They couldn't have laid off 5k people in two days. I think next week will be just as bad, if not worse than this one.
Any word on Dara Sadri's Org?
Anybody in operations been laid off yet? If not when do we expect it for this department?
Sc--w T-Mobile
Was a Legacy Sprint employee, 8 years to the company. When they announced the merger, they said that they wanted all Frontline employees not to worry, since they needed everyone. Long story short, after about 1 1/2 - 2 years, they started reducing... — read more
Weekend break
Lets have a break, we will continue next week with massive layoffs.
ETS offshore
Help desk is outsourced now to
Omar’s org?
Anyone hear anything on impacts or timing?
Isn’t 5,000 corporate employees like 40% of the workforce ?
Are they leaving a skeleton crew in corporate like back in the DT days ?
TFB?
Any rumors about TFB? When? How many? what areas will be cut?
The waiting.
I wish they would stop prolonging this and let us know. I'd love to stop the worrying and know what is in front if me.
Save Every Piece of document that is important off the work laptop
To ALL Those who are thinking if they are impacted or not, irrespective move all your important documents - anything related off your work laptop. From what I saw for my teammates, the access was revoked the moment they stepped into the meeting.
How were people not prepared for this?
You had to have known layoffs were coming. Everything pointed to layoffs. The writing on the wall was so huge you could see it from space. I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I have to say it: If you were caught off guard by these cuts, you only... — read more
Cap on tenure for Severance?
Anyone know what the max number of tenure years is for the severance package? Asking for a 'lifer' friend.
T-Mobile Layoffs: Despite Sprint Merger Promises Back in 2019, 'Un-carrier' Leaves 5,000 Workers Unemployed
I'd like to think the FCC would penalize T-Mobile for not living up to their Merger agreement, but unfortunately our Government is broken and rotten to the... — read more
Last Day?
So what's the official last day for people that have already been notified?
600 employees gone in 1 day
Most were in the Cybersecurity/ETS. Managers and ICs both impacted.
Last month, “we are ki-ling the market place and making money
This week, we greedy AF and F your feelings and drag this shot out till September
For those impacted…
I am sorry if you are impacted or if you are having anxiety. I was part of the 2020 cohort. After giving 8 years with 70 hour weeks, I felt betrayed. Even had people take credit for my work to get the PEAK award. The truth is, I make the same pay but... — read more
Stop wearing Magenta gear
Make a statement, this fake culture is the enabler for SLT's bullsh-t. It's the tool they use to manipulate the masses! Fight back, wear normal cloths to the office. The layoff list is already in motion and your T-shirt choice isn't going to change... — read more
TMO Employees WAKE-UP find another job.
Look around! You are NOT working in a healthy environment. Leadership at TMO do not care about you or your mental health. You absolutely can find a better job! Grown men and women behaving like middle school cheerleaders during meetings then laying... — read more
Relocation or severance?
I Keep hearing that vital/necessary remote employees will be offered a relocation package to Bellevue/OP/Dallas, but if you aren't willing to be on-site, you'll get the severance instead. Can anyone confirm? What does the package offer?
What about Friday?
Will cuts continue into Friday?
Free lines and more layoffs!
Free lines only result in no revenue whomp whomp. We all know this. It's a gotcha to say we boost subscribers. Another round coming. Stop slamming.
The party has started.
If you don't know. Tmo has hired a 3rd party firm to handle the downsizing. Be prepared for a short call notifying you of your severance. There will be no time for questions. It will simply be a newscast. You have no options. 5000 seats gone. Maybe... — read more
Any layoffs in Allentown?
Had some interviews there ongoing
Nestor's org completed layoffs
Just got notification that all impacted team members have been notified.
Churn baby Churn
Leave em!!!
We are all family at T-Mobile, until we are not
It strikes me odd that the CEO, who just received a 5-year employment contract extension, is the same person announcing a 7% or nearly 5000 person layoff. I understand the C-suite operates by very different rules. But it still rings hallow given that... — read more
Follow the money

Employee Appreciation Night Tomorrow…haha
Anyone else to it is hilarious tomorrow is employee appreciation night at T-Mobile park tomorrow? I can’t decide if that will be hilarious or depressing. Guessing it will more likely just be drunk.
Break up with your carrier
Have you ever been in a relationship in your 20s where you know its over, but you have a birthday coming up so you stick it out just a bit longer cause they got those VIP concert tickets you've been wanting? That's kind of how I feel now. I used to... — read more
CVS Health colleague here to apologize...
I just read an NPR story about the T-Mobile layoffs and it's all eerily similar to what just happened to us at CVS Health. So similar, in fact, that I feel the need to apologize to T-Mobile employees on behalf of my company's CEO. You see, it's... — read more
Serious question, though
Are they going to keep giving out the free lunches?
When you start talking, I stop listening
"So, let me be really clear on this increasingly important topic... ...This merger is all about creating new, high-quality, high-paying jobs, and the New T-Mobile will be jobs-positive from Day One and every day thereafter. That’s not just a... — read more
Parsippany closures?
Anyone out there have some timelines?
60 Day Transition
For everyone that does get let go, congratulations. Best thing to happen to my group, months ago. 20+ years and I didn’t realize my worth, until I was forced to. We all found much better paying positions and a better culture. I no longer worry about... — read more
Layoff package?
Can anyone who has been impacted in this round of layoffs confirm exactly what is included in the exit package?
If You are under Jon Freier
Layoff is inevitable. The Sievert management style, manage them out. How pathetic. Can’t use the people to innovate so Eliminate. Hope they laid off a diverse group.
I warned everyone 2 months ago about these layoffs. The downvote crew flamed me and said I was making it up.
I warned everyone right here - https://www.thelayoff.com/t/1o287bUG 5,000 people are now getting canned, 3,900 more by the end of the year. If you are in engineering, T-Force or Tech, get the he-l out. This company doesn't care, as recent as today... — read more
