Pros
Great coworkers Decent health insurance Floating holiday Sometimes granted additional, unexpected RSUs
Cons
The merger permanently changed the personality of T-Mobile—as much as they love pretending to be the underdog up against "the other guys," they're now firmly "the other guys." Everyone in an upper management role must have their say, so there are always too many cooks in the kitchen just jockeying for power. Original ideas that come from the lower ranks generally don't survive. Corporate cheer-leading for innovation is a surface-level facade. Leadership pretends to encourage work-life balance but no one in middle management or above could claim to have it. ICs seem to fare a bit better most of the time. Leadership refuses to acknowledge employees' concerns about everything, including RTO/remote work. If you are in the Bellevue area, they demand you fill your seat so they'll get their ROI on their pricey campus improvements. SLT is unbearably white. Very little diversity in the upper ranks. No good options for advancements in my department. HR refuses to evolve pay bands and they're no longer competitive for current employees. I've never gotten a real raise here and don't know anyone else at my level who has, either. If you don't drink the company kool-aid, you'll be miserable. I don't know anyone on my team who's happy.
