AT&T CEO and leadership

Working at AT&T offers extensive career growth opportunities and access to cutting-edge technology in a diverse and collaborative environment. The company provides a strong benefits package and promotes a healthy work-life balance, making it an attractive place to build a career.

Working at AT&T can involve navigating a large corporate structure, which may lead to slower decision-making and less flexibility in certain roles. Additionally, some employees report challenges with work-life balance due to high workloads and performance expectations.

My favorite perk would be the flexibility to work remotely, as it allows for a better work-life balance and the ability to create a comfortable and productive workspace. Additionally, having access to professional development opportunities is a great way to continuously grow and enhance skills.

I appreciate that the CEO and leadership team foster a culture of transparency and open communication. Their commitment to innovation and employee development creates an inspiring environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to contribute.

To improve company culture, I would focus on enhancing collaboration through regular team-building activities and cross-departmental projects. Additionally, implementing more feedback channels for employees to voice their ideas and concerns could foster a greater sense of inclusion and engagement.

I researched the company’s mission and recent developments, practiced common interview questions, and prepared tailored responses. I also crafted thoughtful questions to show my interest in the role and the organization.

Compensation at AT&T is generally competitive with the industry average, offering a mix of salary, bonuses, and benefits. However, it may vary based on role, experience, and location compared to other companies in the telecom sector.

I believe AT&T has made strides in promoting diversity and inclusion, but there’s always room for improvement. Ongoing efforts to enhance representation across all demographics can foster a more innovative and equitable workplace.

The most joy comes from collaborating with a talented team to solve complex problems and seeing our projects positively impact users. Celebrating our achievements together and learning from each other keeps the work environment inspiring and fulfilling.

There aren’t any

Discount on phone service

AT&T is anti customer service. The systems are not integrated and if there’s an anomaly the customer is in trouble. They are all about the bottom line and executives.

Nothing. At least the present team is better than Randall Stephenson, he has to be the all time worst CEO of any large corporation. He ran up staggering amounts of debt by making senseless acquisitions at the expense of quality of service.

Customer service improvements

I don’t know

I don’t care

The end of the day and pay day

You get paid and there are health benefits tied to your position.

BAD management. In regards to the Premise/ Installation position, no work life balance and if you are low in seniority you will have what most consider an awful schedule. Fiber installations have become so tedious. Every metric from how long a person takes to dispatch after speaking to a customer to how long a job takes to complete is being tracked. Lots of turnover.

Pay, healthcare, and discounts on services

AT&T is huge so I won't speak in regards to the entire corporation, but in the Northern Illinois area there isn't any diversity on the management team in the garages.

Helping customers thoroughly

Opportunity for advancement, work/life balance

limited visibility to leadership

Wireless service

Having an hour break for lunch which is very much needed dealing with the calls all day.

The management is the worst.

I barely got to use any benefits in my one year of working there.

Stability. Discounted cell phone and TV service.

Any position not represented by the Union is taken advantage of. Horrible leadership. Continuously cut staff and pay while adding responsibilities.

Free TV service.

Being a Sales Manager and leading a team

Upper Management

Cheap/Excellent cellular service

Not much!! Location is nearby

Poor management

Growth opportunity. Retirement Plan. Benefits. Flexibility in work locations.

Things are left to your direct supervisor to influence your work environment.

Half off cell phone bill, $10 Directv, free sports packages

Interacting with impactful technologies, diversity of career options within the company

It can be a slow company with strong bureaucracy and politics.

Remote work options.

Good pay & benefits and I loved being a technician and warehouse manager.

Constant threat of being laid off. After 22 years, I got laid off.

PTO - 4 weeks vacation, 8 floating days, 10 paid sick days, all major Holidays / family medical benefits

Access to one of the world's most remarkable technologies; the ability to send voice and data worldwide

Office politics too much discussion on referring sales, and how to treat customers (I knew how to do that before I started AT&T). Not enough emphasis on learning about the technology that made the system work.

Employee concession on telephone service.

Being part of a team.

Large companies take a long time to make changes.

concession on all services

Pay and benefits were decent. Overall a good place.

My department became the retiree grave-yard, where those near retirement came to finish their career. As a result, sometimes leadership challenged. My department was still over-all a decent place to work.

Flexibility with in the role.

Pay, benefits

Work-life balance, inconsistent sales metrics, management

Salary and healthcare benefits

I am no longer working there

2 faced managers, rampant and out of control favoritism

None

Bonuses

The metrics don't adapt during slow seasons such as summer. Making it that much harder to bonus out.

Coworkers, and the relationship between the store and corporate.

Worked on my own all day, pay was good too

No set time to get off work, you work till the load is clear. constant outages, and management seems to have a metric on how many people they have on write ups

The health insurance was amazing

Constantly changing work environment, made the days go by quickly. My store was a high volume location, so daily sales were usually positive.

Exaggerated Sales Targets, and the management pressures that follow them.

Commission checks were always something to look forward to

Good pay, good benefits, tuition reimbursement is offered

Work life balance, can’t take sick days to take care of your child it has to be approved by manager or you get written up if your child goes to the hospital and you have to miss work for example

Vacation time is generous and there are raises every 6 months

I liked the position that I held. It had constant people interaction. I loved my customers, peers and managers.

The company itself was disorganized. I often wondered WHO made the decisions.

At first there were perks of trips, gift certificates, cash and time off. In later years ALL perks were non-existent (at least for non-management)

Good pay, Room for Growth

Bad Leadership, poor sales incentives

Salary is good

Depends on the team, but for the most part the working teams are great.

Rolling lay-offs every 4-6 months. No raises if you are considered in a “green” zone for Pay in your location. Promotions are continuously on hold due to hiring freezes. Positive Net Promoter Scores (NPS) are driven by leadership targeting any detractors during rolling lay-offs.

50% off services

Self Starting

too Much management fire drills

Can nit think of any perks or benefits, too large of an org to get out of its own way

Job security & work/life balance

Limited opportunity for advancement, hierarchal and outdated management style, unwillingness to fix problems and propensity to reorganize instead.

Free DirectTV, 1/2 off cellphone, etc

Good pay and 401k match

Toxic culture and expect to be treated bad if you are a manager

Service discount

Diversity of projects, cutting edge technology, opportunities to work in different positions upon request, always challenging

Politics - especially between upper management and subordinate resources, negative culture - for example, on numerous occasions, during teleconference calls, certain senior managers regularly cursed at lower management employees with no repercussion from company Directors. I remember those being verbally pummeled crying on calls. This led to termination of meetings on multiple occasions.

Financial - I enjoyed a 401 - K that included a 6% match. In addition,the benefits managing group, T. Rowe Price, were excellent in all aspects of financial subject matter expertise.
