Pros

• None, unless you count the possibility that magenta and black might be your colors — if they bother to provide you with the required uniform. • You might believe you’re getting a service discount, but beware: “lost” devices, unexplained charges, and exorbitant fees can quickly eat away at any credit. Had over $1,500 vanish within weeks, due to them significantly altering personal account to the extent that they erased it in its entirety and cannot find it and even for employees, the app would not display full billing details. If this is how staff are treated, imagine the customer experience. Each bill viewed is the same, current, bill. You cannot backtrack old bills and they refuse to assist.

Cons

Targeted exclusion disguised as “team culture.” Employees who aren’t part of the favored inner circle are deliberately left out of conversations, lunch breaks, and group activities — even while sitting at the same table. The goal seems to be isolation, not collaboration. • Catchphrase hypocrisy. The company pushes slogans like “One Team” and “Integrity First” but routinely tolerates or participates in behaviors that contradict those values. The gap between the public image and the actual work environment is staggering. • Hostile work environment through social and professional sabotage. Certain managers and team members monitor employees for any perceived misstep rather than offering support, creating an atmosphere of constant surveillance. Management treats mobile experts like Bob, and although accepted into fight club training metaphorically, management will physically threaten to fight you for funsies and their own personal stress relief. Management will goad staff on with vulgar verbiage that rhymes with wussy and implies the same. • Retaliation against legally protected leave. Employees who use approved FMLA leave can expect subtle but damaging retaliation afterward, from reduced hours to performance scrutiny. • Management’s passive approval of bullying. Even when leadership witnesses exclusion or hears about it, the response is either dismissal or justification, signaling that the behavior is acceptable. • Accountability exists only on paper. Reporting channels give the appearance of compliance, but real action is rare unless it benefits leadership’s inner circle. • Potential disregard for federal protections. Actions and policies suggest a pattern of ignoring or undermining rights guaranteed under federal law, including FMLA and EEOC guidelines.

Pros

Training and "green days" to work on training courses online, team activities for teambuilding, excellent benefits including up to a 10% yearly bonus (merit-based), tuition reimbursement, extra insurance options besides health insurance (pet insurance, free life insurance up to 1.5x yearly salary), stock purchase options and yearly stock award to each employee. One of my favorite benefits is job swaps - so long as your manager clears it, you can swap jobs with an employee from another related department for up to a couple months to gain insight and experience into what the other department does from day to day. I left my last company as it had become a bad environment, and after joining with T-Mobile I realized it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. There are very few days where I wake up not wanting to go to work, and I learn something new every day. When I come across a process I'm not familiar with, my teammates are more than happy to provide on-the-spot training, or schedule a time that works for both of us to do so. Above all, the managers set you up to succeed rather than to fail - they want you to do well, and do everything in their power to make sure you have the tools to do well.

Cons

There's some of the same political bs that any company has, but my team has two excellent managers that make work enjoyable. There are a couple personality issues within the team, as happens with any job, but overall everyone gets along. As far as training goes, there wasn't a whole ton initially (though I believe it's more due to the nature of the job - it's impossible to condense everything into a couple week training course).

Thanks so much for taking the time to write this -- we love hearing how much you love coming to work! Your words were spot on when you said your team wants you to "do well". That's exactly what we want for all of our team members! The nature of our business is constantly changing and we know how important it is to provide good benefits and equip you with the training and development you need to be successful. We're glad you're taking full advantage of all of it. As we continue to grow and evolve, so will our training and tools. If you ever feel like you're not getting enough of what you need, though, talk it over with your manager and they'll help you get back on track. Thanks again for your feedback and your dedication to T-Mobile. -- T-Mobile Careers Team
