I quit last year, should I still expect a bonus for the months I worked in 2024? It has not come yet.

Does anyone know is there a requirement for number of direct reports to be a GM? I have been seeing directors with 1 or no direct reports. I have even seen AVP reporting to AVP. Im wandering if we will see more reductions coming.

It’s hilarious the comments praising getting rid of DEI. Meanwhile, ageism is causing AT&T to get rid of older workers. Worried about the wrong thing. You want diversity in your workplace because it ensures you’ll be treated fairly as an older... — read more

AVP down have no control, just a puppet with their own jobs hanging over their heads. C Suite needs to wake up that perhaps the cuts need to be at their level forfeit their bonus and deny a pay raise. Let’s share the pain.

I've heard this, or a slight variation, several times over the years. Can anyone shed a little light on what this actually means? Is this a revenue producing effort, or just more busy work? Anyone ever hear a customer say they love AT&T for their... — read more

Stop blaming everyone else for everything wrong with your lives. It’s so frigg1n’ tiring. Just try to be nicer. You’ll feel better and so will others. It ain’t that difficult.

Well that’s that. End of “employee appreciation week” not a word from John. Where’s the acknowledgment from the “leadership”? He really hates us all. E&O brothers and sisters, do you feel appreciated?

No more Chief Diversity Officer, no more race based scholarships and career opportunities, no more corporate sponsorships that don't align with core business strategies, Turn Up the Love campaign terminated, no more DEI trainings, pronoun pins... — read more

Why do they keep emailing us about this stuff? Why have an appreciation week when you’re in the middle of planning on laying of 10-20% of employees?

Watch out for folks who steal your credit and climb the ladder off your hard work. Be wary of managers who make empty promises. Watch for those who point fingers at you when they’ve messed things up themselves. Avoid leaders who can’t lead. Beware... — read more 

A lot of talk this week about people living personal sh*t permanently at drop in open desks and everyone wanting to avoid conflict. I purposely picked a spot this morning where someone left pictures and personal items and threw them in the trash and... — read more

Happening in next month. What would you ask?

The company has made it very clear that we only get credit for working when we are in the office - AiS (A-s in Seat). After being in the office for 8+ hours, why is anyone going home and working when you are not receiving credit for this work? If... — read more

about people leaving stuff on desks to “save” or “claim” a seat, you are a big part of the problem. Understood, most rational people want to avoid conflict. But when you say nothing, and do not challenge or report this, you are enabling the practice... — read more

We need assigned seats. This is boiling to a head. Utterly ridiculous that the requirement is 5 days but there are no assigned seats. I just want to go to work, do my job, have a consistent place to sit and work while I do my job, and then go home... — read more

My AVP is so stupid, and probably only got the job by kissing people's a-s. His only skill is cracking stupid jokes and using corny phrases. Also avoided RTO for a year.

When they moved legacy BellSouth employees paydays to the 5th and 20th (as opposed to the 1st and 15th), the missing week of pay was supposed to be tacked on to your final paycheck, whenever that would be. Is that happening or has it been... — read more
