AT&T, through their bargaining reports, has chosen to bargain directly with you, the public and the press. What AT&T has failed to mention is that nearly every proposal they have passed is retrogressive. The company passed a Parental Leave proposal that offers you less than 20% of the leave that they offer their managers. Their proposal to “streamline” network titles was for a title merger without any additional benefit to either title. The company, on two different occasions, have proposed benefits packages that dramatically shift the cost to you. Keep in mind this is a company that makes billions of dollars a year and pays their top executives millions of dollars, but they want you to pay more for medical coverage.
Your bargaining team is surprised and angered that the company wants to promote their proposals that are meant to take away from you. AT&T is lying to you. If you are not angry, you are not paying attention.
Stay mobilized!
