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.

It's always been a fake rah-rah show. I'm glad you finally noticed.
@an glassdoor is pointless, companies can pay to get bad reviews taken down
@e3 can confirm from my own experience
I took a huge pay cut when I came to TMO. They actually don't pay that well.
You're there because they pay well. But they treat their employees like disposable tissue. Make sure you review them on Glassdoor. Certainly don't need a "great place to work" award.
The fact that you are just now seeing this is very concerning.
