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

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.

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 

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 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.

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

What kind of criteria was used when selecting people for layoffs? Thank you.

I work for T-Mobile and it has been a shot show since Lehrer left. It wasn’t just FOPS, it was management, upper management with gosh only knows what is to come. I and most likely all of my co-workers are here to notify when something goes down or... — read more

What do you guys think about TMO's future looks like, ATS lost faith in this company after going through so many layoffs. How the company would survive after losing so many talented people?

I know, I know they all had it coming. Don’t we all? Those people.

3600 is the actual number being let go this week across the company.

Unbelievable!!! The company is about o have some major issues soon, you can’t just get rid of your infrastructure and expect things to work out favorably

Any news about cuts to TEX? All these other layoffs have grunts on the phone feeling nervous. They wrecked the community model and canned loads of coaches and TMs. We keep wondering how long we have.

Manager said to be on the lookout for an all hands with our director… is this an indication for layoffs (NTAC)
