The "uncarrier". All the shiny object swag in the universe won't hide what the world is learning. A merger based on lie, approved by a lying administration. A company so obviously not ready for prime time and now a great big giant OOPS... — read more
T-Mobile Employees are fed up. Upvote this thread if you want Callie Field to step down. She has lost touch.

Which former/current employee did this.
I sincerely doubt T-Mob ever had 100 mil customers but none the less, this is what happens when you lay off the wrong people. https://www.cnet.com/tech/services-and-software/t-mobile-investigating-claim-of-stolen-personal-data-for-sale/
Cuts
When will they start? I heard something about later this month, any ideas when exactly?
Freierside
Callie Field simultaneously recognizing that having to call in is a long arduous process while sending call center jobs overseas because “customers prefer it.”
Want to get out of here urgently?
I wish I had already left and that this company is just a distant past. I am in a dilemma whether it would be worth moving for a job that offers only a slightly higher pay. Moving is very complicated in my case, but I'm sick of this company and I... — read more
Post-merger layoff coming?
I'm hearing Q3 layoff announcements are coming once the post-merger store closing and office consolidations is complete.... This make sense after all but is there a logical plan execute?
Boost chooses AT&T rather than TMUS for Network Support
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-07-19/t-mobile-slides-after-dish-taps-at-t-as-network-service-provider A potential loss of $5-10 Billion to T-Mobile's cash flow can't be good for keeping employees around. You think AT&T is still angry... — read more
Why wait to be laid off?
There are a lot of people waiting to be fired or laid off but I don't understand that logic. OK, some want to collect uneployment, but I’m not quite sure how much it is worth it. A friend of mine waited to be cut, later got used to not working, and... — read more
Survey?
They sure buried that Your Voice survey and went straight to the paid-for Great Place to Work survey. Wonder what the results were….
SMB Account Executive
Hey guys thinking about jumping ship from Verizon retail to tmo business. Anyone have some insights on this job? What is pay like and goals? Any info would be much appreciated
Former Employee - 2nd Cut 2020

Co-Managers?!
You’ve for real got to be fu----g kidding me. This company is bound and determined not to pay severances. They’re just gonna force people into intolerable situations and make them quit for nothing. Go Delta variant, go.
Lead by example
Can we expect from our management to start leading by example or is that just wishful thinking? They expect a lot from employees but they do nothing on their own. It doesn't work that way. Their behavior sends bad messages to everyone and all they... — read more
Store meeting Sunday
I’m being told we have a store meeting This Sunday the 8th and it’s a company wide thing. Who knows what’s it’s about?
Leave if you can
Underpaid, understaffed, with inadequate benefits. Nobody who has a choice stays at T Mobile longer than a few months. Unless they want to turn their entire personality into a company stooge to be able to get promoted and actually advance their... — read more
RAM positions being eliminated
Are any other stores RAM positions being eliminated, I can’t imagine a store with only a RSM and no RAM at all??? This is a corporate location by the way. One of the RAMs at one of the stores in my area was told to transfer or find another job and ... — read more
Why all these managers?
Can someone explain to me from a business point of view, does this company need all these managers? Especially those who really don’t do anything? I am sure that various problems arise precisely because of the huge number of managers and the long... — read more
Freierside
I wonder if they have metrics on how many people log on and disconnect from Frierside calls. Employees doing their spoken word poetry must have been an all time log off high.
So much micromanagement
Why is that? Instead of being an inspiration, the superiors are total control freaks. It’s horrible how little they trust even longtime employees with a lot of experience of working hard. Why so much micromanagement? Is that all they know how to do?... — read more
Employee surveys
Employee surveys have been atrocious and will continue to be in 2021 Leadership will not fix or address issues brought up over and over 🙄🙄 why even have the survey, its a waste of time
From bad to worse
There has been a noticeable deterioration in commitment, morale and performance. Management has driven out all the high performers who had the knowledge and experience to keep this business running and instead replace them with cheap and... — read more
Think outsourcing is bad now? Thousands of more jobs are going overseas soon.
Thought it was bad when T-Mobile recently outsourced the entire Messaging department and claimed that it was "What customers actually wanted"? Thought it was bad that we officially have way more outsource sites than we do have US Customer Care sites... — read more

What can survivors expect?
I do not expect that after the layoffs it will get any better or that there will be some improvements. Generally, the layoffs are a necessary evil that should hopefully result in savings to help a company sustain itself and continue to grow. In this... — read more
When will the cuts stop?
For now, I'm still safe, but I'm wondering if the cuts will continue next week? Does anyone know?
How did it all get here?
This place has become unrecognizable. I can’t believe I used to be proud to work here and that it was actually very nice for me to work in this company. I am nostalgic but I am almost certain that it will never be the same again. I had never before... — read more
The only question is where is your breaking point?
Someone mentioned in an earlier thread that the big problem is that the company does not make any replacements after someone leaves voluntarily. Here's the thing - if I left tomorrow, without exaggeration, they would have to find at least 3... — read more
From round to round
I’ve survived a few rounds of cuts here, but I really don’t have the will anymore to continue trying to keep this job. Trying to keep a job certainly makes no sense, and I only work the bare minimum. It won't mean anything to me if I survive this... — read more

Legacy Sprint Market Directors...
You would think that instead of bringing them over and letting them micromanage every little thing like they did when they were at Sprint, they would sit them down and tell them those days are done. Nope, gotta be up sending people Slack messages... — read more
I think we're not done with cuts
I know a lot of people are hoping that the dust has settled somewhat, but I think this is just the quiet before the storm. This leadership is far from over milking this merger for all its worth. They'll find a way to justify more cuts on account of... — read more

This is ridiculous
Do they really think that people who leave this company because the conditions here have become unbearable - do not need to be replaced? Colleagues who quit a few months ago have still not been replaced. Not to mention that those colleagues did a... — read more
I don't care no more
I used to be very anxious when rumors of layoffs came up, but a few months ago I absolutely stopped worrying. I believe there are plenty of those who no longer care about layoffs? Instead of worrying, I dedicated myself to job hunting, because I... — read more
I'm just waiting for the severance

Who will be the target?
Again the story of layoffs, lately I have a feeling like there are layoffs here all the time, that's what the atmosphere is like. Does anyone know who will be the target of these layoffs that are rumored to follow soon? I am almost at a point where I... — read more
