AT&T announced on Tuesday that they plan to invest $17 billion to $18 billion in 2009 in capital spending. Most of the funds are pledged to bolster AT&T’s wireless and broadband networks to offer more coverage.
As pair of the expansion plan, they intend to add almost 3,000 jobs this year to support customer demand for broadband, wireless and video.

It’s not all good news, however. Outside these job additions in their wireless and broadband units, the company will still proceed with the 12,000 job cuts announced in December 2008. These cuts are necessary due to restructuring as AT&T shifts away from wired voice services.
