Thread regarding Windstream Corp. layoffs

IT Director says

So, once again on our Tuesday call, my boss, IT Director sitting out of twinsburg tells us " no worries " .

She claims she was told our group " is safe ". She claims that she talked to TT and was assured we will be ok. Think it is BS ????

“hope this miserable place goes out of business permanently.”

I hope not. A lot of people in my town are dependent on your “miserable place”. You’ve got 100s of 1000s of customers across America that don’t have much of choice besides Windstream.

Cable companies pretty much invest to meet the competition. If the telco invests in 1 Gig service, they do something similar. If the telco offers DSL over poorly maintained barbed wire, well they have higher speeds on their coax but they don’t invest in splitting nodes so the effective throughput to us is just like poor DSL. It’s the cable tv ethos.

So as you can imagine, cable s---s in Windstream towns, too.

We shovel over a billion dollars your way. You haven’t gotten raises but you still make more than average in a lot of Windstream towns.

We certainly understand your frustration with your bosses — we’re frustrated and worried, too.

We hope you survive and we hope our neighbors keep their jobs.

Why would you believe any TWB IT director or manager. They live on the koolaid. Everything will be ok they said. Nothing to worry about. Then I watched my friends get walked out. They are all full of it and can not be trusted.

Unbelievable, who is the dill h0le who keeps referencing an “IT Director out of Twinsboro”? You are native and a m0ran if think a Director level sees the big picture. They are only regurgitating the propaganda leadership is shoving down their throat. Just stop, it’s getting old! Wake up and smell the carnage!

Anyone who believes anything that comes out of TT Pie Hole is a fool. He is in it for himself and himself only. Prove me wrong.

What IT is left in Twinsburg? they have laid off so many people from this site. All of the IT went to Watson. If you not part of the layoff plans than most likely you are part of the planned layoff

No worries, he's got millions going his way. All while there are no merit increases for 3 years.

What usually happens on a Thursday before a holiday weekend?

Hoping for the best for everyone though!

I think an IT Director in Twbg is a little low on the totem pole to be talking to TT...just sayin

Stop it. We're laughing our heads off!

Let me guess, she also told your group it was 'safe' to invest in company stock last year??

TT is probably giving her some of the 'motivation bonuses' for a job well done in spreading the BS that there is nothing wrong while the company is in Chapter 11.

TT said they would win that lawsuit - but they lost.

TT said the company was doing great how many times on Stream? But it still is in Chapter 11.

TT had a 'tough time' accepting his contract renewal from the BOD - but he is doing great while his company is going to get carved up soon.

Come back on here 3 months from now and tell us the same thing.
