AT&T Calls Telecommuters Back To the Cubicle

Posted by kdawson on from the land-of-the-pointy-haired dept.

bednarz writes "AT&T is requiring thousands of employees who work from their homes to return to traditional office environments, sources say. 'It is a serious effort to reel in the telework people,' says the Telework Coalition's Chuck Wilsker, who has heard that as many as 10,000 or 12,000 full-time teleworkers may be affected. One AT&T employee says rumors have been circulating since AT&T's merger with SBC that the new upper management is not supportive of teleworking: 'We'd heard rumors to that effect, and all of a sudden we got marching orders to go back to an office.'"

    First they call you to the office, next thing you know they're going to want you to communicate! If this goes on for too long we may actually have to work.
