Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

@ab if you love going to office so be it but respect others and their needs, work life balance and style of work.

Eat sh-t AT&T. F U Stankey. Hope the entire business crashes and burns

“ Who remembers when the 6 Sigma stuff came about….”

So you’re saying this “yellow belt” from 2014 is completely worthless then???

LOL.

Let me get back to this Workplace 2020 curriculum I’m still working on. I’m told everyone MUST be able to code.

“ And yet you stay”

You’re a huge bore.

The goal of this Stanky Regime is to reduce head count to around 100K employees. Until he gets there, nothing will change.

@am it’s funny how simple minded people think just being present in the office increases productivity. Lots of folks sitting in the office watching Netflix. The only thing RTO has done is punish the good workers. Slackers will be slackers no matter where they are sitting. The fact that the ivory tower has doubled down on RTO just proves how competent they really are at running a company into the ground instead of creating new and innovative leadership methods to grow the value of T. Who remembers when the 6 Sigma stuff came about and all the focus was on documenting the 5 w’s (aka common sense). Leadership at T leads by following trends and buzzwords. They never come up with anything new themselves. Ever…

@am go ahead and try. Put that in writing for me too. NOT GONNA HAPPEN. Productivity is DEAD. Just show up, swipe in, sit, socialize, leave. Loyalty is dead, remember? That works both ways. I’ll stick around and continue to do the bare minimum until you pay me to leave.

@am

Super cute that you pretend to believe that performance management is a core competency here. Scroll down just a bit for proof to the contrary...

OP, RTO was never about culture. The “culture” BS was nothing more than a lame attempt of the C-Suite to put lipstick on a pig. Which is a standard approach to everything for Stank and his puppets.

“8&skate it can wait is the new normal.”

Be patient. Doing the bare minimum of 40 hours will be considered in evaluations and rankings. 8&skaters have a short shelf life. T is now getting closer to 40 hours in the office for underperformers rather than just having them stay logged in for extended periods but only getting 2-3 hours of productivity.

@ab

Because performance management isn't a thing?

@ab more like the opposite. I used to get responses all hours of the day, now after 3PM it’s silence until 8am the next day. wtf are you on lol.
8&skate it can wait is the new normal. Hope you don’t need anything after 3 because you’re not gonna get it anymore.

We’ve reached this point because too many employees have taken advantage of the system, and our managers no longer have the ability to hold people accountable. The current bargaining agreements limit corrective action, leaving leadership with very few tools to address performance issues effectively.

RTO has helped improve productivity among my team. Employees who used to be ghosts after lunch when working remotely are now online and can be reached. RTO is needed and necessary.

LAME

AT&T= Futility of Repetition

It also allows predatory employees to have their victims close.

The ones in charge aren’t capable of learning a lesson……. End of story.
