Years with the company: Over 20 Annual Salary: $130,000 Pretty sad, now that I think about it. The earning potential lost busting my azz here, could have, should have, whatever. I'm just so done.
How much do you hate it here?
Would you take a 50% pay cut and be happily employed somewhere else or stay at your current pay and be miserable at T?
Hub cities

What’s the point of RTO, again?
This pretty much sums it all: And seriously, as much as I don't like RTO and the office consolidation, if there any real chance of local teams and in person collaboration, it would make sense. But there's no plan for that. For crying out loud, my... — read more

Everybody Is To Blame
•Randall Stephenson goes on a spending spree to finance a media conglomerate even though AT&T is a self described Telegraph & Telephone company. • Randall Stephenson is forced to step down, yet still is retained for millions as an "advisor". • John... — read more
Julie Town Hall today
What was everyone's impression of Julie's townhall today? What about her response to the question in the Q&A about Dallas folks not being able to find desks? And, no mention of a Wave Two?
Stankey was in San Ramon. Please share
I was not able to attend yesterday. Any talks about RTO or closing San Ramon campus when the lease is up.
Geo Zone changes?
Geo Zone TBA March 24. What’s this about?
I find it laughable that our Leadership still
Likes to pitch the notion that ATT is a premium brand of some sorts. TMobile is not inferior and in most cases they provide a faster product due to their strategic moves. I just see ATT with no identity and simply existing. They really didn't even... — read more
Charter and Comcast have
14M wireless customers with Verizon. Tmobile and Verizon have 8M Fixed Wireless Internet customers. ATT is #3 wireless provider and the gap is widening. Can ATT grab 1/3 homes with their fiber product? Seems like every else plays chess while ATT buys... — read more

Sorry for another RTO item. Our DEI mission is to build an inclusive workforce that represents the communities we serve. Example: Hire and develop persons of color proportional to their representation in communities. But, would it also make sense to... — read more
Is at&t
a. Still bending employees arms to give their fair share to UW? b. Threatening employees who don't give? c. Threatening employees to sign up for 3 years salary for life insurance to benefit at&t NOT the employee family when the employee either active... — read more
D-mbest idea from leadership?
Direct Tv ? Time Warner? T mobil? RTO /hub strategy? My vote is time warner with the RTO /hub strategy next. Stacking those up and u see how we went from a cash heavy innovation company to a financially strapped empty shell with zero ability to... — read more
I am not moving
Why should I uproot my family for a company in which neither I nor anybody else have a career option? I move, and then I get sacked a year later regardless of how skilled and hard working I am. No way. If reorgs have had any sense beyond cutting cost... — read more
ATT Business WTAF
In over two decades of business sales, this is the most ridiculous garbage I have ever seen. It’s like they want to fail. They want to create the most toxic, most ridiculous work environment ever conceived. It doesn’t even matter if you sell now... — read more
Stankey in San Ramon - Jan 30
We heard Stankey will be in San Ramon on Tuesday, January 30. Those that attend, let us know how it goes.
A few years back I watched ATT Sycophant Employees Drink the Kool Aid and move from
Atlanta to El Segundo. Some were let go within 1-2 years. Real shady move by the company but regardless of whether you were let go or not those who moved thinking....no they weren't thinking, this is ATT and anyone putting in any effort towards this... — read more
You’re a fool if you actually move.
The long term goal is head count reduction. The offices they want us to move too are already over crowded with tons of spacing, network, and accommodation issues. Tell them no on February 9th, buy your time to get your severance package, and find... — read more

Are Any Extra PTO Days Allocated for Moving?
Are any additional days off given to cover the logistics of moving to Texas?
The Totalitarian Workplace will only continue as AT&T lags behind
Verizon and TMobile and that gap is widening. AT&T doesn't have the balance sheet strength to grow and much of their debt is backed by write offs due to DTV and TWX acquisitions. On the other hand Verizon and TMobile can grow as much of their debt is... — read more

Class action on age determination??
I think we need to organize a class action lawsuit for age discrimination. Stankey’s comments were outrageous on Baby Boomers vs Gen Z. The non hub cities have high seniority and either meeting rule of 75 or close to it . Keep in mind not long... — read more
