Thread regarding CenturyLink layoffs

Qwest was the straw that broke the camels back. Entire jobs were created that we were perfectly fine without, but the antiquated management couldn’t let go of the bell core processes and systems that doubled the time to get anything done, and crushed morale. Rumor is that is why Karen Puckett left, she dared to speak against what was happening with the merger, and out you go, nothing but yes men. That is also when the focus was only on tracking everything they could in the name of productivity, when there really is no way to measure the revenue lost by shoddy work and rushing out on customers. Records have gone by the wayside as many have given up with the unreasonable expectations and lack of experience people to help the younger.

Our executive leadership was a little too busy trying to make the company "diverse" and ramming their social agenda down our throats to worry about where the telecom industry was going when they rolled out the Prism boondoggle. Everyone tried to tell them that the copper plant was too neglected to support Prism, and that it has already failed with other LECs, but it was like talking to the hand in the 'speak non evil" corporate environment they created. They like hearing their own voices chattering their blind nonsense in meeting rooms, board rooms, and seminars, and they punish any voices of dissent. Yes, every telecom indicator was shouting at them that streaming services was the wave of the future as they developed Prism, but you don't tell anything to progressive corporate autocrats. You just stay quiet and shake your head up and down with the rest of the bobble-heads when they speak.

Just stating that before IT and Cyber farms the Old copper was on the right track in US West. Then the quick buck quick fix companies came in and sold assets like Coin, Dex Real Estate laif of 10,000's of Employees.

Yet they blame the Unions for all of their woes.

How many Cyber Centers are functioning now, how about the Server Farms, we sure knocked Comcast out of the park with Prism.

Now they are trying to sell off the Network plant and spilt the Back Haul Fiber away from it for just access and Services for Internet and Business.

Yet I see the same Limp wristed people causing this stuff running the show and the lackeys here condemning the Union for holding together a Network with Bailing Wire and Duct tape out of pride for what used to be.

So no not bored, more p-ss-d that it was let go and more p-ss-d the Lackeys are here trying to justify their existence and get their Bonus from their Bosses for reporting how they have caused dissention on a message board.

Yes and Qwest was in such good shape before the so called merger that $10,000,000,000 debt and keeping all their management and practices started the hole in this boat

Yawn, you already posted this in a thread. Must be bored?
