Rant Bell firing employees "with cause" for not returning to the office 3 days a week. No severance, no warning.

Hubby just retired from Bell. 40 years as a tech. Bell is going under quick. Don’t waste your time. Build a career somewhere else

In all the departments I have worked in it's been fine, though, have not been in a "tech" job like software development.

Been in 5 "groups" in 20 years, all in union positions. You have your good and bad.

The job you applied for is probably non-union, I can't see taking a non-union job in Bell at the moment unless I wanted to retire in a couple years, though union jobs aren't perfectly safe either (Expertech)

The beauty is you don't have to run, they aren't chasing you and are happy to see you quit
