If you were affected this week, my advice is to take a week or even a month off before you devote yourself fully to your job search. If you can afford it, of course, but severance should help with that. These last few weeks have been hard for all of... — read more
Do you all see the big picture!
They’re at those blaming legacy Sprint and others blaming legacy T-Mobile. You also have those that oblivious to what is in front of them and using profanity against the company to express their feelings. The real reason this is happening is because... — read more
Corp Comms (Janice)
So, our director fully admits there will be reductions, didn’t give an inkling as to how people were selected, but mentioned that remote wasn’t a factor. A counterpart on another comms team says that those not tied to a hub can all but bet they are... — read more
Ulf’s email might be the worst piece of corporate communication I’ve ever seen
ZERO acknowledgement of how hard it has been seeing our friends go. Or how hard it’s been waiting to see who gets the call. Calling us the “go-forward” team? WTH!! It was chock full of meaningless jargon. What the he-l is a “programmable... — read more
Sycophants lose always.
My humble commiseration with those that have lost their livelihood.Especially with schools reopening and holiday end year running up. In my short stint at corp work/ politics i have learnt; never trust or listen to c suits .Watch the money never be... — read more
Reviewed severance
Didn’t find anything about badmouthing them in social media. Did I miss something?
What is going on here?
I've only been in a short time, less than 5 years. I feel like I've traded one r#ta-d company for another. More things are broken than I imagined for a big corp like this. The fanatics at the HQ meetings (facepaint, wigs, etc.) are f#cking depraved... — read more
Recruiting
When will this cr-ppy team go? They are the ones who push discrimination more than any other team?
Ulf's confirmation
Confirmation of the completed transformation of his organization just arrived. It's over, until next time.
I think we're getting close to 5k
I know people like to yell at everybody else that it's not over yet, but I think we're now at the point where the majority of the planned 5k cuts have been done. There'll be a few more smaller rounds, I'm sure of it, but the majority of it should be... — read more
No more Admins
What sort of company decides that administrative support is no longer needed?? Good luck getting your coffee and office supplies. Out of TP? Not my problem anymore. Need to plan an event or team builder? Tough luck! All of the cr-p attached to... — read more
Pump and Dump
Can’t you see the pattern? The goal is to continue to lay off employees and pump up the stock while SLT sells their shares. The latest stock buyback and dividend is to accelerate the “Pump and Dump Scheme” by getting these su---r investors to push... — read more
T-Mobile to Start Paying Share Dividend
The future's so bright! T-Mobile Will Start to Pay a Dividend. At 1.9% the Annual Dividend Yield doesn’t provide a huge return but it's a start. The dividend's introduction is also symbolic of T-Mobile's transition to a slow growth, quasi utility... — read more
Seems Quiet Today
Looks like Wednesday is now Thursday? I'm glad to see it didn't carry into today at yesterday's rate. I'm hoping for those still left Friday is safe. Good luck everyone.
Worst day at T-Mobile
Wednesday will mark one of the worst days I’ve lived through working at this company.. I am left to pick up the pieces now and carry on with a team all by myself.. what a absolute mess of a situation when a company chooses to instead layoff hundreds... — read more
Sprint Takeover
I know T-Mobile wanted the Sprint spectrum but that awful culture?!? In 5yrs or less the new Sprint leadership will run T-Mobile into the ground. SLT will continue to cash out while everyone else is expendable. Get out while you can!

Upper Management 9/6, Individual Contributors 9/7
Is there any truth under Ulf’s organization that individual contributors will be affected tomorrow 9/7? It was it just today and today only? Trying to figure out who is safe.
Closures of regional offices?
Any word if Parsippany and Downers will be closed? I heard through the grapevine that they are trying to consolidate and keep maybe Frisco, OP and Bellevue only but not sure if there is any truth to that.
Anyone from Packet Core or voice core?
Any layoffs from ATS?

New 8K posted today - Stock Buyback
So much fun to be laid off today and see that the reason for it is a stock buyback to further enrich those who laid us off. https://d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-0001283699/7b60ca74-89e0-4114-83b7-278f866f0586.pdf

T-Mobile's 5,000 Job Cuts Start of US slowdown?
Interesting analysis of what's possibly driving T-Mobile's significant layoffs. It doesn’t make it any easier for those going through it, but may shed some light on larger industry trends as people consider whether to pursue continued employment in... — read more

How does it work if the person getting notified is on PTO?
PSA: There's no set protocol to inform You
Just want to throw this out there... in years past, if you were getting cut you would get an invite from your manager or manager's manager either the night before or early in the morning. A few minutes before the call actually took place, your... — read more
