How many FTE alku pinklips estaru?? In AT&T lo ?? Hope it won’t turn like another SoCal Edison situation . Sad for those tellolu. They need to train their incompetent backfills to get the severance package.

50 IBM 50 tech mahindra ki employes ni pampistunnadu.

No chance . Att will not keep them any longer. May be they can move on after few months.

Workforce transition untadi, tecM will consume some for 12 months and then will let them go. Indeed they won't let them go valley velleyattu chestaru.. sad state of IT affairs indeed. These big sharks kill the businesses of small vendors.. food chain lo oka mettu paiki poyindi

Wrong. They have outsourced because they just ape what Verizon does. DTV was a failed venture and time Warner merger was not well thought. They are cutting down expense to pay for the TW media deal.

ATT has outsourced its IT to IBM since late 90's.  During the first strategic outsourcing, IT folks within ATT were given a choice: take retirement or become employees of IBM.  Tech Mahindra would have placed a  lower than other WITCH/IBM companies.

Here is the 1999 deal between ATT and IBM
