Seeing some interesting information in the new system. Also the e link report is interesting as well.
What’s the diff between N2 and N3?
Will this cover the surrounding areas? Richardson and Irving?
Do we believe this will happen early in the year ahead of performance reviews rather than late in the year?
Dallas is a highly competitive job market, with att.jobs consistently listing 100-200 level 2 management positions since the RTO, and the trend is expected to escalate with the next wave. Prospective candidates at the management level are hesitant to accept positions here due to the offered pay, particularly given the current state of the economy.
The GEO zones are not based on cost of living.
They are based on cost of labor.
If it’s hard to find qualified people in a particular place the go zone higher to entice people to move there.
Congrats to the Dallas folks. I still don’t understand why Atlanta is still an N2 with a much higher cost of living than Dallas and a higher labor rate overall. Atlanta is now tech hubs for Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Cisco and many many others. Wages are a lot higher anywhere you go here. Verizon, TMo, Home Depot, pretty much any place you go will net you at least a $30k increase in annual salary if not more. Which is why I just accepted an offer making $52k more per year than I make here. See ya T.
Houston already being N3 and not Dallas is very puzzling.
“Geo zones are not cost of living based. They are cost of labor based.”
This is correct. Also, they claim that the area has to see consistent increases in labor rates over x number of years to be able to make a Geozone change.
If geo zones are cost of labor based why the hack isn't CA being levelled up to a N4. Similarly, with all the tech industries in Atlanta are we to assume it goes from a N2 zone to a N3 as well? Particularly since Dallas AND Atlanta are appointed as the 2 major hubs
Geo zones are not cost of living based. They are cost of labor based.
I thought geo zones were determined by city and not by state. Houston is already a N3 zone, which is weird since cost of living between Dallas and Houston are about equal.
Dallas is the place to be!!!
Buckle up folks, 2024 is going to be a very painful year around the world due to the most powerful economies facing hard times. Layoffs will be massive, cost of living will remain unchanged and good paying jobs will be difficult to find! People that are laid off will have to resort to working 2 part-time jobs plus in order to barely get by!
Area managers and above are overpaid and fleecing T. They don’t do actual work, take credit for the work of others, steal ideas, get paid to train and get certified on things they know nothing about.
Yes, effective in mid-January, not yet announced.
Any other hubs moving geo zones or just Dallas giving themselves a big fat raise?
Sandbar’s HR VP made an ‘hot off the press’ announcement that TX was moving up and CA was staying.
‘Tis all politics folks..
Won’t catch me moving to the big D.
Don't mess with Texas!
People on the Titanic discussing what’s for dinner next week….probably the wrong focus folks😂
They really want y’all to move to Dallas.
Los Ángeles should be made an N4 before Dallas becomes an N3
Only that is was definitely announced during Chris S’s meeting by HR.
They in 2024
It would make sense with skyrocketing inflation. Many making the most money in their lives yet are barely making it. Buying power has been decimated in the last three years.
SVPChris Sambar spread this rumor at the last Town Hall. He might know something we don't ya big dummi
no, but sounds like a bit of carrot after the stick.
