Merger = Massive Layoffs

what do you think will happen with the campus in Overland Park if this merger goes through?

This week's layoffs at Sprint

5% impacted in our department in Reston, VA. It was a sh--ty Monday. Is this referring to this week? It was posted in an older thread but it says two days ago, so I'm not sure if it switches to two days as soon as 24 hours pass or if it was posted... — read more

Layoff after 21 years. Thanks a lot!

Today, after 21 years and 15 days, I was officially separated from Sprint due to organizational changes and cost cuts. Over those years I worked with some wonderful people that became more like family than coworkers. I believe things happen for a... — read more

What regions?

I always appreciate when people share info here, including any rumors on layoffs, but can you please add which region you are talking about? Just putting down the region will not in any way make it easier to guess who you are if somebody from the top... — read more

Any update on any type of layoffs today

The company is not letting us know anything everyone is in the dark. It is very difficult to work when you do not know what is going to happen with your job.

Laughing

Soooo glad I no longer work for sprint. What a horrific company. It was such a black day for all of us at Nextel when that will advised merger came to fruition.

National Retail

I’m hearing there will be a decision made on National Retail by this Friday for lay offs. It’s funny that they laid off people on the indirect channel and not NR yet. I’m curious if anyone else has heard this.

Rapidly Losing People - You Know It's Not Smart

At this rate Sprint will be small enough to be gobbled up by T-mobile another provider or call it quits. I doubt a lot of talented people will want to work for Sprint in this economy to help them get out of there hole. Continuing trying to free up... — read more

Stealth Layoffs

This is going on so much that people have coined a term, "Stealth Layoffs." Not just Sprint, it's going on everywhere the past year or so. Some say it seems like a coordinated effort by corporations to conceal layoffs and the true state of the... — read more

I have been with the company through many layoffs and this one seems to be the most secretive of all. There is no communication and no transparency on what is happening. It seems like there is a ninja team of folks cutting people quietly out of the... — read more

Layoffs Coming!

I heard my VP say today that Sprint may layoff up to 10% of their workforce - retail sales is safe. No one else is safe.

Retail VP's let go

Heard Sprint let go 10 of the regional Vice Preidents it brought in 18 months ago. I guess the plan to have 18 separate regions isn't working. Today it was announced that there would only be 8 regions. Would like to have their severance packages.

Sprint needs to stop cutting experienced employees

Why would you cut experienced legacy employees to cut costs? It's completely counterproductive. I'd pay good money for a leadership that realizes that experience is a good thing. Experience brings in more money than it costs and it will certainly... — read more

Buyout

Time has come. Sprints integrity issue has shown the loss of customer base. Their customer service has caused a wind storm that has drowned them in debt but being possibly being bought by a great company that has a vision for the future.
