Indecisive leadership, slow moving
Indecisive leadership, slow moving
Work/life balance and WFH each week. Good (not great) perks and discounts on AT&T services and accessories. Great coworkers. Fun people in the San Francisco and Palo Alto tech offices.
Work is as slow as molasses. Things that would normally take a week may take years.
Most leadership has been there for 20-30 years without any intent to modernize procedures.
Very political. This is not a meritocracy.
Donation matching is very sneaky. AT&T takes donations from your check and donates it for you. They take the tax benefit.
Benefits are below par and expensive.
Severely understaffed. Staffing is incredibly difficult and slow. Phone screen to offer to hire can take 2-3 months.
California officers are treated as inferior to Plano headquarters.
Nestled in a major tech epicenter, you have a great opportunity to hire the very best talent in the Bay Area. Instead, you are building a reputation of treating skilled people like your 611 service does. The debacle with the SF office was a terrible demonstration of politics, incompetence, and inability to lead.
People couldn't leave fast enough. Two major re-orgs and two small re-orgs (in two years) later, you're worse off now than you were then. Time for some leadership retrospection.
