Besides people in positions considered management are very clueless.I mean this is contractor type ,engineering type,Actual managers.First all you need to see on here is employees who barely go to office or interact with anyone asking if there’s gonna be a strike still.Then you go in asking actually direct managers at all levels questions but they cannot answer anything.Then there is the group that won’t answer or make any decisions at all because they are either clueless or scared.My God company is such a disaster.Bad cell coverage losing customers left and right in all lines of business.I am glad I am at the end of it all ,I am also glad that I was never management as bad as the Union contracts may get over the years at least I can say as associates we have a clue starting to think the people in field are only ones floating the company anymore.Just rif all nonunion employees at this point let AI be my managers

I agree, most managers are just yes men and women. Or, they have a work around or know how to troubleshoot an old system like Omni. Most managers, especially senior managers and directors are useless at this point. Just let AI micromanage us to death.
