A guy I know recently got promoted and is convinced that makes him resistant to layoffs. I know for a fact (and I remember reading it here at some point) that people who had gotten a promotion as recently as a month before layoffs were let go, but he... — read more

I just gave all my T-Mobile shirts and swag to homeless people downtown. I don't want anything to do with TMUS
Diamond Communications has 3 open positions
Check out diamondcomm.com, Linkedin etc for 3 open positions at this company. I hope that this helps impacted tmo folks. It’s a good company. I’ve been here 5 years and worked for a carrier for 20 years before that.
Oct 4 is the day
Hi guys. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but more RIF is in the way. The technology culling is mostly done now on to professional support functions. Please keep in mind if your job can be done from home you’re job is a good target for offshoring... — read more
Let me know
Hi all I want out, how can I talk to my manager about getting laid off. I am planning a mental health break as workload is high stress … I’ll hunt for a new position early next year Thank u
I have a feeling, let's comment
leadership promoted themselves last year with all kinds of C*O and laying off people this year also have enough money to buy back stock lately, does it sound right, think about it, folks.
I feel bad when I see such comments
It is clear to me that most of the comments advising to leave this misery of a place, that no longer appreciates loyalty and hard work, are essentially well-intentioned. However, isn't such advice a little depressing? I think it is. Every adult... — read more
#UnemployerMove
Thousands of families displaced from work right before the holidays, and guess who will be hiring then? Exactly nobody. T-Mobile is in the black by billions, but it’s workforce transformation to ‘digital’ means one thing: pay working families less &... — read more
All Hands
I just can't wait until tomorrow so I can hear the litany of BS that Neville puts out in his all hands.
T-Mobile lies big time!!!
T-Mobile ignores first responders and U.S. military veterans! No 9/11 respect!!!
The new date to watch is the 29th and 30th.
If you are impacted don't take the pay cut, just bounce and take the severence. Good luck and unionize.
It's not just about layoffs
I've noticed that our working conditions in the last few months have gone from bad to worse. Our manager, who was a semi-decent guy until recently, has started yelling at us non-stop. Now he rips us a new one even for the most minuscule things, among... — read more
Done
So I’m sick of my position and I’ve been actively applying internally. Long story short I’m putting in my 2 weeks. Should I bother to ask to be laid off instead? If yes please provide tips and recommendations! Thanks y’all — read more
Rumor has it
Has anyone heard any rumors about there being a second wave? And will NTAC be part of it.. please I really want it to be me next
Manager's influence on cuts decision making
It's hard for me to believe that the managers didn't have much influence on the decision who gets cut. What do you think?
I was going to leave very soon anyway
In any case, it is easier to look for a job while you still have a job. Unfortunately, I was cut before I got another offer, which I have been actively looking for months now. I know that many people met cuts completely unprepared, but I still... — read more
Do we have more layoffs than our competitors?
Can someone make a comparison?
Goodbye Wireline

I'm disappointed I wasn't cut
I'm sorry if this sounds insensitive but I was hoping to be cut and get my well-deserved severance. The fact that I am still here means not only that I didn't get what I wanted but that somebody who needed their job and was hoping to keep it... — read more
Over 3000 jobs available
Remember MS has been saying for months that there are over 3000 jobs available at T-MOBILE.com! Sure be nice if he admitted 2600 of them are sales jobs. While network jobs are being eliminated. Misdirection as usual. I honestly hope his ego... — read more
Expect more layoffs
T-Mo is shutting down legacy Sprint wireline business so expect more layoffs. Their infrastructure is so old Deutsche Telekom has no interest in investing in wireline business in US since it would require complete overhaul as capex has been squeezed... — read more
Low offers
I've been trying to get a new job for a few months and I managed to get several offers but every one of them was much lower than what I make currently. I have a feeling that with all the layoffs taking place all over the industry, companies have... — read more

The fact is that ALL companies massively outsource and ALL companies massively lay people off. It's not just T-Mobile
Yeah, T-Mobile is savage the way they do it by slashing all the tenured people, but every company outsources to low wage indians/Philipinos. T-Mobile just does it in a no F's given way. Always remember, no company has any respect for you and they... — read more
This was all ready established
When we were in the very beginning stages of merger talk. John L explained exactly what was going to happen right after the bid for sprint was complete. It was well established at a meeting at HQ in 2018 with all of the leadership team in the... — read more
What mobile service to choose
To all people laid off, where will you move your plan? Or why will you stay a customer? I know those who are still employed will remain with tmo most likely because the reception inside np buildings are horrible.
All big telecom companies are the same
AT&T, Verizon, it's all the same. They also have layoffs all the time, they also have managers who don't give a damn about anything other than enriching themselves, and they are also always looking for ways to cut costs through any means, including... — read more
Lesson Learned
Layoffs have been a constant in Telecom since 2000. We thought the Uncarrier would keep their word and retrain people so they could keep the talent. We started to get comfortable. We let our guard down. They definitely don't see employees as... — read more
Dish???
Dish is hiring. Heck half of the Ericsson employees that engineered and maintained Sprints network ended up with Dish. Allot smaller company with no one preaching political policies. You get hired because of your knowledge and abilities.
What is the end game!?!
Is this just so they can do stock buybacks? Keeping contractors and dumping employees is not an uncarrier move. Laying off Magenta FT and switch techs during a build seems odd. The timing just doesn't make sense. Another quarter or two and most... — read more
Wireline
Wireline is being sold. They are finalizing the sale. It should be public this month. There are article's about it that came out in mid August. But wireline employees have been offered a buyout.
A note
For everyone left including myself don’t do more than the bare minimum lmao
Just the beginning
Bellevue wants more control. Watch for the vendors like Nokia and Ericsson to take over maintenance, monitoring and deployment of their equipment in the network. Regions will basically be eliminated. Everything will be planned and controlled from... — read more

Work Union
Sensing we should start a work union It’s not like we’re getting paid enough and we’re out here picking up a ton of work from teams that TMO causally decided to layoff Anyway fu-k you Mickey
Over 40 and terminated at T-Mobile?
All employees over the age of 40 are a protected class under the Age Discrimination Act. If you feel like you were terminated because of your age, sue the f*ck out of the company! 10 years wages at least. There are plenty of good attorneys out there... — read more
