I’ve never worked at a company that changes course as much as this one, constantly chasing whichever way the wind happens to be blowing, whether politically or technologically. One minute it’s one strategy, the next it’s the complete opposite, like nobody even remembers what they were pushing six months ago.

Has anybody here worked at AT&T? I might have a chance to make the switch, but reading through their page here makes it seem like I’d just be jumping from the frying pan into the fire. I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone with firsthand experience before I make the decision.

I know people hate the wait, but knowing something major is happening in July is much better than just coming into work one day and being served your walking papers.

Cooper-Standard Automotive Inc. plans to close its Bowling Green, Ohio plant. The facility closure is scheduled by the end of 2027. This plant manufactures sealing systems and components. These products are supplied to the automotive industry. This marks the company's second Ohio plant closure in six months.

Will be closed down.

Expect sometime in early Q3 to be announced.

Actual, truthful reviews. Too many of them paint a picture that's anything but true, so I'm guessing HR is hard at work to fix the company's image. Take a few minutes and post a real review over there, so people who're considering Oracle know what they're getting themselves into.

You make contact with the hiring manager prior to the meeting and develop some rapport, identify some people in common, only to have an unlisted 3rd party join the Meet, who is inevitably some “distinguished” tw-t that throws curveball questions about things that were only discussed among the team in the last weekly meeting, and documented in a locked Google Doc. Indians hiring Indians.

Many people post on here about where is all the work going to go with layoffs? None of this has been addressed since VSP 1.0.. We were wasting so much money of useless “projects”, meetings, reviews, slide decks, paralysis by analysis, that the thousands and thousands of people RIF’d have made no significant impact to progress. VZ is changing and those useless projects will all cease once the gutting is done. It’s unnecessary work and those doing to work will not be replaced. The end of VZ as we knew it is happening in front of us, daily. Su-ks, but that’s reality when you are up to your eyeballs in debt and only answer to analysts and shareholders.

I think revenue will continue to decline, staff numbers will decrease every year and the company might survive as a content company , cloud based with around 8k employees

It's also conceivable that content may not even save us as better products become available. If this is the case then the company will likely dissolve in around 5 years time

Thank you for your service :).

Will AI replace Dan and his leadership team? 😅

Wow. It's about time.

We are hiring and have returned to growth

BAC, JPM, C, USB. Seems like the closest competition comes from Truist.

It is incredible that Dell could hit $300 a share. Inconceivable!

To all the outstanding employees and those exploited by this company have a wonderful long weekend.

To all the executives, and their concentration camp commandants, the hr hall monitors,

You don't deserve it. When your kids cause a scene somewhere and you get exposed for your incompetence as human beings, in that moment you should realize that your work persona is fake and your perceived competence only exists inside the walls of us bank. Nobody respects you inside the company either, but they are paid to pretend.

Strong story doesn't save companies. Strong work do!

I like that and He's correct—companies survive on output, not narrative.

But that's a principle for stable times.

When the house is already on fire, "just keep working hard" starts to sound less like wisdom and more like a way to keep people holding the hose while the roof caves in. It won't save anyone.

Is there a way to disable the stupid Bny default background. Having to reset our background every 20 minutes is annoying, wish they would let us at least have windows default backgrounds at least. Who the he-l wants to look at the pillars as their background.

Why at a location like Gemco ,does the company have 2 mobile trailers with Cameras 📷 posted up in the same area, having to spy on us?

One should be enough. What are the watching? Ballast? Shutdown power?

Wow! Hope you’re blocking

Everyone check out their newest lawsuit.

Just from an ethical perspective. People who feel entitled to clean out the snack bins are demonstrating the quality of their character. It is like the wait staff test - how people treat wait staff is telling you a lot about who they are.

Or just pawns?

There is something different about Friday in Downtown Dallas. The week is nearly done, and you can feel it. The pace is still fast, but the mood is lighter.

On my way to AT&T, I notice the people around me more. The coffee cups, quick steps, quiet faces, and small signs of relief. Everyone is still moving, but Friday gives the commute a different energy.

It is not just a commute. It is a reminder that we are all showing up, pushing through, and making it to the end of another week. Friday makes the city feel more human. I am looking forward to seeing others on the commute.

Wow management wants to pull people out of class to troubleshoot issues so they can get more releases. Company has gone to sh-t and dont care about training.
