(1) Question for AT&T CEO Mike Armstrong:
AT&T announced losses of over 5 billion dollars on Concert and
billions more on Excite. As a result of losses like these
hundreds of employees in AT&T Labs were layed off due to no fault
of their own. Why do the people responsible for these failures,
not only get to keep their jobs, but also continue to make
important decisions about the future of the company? For example,
don't you think it's a little unfair that Dave Dorman, head of
Concert while it was losing billions of dollars is now President
of AT&T and others lost their jobs partly because of what he did?
(2) Question for AT&T Labs head Hossein Eslambolchi :
As you are undoubtedly aware, employees who were put
"at risk" under the Forced Management Plan have the
right to know the age statistics of those let go
versus those retained in their "job universe".
However I and others were put in separate "universes"
of just one and thus (in effect) were given no age
statistics at all. Since this makes it look like AT&T
is trying to hide something, don't you think it would
be better if the age statistics for all those "at
risk" versus those "retained" were made available?
