AT&T needs to hold their Supervisors to account

Anyone with time to complain doesn't have enough work to do. How is it possible for so many employees to boast about gaming the company and their Supervisors are unaware? You don't have an employee problem. You have weak low level managers.

The attrition based on 5 days RTO mandate

Will skyrocket, and this will surely be overdone. You already don’t have enough people to keep up the work in most groups. You think people are going to be motivated to work HARDER for you to pick up the slack as headcount plummets. This is the... — read more 

John S. You are an a*****

I’m sure this is not news, and the censors will delete this post, but it is a stark truth

Digital First… Not.

When COVID shut down buildings and employees USED OUR CONNECTIVITY PRODUCTS to not only maintain BAU but invest in automation skills and agile project management practices, we celebrated that accomplishment with the, “Yeah, hey, it’s not you it’s me”... — read more

Put your 8-hours in the office

Better start working your full 8-hours in the office or your going to be flagged on presence report and for 5-days a week. Johns quote, you need to put in a good day of work.

Good Retirement Award/Gift

Retiring soon. What did people choose for their retirement award/gift that they thought were good, high-quality items?

Dismantling temporary benefit, RTO

Posted this under a different heading earlier: This is not unique to T only. Large scale business across every industry is implementing RTO policies. They are rounding up the sheep and taking back power and control. Just look around at these posts... — read more

Relocation Assistance/Money

I know that with previous "waves" the word was that anything lower than L3/L4 wouldn't get relocation money/assistance. I'm now hearing of more people (L2) being offered relo money and program for selling existing home that they'll even buy if it... — read more 

Finally

We get to go to the office five days a week for at least eight hours a day. I have sure missed those days. Seriously. No negative comments please.

5 Days Per Week

Sanders says the executive team has been 5 days for some time and now it’s time all of you suffer from the unnecessary need to commute. She did say they would resolve the logistical issues first. You know, things like parking, office space... — read more 

5 day RTO will preceed 2025 layoffs

It's pretty clear what management is doing here with 3-day, then 5-day RTO ,it's all about squeezing the low hanging fruit of disgruntled workers to leave voluntarily , before their forced to swing the hammer of big cuts in 2025. Let's see after... — read more 

Company Morale has Never Been so Low

This is a complete train wreck. Employees respect for leadership is completely gone now. The “Culture” is that of complete toxicity. Treat us like garbage, and garbage is what you’ll get. With this latest move nobody is going above the bare minimum... — read more

Presence Report

Yes, it's a thing. Yes, we're being tracked. HR has an entire tech team that's working on PBI reports. I know several people in HR and it's all being driven by Stankey and Lee (who covers HR since Angela left). I've been with the company almost 15... — read more 

RTO mandate is the attrition tactics

They don’t care about morale and productivity. They care about getting rid of you for free. I don’t see T leadership looking to lead over a growing, robust and sound company with quality workforce and satisfied employees. All I see that they want is... — read more 

Sabrina Sanders Town Hall

What happened to the Q&A they had in the past? Very quickly covered 5 days in the office rumors (which sounds like it will be announced end of year). The town halls anymore are just to check that off as a to-do item. They don't want to answer any... — read more

Coffee badgers are getting notified.

I’m an Associate Director and had to notify one of my direct reports about not being in the office for averaging 4+ hours in the office. They were meeting the 3 days a week but not the 4+ hours. HR is sending reports to VP’s and it’s trickling down... — read more 

T is sinking with bad management choices

It’s sad but true—T keeps promoting inexperienced kids into management while those with years of experience and master’s degrees get overlooked all the time. Who thinks this is a good idea? All it’s doing is driving away the best employees. If this... — read more

5 Days RTO

Productivity and morale were circling, but just went down the drain. Good luck to T and company sycophants. THIS will be the straw that breaks the boomers backs.

Leadership please read

So to the corporate leadership of AT&T… I think the overwhelming majority of employees don’t have any issue with RTO. For those whose jobs really dictate they be in office and working collaborating with others five days also no issues but of course... — read more 

Public Sector Town Hall today

Where do you stand on automation?

Is it a way to do more and there’s plenty of work to go around, it’s the future so get on board or get run over, or do you fight it at every turn knowing the end result means you are no longer required?

Riddle me this:

I like the game of chess but I'm not very good at it because I cannot think 4, 5, or 6 moves ahead in anything. Is it possible, remotely possible, for the architects of the combination of RTO and HUB designations to have forseen the majority of... — read more

How many days for virtual workers?

If we change to 5 days a week in office, do the virtual workers have to go to office more than the 1 day month originally assigned?

I hate my job

I hate this company and everything about it. I hate being stuck here due to a cr-ppy job market. The only thing I like is that there are always layoffs so there's always a chance that I'll be able to walk away with severance. That's it. That's the... — read more
