AT&T is the only wireless company that can, and does, proclaim that it is "Proud to Be a Union Company." More than 20,000
CWA members work for AT&T Mobility as technicians, customer service representatives and sales employees in AT&T
Mobility Retail stores. AT&T Mobility takes the high-road approach to labor relations, supporting neutrality
and card-check organizing rights, and working with CWA to build a positive partnership. By becoming AT&T Mobility customers, we're supporting our CWA brothers and sisters -- and CWA has
negotiated a 15% discount! Also, new rules allow customers of other wireless companies to keep their phone number when they
switch to AT&T Mobility.
