Pros
There were no positives. This was the most damaging place I've ever worked.
Cons
During my time with T-Mobile, I experienced race-based harassment, gender-based discrimination, and physical assault. I was paid less than male counterparts with fewer qualifications and less experience and lied to about the pay I was to receive after being promoted (then told I could either take the promotion at a lower rate of pay than originally promised or quit). I was called anti-Indigenous slurs. I was grabbed and groped multiple times within and directly outside of the store. I was told not to provide direction or feedback to male reports because they were--and I quote--"alpha males" and should not be expected to accept a woman's authority. The more I spoke up, the greater the retaliation became. I was routinely excluded from meetings; threatened with demotion; and at one point, scheduled to work 11 days straight with no time off. It's been about two years since I quit, and I'm still recovering from the physical and emotional trauma of working here. If you currently work here and are experiencing the same thing, file reports with HR and gather documentation. Everything that happened to me was illegal, especially considering that the three men responsible for the worst of it had been investigated previously for the exact same conduct. I should've pursued legal action and wish every day that I had. Instead, I chose to prioritize my physical safety and mental health and left without filing a formal report. Don't make the same mistake. Speak up regardless of the retaliation, get your documentation in order, call a lawyer, and make a plan. If you're not already working here, DO NOT apply. It is not worth the harm you'll suffer.
