Pros

The only pro for me was it was close to home

Cons

1. Horrible supervisor who controlled and manipulated like a dictator. 2. schedules were never steady, constantly changing. 3. back stabbing 4. intimidation by supervisor lead to co-workers stabbing you in the back. 5. Sent us letters that on Feb 1, 2022 we would be fired if we didn't get the vaccine 6. I had great "quality" and "efficiency" numbers, only to be harassed by the supervisor simply because my "completion" numbers were not meeting the goal. BUT the entire reason I wasn't meeting that goal was because I was always being dispatched on "copper" instead of fiber jobs. Other techs were getting all fiber and was easy to hit that completion number. THIS WAS EVIL. 7, When I stood up to this bully supervisor for his manipulating, he then twisted it and said that he would "stand up to you and not let you intimidate me" UM WHAT? I WASN"T THE INTIMIDATOR OF EVERYONE, HE WAS. 8. supervisor doing everything he could to get the techs against one another, and was successful. absolutely horrible experience.

Pros

AT&T was a good place to work, in the office or remote. However, leadership often could not decide if remote was acceptable so there was times an office was required and times one could work remote - for the same job.

Cons

The constant reduction in force. It would seem that to maintain the cost of employees that there would frequently be a reduction in force and then there would be subsequent hiring and training of new employees.

Pros

You take a paycheck home.

Cons

Uncompetitive, below market rate salary. Terrible health and dental plans. The plans used to make up for the bad salary, but that went down the toilet last year when the new "gold" plan became last year's "bronze". You have to pay a big premium if you want any out of network coverage. What a joke. Company is filled with bootlickers who are too busy kissing up to Stankey to do anything about the sinking Titanic. The CEO made some legally questionable comments during the last town hall. Someone on Yammer (Viva Engage) had the courage to demand that a recording be published so that everyone could hear what John Stankey had to say about older employees. That individual was fired on the spot and was gone the next day. Company is pushing return to office as a layoff mechanism to avoid having to pay severance. They are getting rid of hub locations and telling those impacted to move to Dallas or Atlanta on very short notice and at their own expense. (Relocation costs are not covered.) You are required to respond to the letter by October, and to report to the new location by January. My advice to anyone considering working here: if you are out of college, use this company as a hopping stone to jump-start your career, but do not stick around. They will not take care of you, and they will screw you over. Company has no long-term vision and your skills will stagnate here.
