AT&T is cutting approximately 10,000 jobs as part of a major operational overhaul combining AI-driven automation and an aggressive fiber network buildout. The telecom giant is targeting 4 billion dollars in annual savings by the end of 2028, with 8,000 job cuts planned for 2025 and another 2,100 in the first half of 2026. The workforce will shrink to roughly 130,900 employees by June 2026. AT&T is retiring its legacy copper network in favor of fiber targeting over 60 million locations by 2030, responding to a 26% year-over-year decline in revenue from its legacy segment.
