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?

all those not in compliance with the attendance policy should be FIRED. It is EXTREMELY unfair to the people following the rules. THE ONLY EXCEPTION IS A MEDICAL REASON FROM LICENSED DOCTOR. DK and MS better fix this quick before all the good rule abiding employees QUIT.
A storm is coming.
Bass vs T-Mobile.
Hang on to your magenta hats, pro nouns, and nose rings folks!
I like to come to office for free foods. Then I go home to work in peace without loud people in open work spaces. I get more done
T-Mobile was a thriving business stealing subs from every other carrier and acquired a failing carrier in Sprint. We had an amazing CEO who unfortunately departed and left us with Sievert. Legacy Sprint or T-Mobile, our senior leadership is awful. I agree there are to many legacy Sprint people in key SLT positions and can't for the life of me understand why they were kept. But we also have too many legacy T-Mobile people who su-ked before and after the merger that need to go. This company will survive, but it will do so at the expense of so many great and talented people who deserve better. I'm less worried about a lot of the sh---y employees being separated and more worried about the weight the good ones are left to carry and the lack of focus on elevating them.
You had a distant #3 carrier merge with a #4. Both worst of the worst at the executive level. What did you expect?
Being legacy yellow i am going to wholeheartedly agree that keeping many yellow execs and staff was and is an F.I know too many weak links that kept a job because of brown-nosing vs skillset. I know ex- Nextel folk still around wrecking shop.It is amazing to watch some folk fail upward.Pink folks fgripes are valid but they also get negated when you have wolks that cant even secure a network.F.
Simply puy T-Mo is destined for rough waters based on the top heavy pyramid of execs and refusal to nuke subpar yellow reports.I sed what i sed.#Reaches-into-poepcorn-bag.
History item #8: all the illegal, under handed, unethical stuff they have done to get people to quit, with no package ie bullying, LYING about performance, slights to alter impression. It's real and true. All to hit a number, that has always been the plan.
Some people valued their sanity more than the BS. No regrets.
Legacy Magenta took this company from $15 to $150 a share. Legacy Sprint has taken it from $150 to $130.
Given their ability/history of screwing the pooch, I don't have any confidence in Legacy Sprint leadership.
Yawn... Legacy Magenta and their finger pointing ... so comical, so pathetic
Magenta leadership isn't running this po-p show anymore. It's recycled Sprint leadership.
The Magenta propaganda is failing!
This company ain’t gonna make it. They aren’t going to be able to layoff their way out of this.
Look at history and how this company has forced attrition so they didn’t have to do a pay out via a package.
- Forced vaccination. Many people voluntarily quit. A win for Sievert
- RTO 3 days a week. Many quit, another win.
- Removal of vaccination requirement. Many people didn’t want to sit next to the unvaccinated or next to building guests that were allowed in. Many quit.
4 Not enough people quit voluntarily, so layoff started, but started slowly creating an environment of fear. Many sought another job and quit. No package payout, win for Sievert.
- Reduction of PTO carry over along with strong messages to take your PTO. This is so they don’t have to pay as much when they fire you.
- Workday updates.
- Mass exodus of senior leadership that built the T-Mobile brand and replaced with leaders from a failing company (Sprint). Like it or not, it’s true that yellow leaders took down the then nations 3rd largest wireless carrier… they are now at the helm of the now nations #2. Look no further than this website to see the civil war it’s created adding to the toxicity of working here. IMO, this will hurt Sievert in the end.
Looking forward:
- Layoffs coming in September or October this year which will add more voluntary, and sadly involuntary numbers to the pile. This round will be a huge reduction of people leaders, REMOTE WORKERS, and the continuation of thinning the herd to pre merger numbers. More fuel to this dumpster fire.
- 5-day RTO will be announced shortly after and will take effect 1/1/2024. More people will leave.
- Sometime in 2024, the final round of layoffs will be completed.
Do not quit. Make them pay you off via a package. Take what’s yours.

If you are trusted to work remote today, I can't for th life of me figure out why some of you think this makes you more susceptible to layoffs. Remote work is work and leaders should base your performance on how well you produce expected outcomes. If you are remote and happen to be selected for layoff, it wasn't your remote status that led to it. Look inward, folks. If you're meeting leader expectations for output and doing it the right way, that's all that should matter. It baffles me how little trust there is in both directions with some of you. Some of you shouldn't be in people manager roles. Some of you are ICs that have a sh---y attitude and need to grow the f up.
