Terrible Senior Leadership

Pros

Most employees are bonus eligible. Discounts on cell service and internet if you are in footprint. There are a few good people who work here.

Cons

Benefits/health insurance seem to get worse each year. Data can be a mess and in multiple platforms that can't be tied together easily. It seems nobody takes ownership of platforms/programs/etc. Senior leadership has their head up their ... Says employees are important, but acts show otherwise.

Pros

It used to be a really great company, under the past CEOs

Cons

The company has a history of continuous layoffs. They will tell you that you can work from home 2 days per week, then tell you that you have to come into the office 5 days per week 2 months later. It's a continuous up and down, with opposing directions every 2-3 months. They are constantly changing direction and there is no stability or level of confidence in your employment at this company. Forget about planning to buy a car, home, or anything else unless you can pay cash or you are assured you can find a job when they lay you off because eventually, they will. Or they will try and force you to quit when you are costing them too much to keep around. Horribly, unstable, erratic company to work for

Pros

Free coffee and that’s all

Cons

They make sweeping decisions for the entire workforce that could really put some employees in an awful position, but they only care about their bottom line, so all employees are expendable. They pretended they believed in a hybrid work model, allowed people to move around the country during covid, and they are now forcing everyone back to the office. But not to the office they were before. No - they are making everyone move to Dallas or Atlanta. And if that doesn’t work for you or your family? Bye! They are making employees pay for parking so the city of Dallas benefits from the parking garage expense. They keep cost of food high in the cafeteria so surrounding restaurants profit off of employees. Let’s be real. They spent millions on the “discovery district” and need to fulfill their commitment to the city of Dallas to drive business, so they have to make everyone go in. They timed their employee satisfaction survey to close the week before they announced the return to the office. The return to office effort is just a force reduction exercise and everyone knows it. Additionally, the CEO is a curmudgeonly dude who pretends to be care about diversity but look at upper management and tell me that’s true. Finally, AT&T doesn’t care about you, person who is considering this place of employment. They will capitalize on the skills you bring, and then boot you for some reason they will make up. Maybe you’ll get some money on your way out, but I wouldn’t count on it.
