Pros

Atmosphere. Multiple shifts. No labor, all age groups can do it. Bonuses for just showing up (Pro for new hires, con for tenure). $20 starting pay (again, pro for noobs. Con for long term)

Cons

Bonuses were crippled so everyone can get one, if you're good at your job, I'm talking top performance- you might make 45$ over the person that just shows up. When the starting hourly minimum increased, it evened out all the raises tenured employees gained over their years of service. We received nothing and was told to be happy for everyone else. So it's pay structure supports quiet quitting, and the only thing worth your time is getting sales, which people cheat. The hardest part of your job isn't customers, it's picking after your own peers who're either too new, are scorned and couldn't care less, or are cheating for short term gains. Also, systems are a lot more restricted now than they were pre-covid. It's really Tmo's way or the highway and less about making the customer happy. If you can't escape customer care, there is little pay advancement. Yearly bonuses of 3% get offset every few years when minimum pay increases.

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
