T-Mobile is going to lay off over 2800+ people and don't want the bad press for calling it an official layoff.
Here is what is happening -
- ) At minimum the top 2 Highest cost Customer Care call centers will not have leases renewed.
- )T-Mobile says "You can keep your job you have to move to Rochester, the new call center because the lease in X center won't be renewed".
- ) No one will move for $20.00 an hour job with bad management. They will only offer relocation reimbursement for the #1 top performing coach and the operation manager.
- ) To avoid bad press the e-mail they send out announcing the closure will say state that location reimbursement is covered for top performers despite it only covering 2 people.
- ) Everyone gets laid off under the guise of "You didn't want to move to keep your job, it's such a shame."
- ) New Call center opens in a low wage area. All of the new leaders and agents make a small fraction as the higher wage area.
- ) Mike Sievert pockets all the money he saved.
- ) You end up jobless during extreme inflation.
