The whole point of the nine-hub-relocation cr-p is to force people to quit. It doesn't take a genius to figure out it will work since the majority of people can't just pick their lives up and move wherever they want. So why are we then still having layoffs? Is the relocation not coming soon enough for Stankey or what?

The premise is all wrong. Nobody will be forced to quit. Either relocate or get laid off and collect severance pay. Layoffs are necessary for the company to get rid of employees.
There does seem to be this advocacy that employees should quit and save the company severance costs for some reason. Hm'mm.
If you want to go down the rabbit hole...RTO is being run by Blackrock who owns most of the downtown corporate real-estate in these major cities. COVID is destroying their values and now they are leveraging their relationships with MAJOR Banks to reverse this trend and get people back into the property they own. THIS is what is going on....read up on it.
“Funny, we were the ones promoting WFH and selling the tools companies need for it.”
Then many became major abusers of the policy.
Hub initiative aims primarily at management. Surplus focuses on craft.
Funny, we were the ones promoting WFH and selling the tools companies need for it. I'll tell you this guys, I don't care what it's all about anymore, I just want that severance and leave.
WFH was destroying major cities. Destroying major cities reduces Att’s enterprise revenue. Hence we don’t like wfh it hurts our bottom line.
I know the answer. Just forcing everyone back to the office fills every desk and then some. They have to layoff in hub cities to make room
Because 30% of the company is going to be let go.
To shed massive dead weight.
Hubs apply mostly to non-sales roles. Surplus sales orgs and hub/relocate roles in non-sales seems to be formula
