negative comments. Call it deep state if you want, but the truth is highly produced and you are only to consume and not to ask questions.

Stankey townhall on #StopAsianHate was more PR to attempt to convince employees that AT&T supports diversity and it turned into a session of venting by a small group on a few incidents over hyped by the media.

Waste of time. It’s essentially all the life boats have been taken and we need you here to document the sinking!

"Training that is scheduled for 20 minutes will take 80 after you "need to restart" 4 times. "

SO TRUE! Glad it's not just me! LOL

Had a pretty serious heart attack about a year ago and my supervisor or second level could care less and didn’t even ask how I was feeling No one should have any illusions that this company cares about your well being, they probably even have an insurance policy on you

You could remove the inappropriate content from your TV services, since the 1/4 of the victims were white and the shootings were motivated by s-xual perversion.

Why pay any attention? It's all BS.
Watch them spew their BS, take all surveys, and give all positives. Mute it and take a nap. Set the phone to wake you up.
Make $$$ doing so.
Training that is scheduled for 20 minutes will take 80 after you "need to restart" 4 times.
Listen, hate to break it to you, but THEY DON'T CARE. You are nothing to them.
Nada. Nil.
Sick kids, spouse? Tough.
You ill? hahahahaha "You are expected to be here every day, on time, and ready to work. Sign here"
These are all mind games to get you to be a good sheep. "YOU MATTER" hahahahahhaah
34 yrs in...did I mention they don't care?
Nothing will change until good folks like you try to run them out of $$$.

  1. Today in my Thall -Though we told you last year many of you will be full time work from home, or only in office 1-4 days a month. — we are looking to get people back in the office in June. Oh, okay, what changes will be made to the workspace? Well, I have not heard anything about that. With it being about 60 days away I probably need to check with CRE
  1. Why did you take a 5 PTO days away? Well, that is the market trend and we need to stay competitive. Oh, really, you took 5 days away from your most loyal employees for a net loss of 2 days and a net gain of 3 to everyone else. Yep, that’s what we did
  1. I am from the TDM land. Do you expect a mass exodus at year end? We do know people are leaving and are beginning to have those conversations. We are working with our HR partners to view the demographics and understand where we may be exposed. I think this is when the VP said this is something that keeps me up at night

We have had all of ours, from McFresh on down; let me sum them up for you.

  1. Don't let the door hit you when you leave this year
  2. The stock price is down because you don't work hard enough
  3. The movie Godzilla, is going to save our year
  4. No MVO or Surplus this year

They still have them where I am at. 5th, 6th just had them.

Total waste of time with the usual lies. Main point was not to forget a minium of two objectives for SJ to be input into Quantum. They provided a llong list of acceptable ones. It is the most impotent objective of the corporation this year. More important than makinging $
