AT&T reviews

"Everything is OK. Don't worry, you have no reason to worry about your job." Those were the words of the weekly meetings. Every week, without fail. Even as they start cutting people. Everyone is treated as a part of a formula. Actual formula they use for promotions: If you are making less than 80% of the AVERAGE person in your new position, you get a 5% raise. If you are making something like 95% to 98% of the AVERAGE you get 1% raise. And some other numbers in between. Doesn't matter if you are God's gift to AT&T or if you just barely are holding onto your job. Speaking of which, what do they do with people who aren't tech savvy (In a tech company, mind you)? Management! The teams I worked on seemed to be filled with people who were just waiting to retire. You won't see many people who are actually excited to be working there. No one willingly puts in the extra time because they thoroughly enjoy their job. Don't get me wrong, you'll find some teams that seem to be amazing. But I haven't worked in any of them, so I can't comment on them.

Horrible management and alot of the good ole boys mentality. You really have to brown nose deep if you want a promotion. Good work means nothing here. Management makes lots of promises but usually doesn't deliver. There are no rewards for hard work or going the extra mile. Lots of red tape and bureaucracy. They are outsourcing everything that is not nailed down. Anyone who is young and capable usually leaves the company unless they brown nose for a promotion. Most of management have their degree from the University of Phoenix or some other joke of an online college.
