Thread regarding Altice USA (Cablevision) layoffs

Altice USA to close Bethpage facility, CUT 98 JOBS !!!

Nonmanagement Altice employees will be able to work for USTC if they have a good-service record and can work in New Jersey, Altice said. Those in management must apply for jobs with USTC.

Altice said all of the affected workers will receive severance, even if they join USTC. Eleven are expected to retire

As usual..... MORE GOOD NEWS. And I can't wait what tomorrow will bring. I keep asking myself WHO'S NEXT?

ATS is moving forward. The future for all remaining in the workforce has been signed, sealed and soon-to-be delivered.

Ninety-eight employees, and who knows how long they've worked for CABLEVISION. And like every employee reading this catastrophe, MANY of those former employees had hoped to end their careers with CABLEVISION. And POOF.... like magic... all gone.

Sure they received some severance. And that severance should help them survive for the next..... ????

Their search for new employment begins. Who knows what is available out there. Perhaps McDonalds would be a decent starting point. Perhaps the misses would need to chip in. Maybe that college fund for the children would have to be reconsidered. What is going on in the minds with those 98 FORMER, unemployed workers?

But hey..... no big deal. It can't happen to you. That was their decision to work in the warehouse. Not yours. They should've joined field service. The world isn't coming to an end. They'll survive. Why make a mountain out of a mold? That's their tough luck.

They do have the choice to join USTC (IF they qualify) and travel from Long Island to Edison, New Jersey. Only a few miles away. So it isn't like they weren't given other options. I mean... come on.

You don't see me crying for them, do ya?

So I'm sticking with the ATS good guys and end my militant ways. I'm siding with ATS, who see no wrong in all they do. I'm hanging with the winners and not the losers.

GO-GO Altice. Hooray for ATS.

Life is good.... for me. Life is good for you.

It happened to them. Didn't happen to me.

HA-HA.

How's that, management. Now I'm on your side. I've seen the light. I've changed and reconfigured my illogical thought patterns. I've turning to be dynamic and not static. I've become PRO MANAGEMENT. And it feels good. I totally understand how it feels to TAKE, TAKE, TAKE.... and never GIVE, GIVE, GIVE.

The next time I eat in a restaurant....I'M NOT TIPPING THE DAMN WAITER !! He's lucky to have a job!

How's that? Can I hang with you guys? Am I cool? Do I pass the test?

Can I get a shoutout?

Can I get an AMEN from somebody out there?

Are we friends, yet?

With the exception of Altice management, everyone is prone to make a mistake sometimes.

Really HR, that's why we have half stocked tackled boxes and being forced to put garbage/antiquated equipment in customers homes. We don't have zip ties, 2way splitters, unbalanced 3way splitters, no commercial pamphlets, etc, shall I go on. Altice doesn't care about its customers, only lowering the cost per subscriber to next to zero dollars per month, regardless of how many customers they loss. This trusted partner only helps perpetuate ALTICE'S endless greed. Get the hell off this site with your BS

Amen! Obee yes we are friends now. Now you finally get it.

“This partnership with our local and trusted warehousing partner will provide for superior and responsive warehouse services for Altice, so that we can maintain best-in-class service for our customers,”

See there? it's all about being the best. It's not about you or the employees you cry for. It's business.

Unions can't do anything but take your money. Glad to have you aboard.

Altice USA outsourcing warehousing

Altice USA is outsourcing warehousing in a move that will mean eliminating 87 jobs at its Bethpage headquarters, although the firm says it is offering employees jobs at the new site.

The firm, which plans to close the warehouse in Bethpage by June 21, is partnering with USTC to provide warehouse services, primarily at its Edison, NJ, location.

The company said an additional 11 people in its warehousing operation are retiring.

The warehouse is stocked with equipment such as cable boxes and other inventory for customers.

Altice said Bethpage non-management employees in good standing who are affected by this move will be given the opportunity to transition to USTC with no gap in employment.

All employees, whether they transition to USTC or not will receive severance.

Altice USA has customers in Connecticut, New Jersey and New York throughout the tristate area.

USTC’s parent company has been the warehousing company for Altice globally.

“This partnership with our local and trusted warehousing partner will provide for superior and responsive warehouse services for Altice, so that we can maintain best-in-class service for our customers,” Lisa Anselmo, an Altice USA spokeswoman, said.

USTC will store the inventory, although Altice USA itself will continue to distribute and deploy it.

“Altice USA continues to accelerate its efforts to deliver excellent service to our Optimum customers in this competitive market,” Anselmo said, “and on this front, we have recently rolled out higher broadband speeds, started building a next-generation fiber network and more.”
