A few weeks ago, after the announcement of the BellSouth/AT&T merger, we were informed that our new data center in Tucker was a go and $43 million had been earmarked for it. BBT (Broadband Technology), our main focus for the last several years, was still going strong with an $800 million budget. IPTV, our baby for the last 18 months, was set to begin a market trial on August 1.
That was before today. BBT? Cancelled. Market trial? Cancelled. Data center? Cancelled. IPTV? Maintain as-is until further notice. Headcount? Static.
I hate big business.
So what does that mean for you personally…or don’t you know? Leave big business and join the insecure masses, like me, in small business who long for matching 401k plans (or do they do those things anymore….)
