AT&T last week made more cuts.
One anonymous contributor on thelayoff.com wrote: “I spent 20 years with AT&T. They called all engineering staff into the board room and we were told at 9:05am – your jobs as you know them no longer exist”.
“We were then given our paperwork. Told to be at an hr appointment with someone we didn’t know and told of our payout. Most of us had spent 20++ years there and were just about to enter retirement.”
Others took to the website to find out if their own jobs were in jeopardy, questioning whether the layoffs will extend to their own groups.
Some took to twitter and compared this ATT incident to that of the past where thousands were let go slowly over the year.
