I have a few colleagues who are still convinced that their commitment and hard work will protect them from layoffs. I can't believe that some people still think that way. It's not good to panic, but you better dust off your resume. Just my 2... — read more
When it happens, and it will
Review your payroll withholding. When you get your lump sum it will be taxed at that rate. Any ESP stock that haven’t vested, they will refund you that money. They will pay out any unused PTO, but be sure to check and know how much time is due to... — read more
Those that get the pink slip, are you planning on signing the sev package?
If not, what's the gameplan?
No work Aug 21 - Aug 25 (Mon-Fri)
Rumors have been swirling around a boycott of work the week of 8/21. People plan to be at work, just not working as a signal to SLTs deaf ears that there is something wrong at T-Mobile. Not sure how credible this is, but I plan to not work that... — read more
Ulf layoffs start 1st week in Sept
Not sure the exact date, but the selected people are locked in. If you’re going to do anything, do it now… you have less than 1 month.
Jon Freier announced reductions
Today it was announced that no changes will come to T100 Sr. Managers, SMRA Market Managers, Express Retail Development Managers, and Sr. Managers. However, other frontline positions will be impacted as soon as this month! T-Mobile will move away... — read more
Return to office
They should simply reduce salaries for folks that want to work from home by 7% to account for savings of gas, commute, food and time. And take that same 7% and give it to those that RTO to cover expenses related to commute, food and clothes. Problem... — read more
Area model in technology
Does anyone have any further details about the area model SLT has been working on in the technology dept?? There is constant chatter about it but no details disclosed.. the lack of information and all the constant chatter of impending doom, has... — read more
The pandemic is over.
The pandemic is over. Get back to the office or get laid off. Simple as that. No more slackers. There are literally thousands of people recently laid off in telecom that would love to have your job.
5 day RTO is coming January 1st
This is a rumor only I am working on confirmation but as of today I can't get a confirmation from SLT that this is not true. When translated "no comment" is a cryptic yes. I still can't understand why executives can't truthfully answer a simple... — read more
This is a dealbreaker for me
No, I will not waste my time commuting five times a week to do...what exactly? There's nothing I can achieve at the office that I can't do from home and that I haven't been doing from home for years. I can tell you with 100 percent certainty that if... — read more
August layoffs
Any news on August layoffs?
Be prepared for 5 day RTO
Be prepared to be in the office 5 days beginning in January or you will be in the unemployment line.
The latest reason to reduce headcount is....
Not going to your local office enough! if you aren't attending your office, you are not compliant with "policy". Watch out for your notifications this week, you'll have two weeks to turn it around or you're gone. Happy to be disposable, as always. — read more
Good News at last
There will be no layoff announsements until September. Whilst there is more time to prepare do not be complacent. Cheers for now.
This company literally died when Legere left.
I remember before he left, people were happy, always trying their best to meet goals, always wanting to motivate each other and be super positive... Now? It's super high pressure sales, constant fear and stress that layoffs are looming, constantly... — read more

Story on layoffs
Hi there, My name's Yowei Shaw and I'm a journalist working on a story for the podcast This American Life (www.thisamericanlife.org) about layoffs, after getting laid off myself from NPR... — read more
Working here means constantly being in fear of layoffs
Here it has become impossible to relax and do your work because there is a constant fear that you might lose your source of income, no matter how hard you work. I think I've had enough, maybe it's high time to leave?
RSU
If layoff happens, do we get to get 2024 and 2025 RSU or just 2024?
Brock’s All Hands
Brock: how can we improve company culture??!! All: I don’t know …. Don’t fire people ??!!
Is this the week?
Layoffs would need to happen this week to get headcount off the books for Q3 reporting to wall street for Q3 earnings. Does this make sense? The assumption is based on the common 60 day WARN reporting rules for most states. What are your thoughts? — read more
700+ customer care layoffs coming by q4
The layoffs continue, the lies continue.. Where will the savings go? You guessed it, to the execs.
T-Mobile needs to UNIONIZE
T-Mobile employees need to all become union employees. If we had a union we would all be paid what we are worth, we wouldn’t be treated like we are and SLT would not continually lie, cheat and steal from us. This company has lost its way, they keep... — read more
That's what they want
Several of my colleagues have already left because they were under tremendous pressure. In fact, by creating such pressure, the company practically pushed them out the door. Goal achieved - the company saved something on severance pay. But I'm... — read more
Until This “Leadership” Admits Their Lies, Failures…
… and takes a massive patchy, no one should do any work. They have been wrong about everything for over two years, and we should rub their faces in it until they learn to never do it again.
Those who did not return to the office
I still care about keeping this job until I get a better opportunity somewhere else. Those who didn't return to the office, aren't you worried that makes your position less safe?
Who else was confronted by their direct manager about their WFH attendance?
My manager reached out to me and let me know that my attendance numbers and that they have not been up to par. Who else has had their direct manager confront them? Honestly, I work with all vendors. Some onshore (in other states) and some offshore... — read more
Seivert created a CIVIL WAR between S and T
So much fighting and finger pointing (justified?) between Yellow and Magenta. No way this new S-Mobile aligns and innovates to catch up with Verizon. This company is destined to fail.
Era of Innovation-ish
It's highly unlikely that at a time of unprecedented fear of layoffs at T-Mobile, you're going to inspire innovation. When people fear losing their jobs, they rarely become more creative or innovative. Sure, there are exceptions where people have... — read more
Q3 Layoff....true or not
There has been much chatter about regular quarterly layoffs until such a time the FTE headcount is similar to the TMUS count prior to the merger. Is this true? Does this make sense? Is there a top secret readout of true attrition count? Has anyone... — read more
Shut up Meg!
Anyone catch megalodon’s new email telling us - now is not the time to fight back about WFH ? She sure has not been fighting back with the snacks!
September it is!
Some markets commenting and have rumored that September layoffs are in the horizon which would go nationwide and affect technology teams. Many people have seen many SLT leadership, recently resign and this may not entirely be a coincidence.. we all... — read more
How safe do you feel?
Maybe I'm too anxious because up until now my private situation has always been good so it would've been easier for me to go without a job for a while than now when it would be very difficult for me to be left without a source of income. On the... — read more
Yes, more layoffs are coming
Stop asking. It's happening. You won't know exactly when. You won't know exactly who. So many people think they know, but they don't. Do your job well and you'll either stay or you'll be that much sharper for your next role somewhere else, with a... — read more
Out of money? Thanks Sprint… ki-led another company
Budgets are slashed. Projects are canceled. OPEX crunch. Layoffs. Contractor layoffs. Sprint destroyed themselves and the companies they bought. T-Mobile has decided to place sprint leader in high ranking positions, and now we are outta cash. wTF? — read more
Ulf all hands call
Wonder if this is where they tell us operations is being outsourced. I mean the push to have workday updated by the 15th and now a conference call on the 27th is kinda a weird coincidence.
Curious about the target groups
I take the rumors of cuts very seriously. Does anyone have insights who could be target groups?
Signs that there will be layoffs
Now that the rumors about big layoffs started circulating, I intensified my search for a new job and I hope that I will get a good offer as soon as possible. One should always be prepared. However, I would like to hear the arguments of those who... — read more
