Pros

I had a good schedule due to my performance

Cons

Tmobile is the worst, most unprofessional, and underhanded place to work of all the companies ever worked for. That statement goes from the CEO down to representatives that work in the call centers. Only reason it has one best place to work is because management has encourage employees to do the survey and mark the company high in satisfaction so that there could be a time of celebration and off the telephones and away from customers. There is illegal drug use, alcoholism, vulgar language, loud and obnoxious music, And an array of other things going on in the Birmingham, Alabama call center. I cannot speak for any other call center because I have not worked there. But I can vouch for the call center in Birmingham after working there for 4 1/2 years. After having worked there for one year, I had to file an FMLA claim due to anxiety and stress from the job. My doctor has documented that this is a hostile work environment and no one should be subject to the working conditions. Some may ask why not leave- trust me I applied for many positions. Tmobile draws you in with their pay and most local companies will not pay you what Tmobile is paying you for your tenure.

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
