AT&T and CWA Bash FCC Over T-Mobile Lay-Offs
FCC Strikes Back
http://www.phonearena.com/news/FCC-responds-to-AT-Ts ... »
"Later Friday evening, the FCC responded with a short statement that basically said that AT&T's own confidential documents relating to the deal had projected job losses. With that comment, the FCC was saying that even had the agency green lit the deal, there still would have been layoffs anyway. And to make matters worse for AT&T, redacted documents belonging to the mobile operator show that had the merger gone through, AT&T would have eliminated more than the 3,300 employees affected by T-Mobile's call center closing."
Nice.

Sprint is the most vocal Carrier but has anybody really looked at Sprint?
They directly employ about 40,000. However, the numbers they outsource are hidden. Why is that?

Yeah, so what's your agenda? Because this article has nothing to do with sprint or job outsourcing.

Food for thought... If your job is sold to another company, you have to apply with no guarantee of getting it right?

"Sprint cut 20,000 jobs in the past four years and sent much of that work overseas. During that same period, Sprint closed 30 U.S. based call centers.
Despite this record of job destruction, Sprint wants to get credit for a pledge to bring a mere 600 offshored jobs back to the United States."

Ummmm....So what is T-moblie doing with the Billions of dollars in break-up money? Apparently not preserving jobs....I smell C-level bonuses. While ATT originally proposed saving "these" jobs there would have been thousands laid off to reduce redundancy. That is why mergers occur, to streamline business. The layoffs would have happened 1,2,3 yrs down the road, but they would have happened. ATT is still kicking and screaming for being prevented from buying the world and being put in timeout by the FCC.
