Be magenta!

Does anyone even buy anything on Be Magenta!? Like what’s the point? For one, everything is expensive, also, why would I want to buy any T-Mobile related merch and get lay off the next day. What? Use my $80 T-Mobile hoody as a pijama and make myself feel worse by looking at the logo of the company who didn’t care about me?


Suspended due to non pay

I work in inside sales, the amount of calls I get from people being suspended due to non pay is at an unprecedented amount. It’s totally unreal.

Couple with the current market being one of the worst sales markets in the last 25 years. They still expect us to exceed quota when literally nobody has any money and everyone’s phones are being shut uff lol.


Are we done? Or just starting?

It’s really hard to work and focus without looking over our shoulders now and waiting for what’s next. I’m in the Katz org and allegedly this is “our” week but when? Gates are down today as of now in B1 but I can’t keep working with this anxiety. They need to get this over with.


Severance packages are being scaled back in favor of terminations

In 2026 WF is moving the cost of severance packages to the line of business. LOBs are not funded for this cost and will instead force terminations through low performance reviews. Displacements will be delayed as each LOB works through this process. This is so sad, many good people will be forced out due to 'low performance' who truly deserve a package.


I drank the Kool-Aid for too long.

For years, T-Mobile’s all-hands meetings were a masterclass in celebration: employees were praised for the company’s success, urged to give themselves applause, and reminded to work even harder. Yet behind the fanfare, priorities were shifting. After the Sprint merger, leadership focused on maximizing revenue per user, raising prices, and adding fees to hit short-term financial targets and pad executive bonuses. The company’s disruptor identity eroded, and now, massive layoffs hit the very employees who had been lauded as the source of T-Mobile’s success—while top executives collected millions. The contrast between the celebrated “people-first” message and the reality of corporate priorities could not be starker. I wish luck to you su-kers left. Enjoy the Kool-aid.


Federal layoffs continue

A bloated management layer

This place is so incredibly top-heavy with managers who have fancy titles but deliver nothing. Of course, all of them protect each other, which is why they survive every reorg. Imagine a world in which they are the ones getting cut and the people who actually contribute are left alone. I know, never gonna happen here.

DDAT losing developers

How clueless management is. Smh...Developers are leaving left and right. There is no pushback, just approving work constantly. New hires have zero training. Everyone is burnt out. What happened to comp days when your job forces you to work all weekend? Some managers ok with it, some managers not? And whats with the Meaningless calls 8-5 non stop every day? Who can stop this? Who can make change because its miserable to work like this.

Nurses not valued

Nurses working at Humana are NOT valued. Simple but true statement. The Nurses in upper management in the Utilization Review area are clueless regarding UR but wonderful actresses playing like they know the jobs and care. They care only for themselves and their careers. Since centralization it has been a sh-t show and circus and it continues. Change of hours with no consideration of the nurses , impossible metrics and horrible PTO policy. More change coming is the news I hear. Work life balance? Not at Humana.


You might be safe only if:

• You hold "Tribal Knowledge": You are the only person who understands a specific legacy database script that would break the entire project if you left.
• You are willing to Relocate: If you are remote but offer to move to a Hub (e.g., Waterloo or Gaithersburg), they might keep you.
• You are "Cheap": If your salary is significantly below market rate, you might fly under the radar.

Bumping this from @ac+1kfv3g2sk, I think this gets it right.
