I have an offer from AT&T Dallas. TC is matched with NY salary which is 160k. I have personal interest in Salesforce project which is new initiative at AT&T but at same time I am afraid company management is not good then who care about me if I move or have family :) They are not offering me any relo, and we are family of four including two school going kids. Wondering if any one can help is it worth taking a risk to move from NY to TX. I have no issue with TX weather or community. But more concern that don't want to get surprised after I move and the layoffs or any such surprises.
Yeah that is a risk. I’ve heard of other relocating within the company only to get surplused later when senior management decided to pivot But at least with the Salesforce initiative I think you have a 1-2 yr runway if not more. T desperately needs to consolidate their customer billing and identity management systems
Yes I agree. You might have some time before they look the other way from this Salesforce initiative.
Worked at T around 10 years ago - seems like little has changed.
Assuming you are going to be part of retail system conversion to sales force. As you may already know sales force did not do well in retail Telcom space in the past. Rumor is that it is a joint effort between att and sales force. Sales force hired 300 people for the project and companies like mulesoft are lined up for integration. Accenture is pushing hard to be in the middle of the game as fully managed integrator. Unless att simplifies it’s offers , it is almost impossible to sunset internal att systems and move it to sales force .. get a GOOD clarification on what your role is going to be. Pay is average for senior type candidate for att l2.
I did not know about Accenture trying to weasel their way in
You will feel insecured working at AT&T.
I would definitely think thrice before joining T at this time.
Look at your check and see how much is deducted for state taxes. Now imagine it wasn’t stolen from you. Does that help?
What did you decide on OP?
Have not finalized yet...
If a company doesn't want to pay for relocation tells you how much they value the role, you should run other way...just saying
I been trying to find something in network ops with TMo. Got anything ?
It’s a Red shole. If you’re not White you may be shot dead. If you are White you’ll get Covid
At&t or Verizon? Which one would you choose?
Run in the opposite direction. T is dead and rotten
