AM I NEXT? NO LOVE AT T-MOBILE

Bellevue, Washington-based T-Mobile, a wireless network operator, has announced another round of layoffs, attributed to “changing business needs.”

The reduction will impact 393 employees across Washington state, including 210 senior- and director-level employees, seven employees with vice president or senior vice president titles, and analysts, engineers, and technicians.

According to a company spokesperson, “As the next step in our evolution, we’re making some changes while continuing to hire to ensure we have the right focus, structure, and momentum to keep changing the industry through innovation and a long-standing focus on customers.”

Change is constant, and it's coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life, nor promises of a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something terrible hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, at any time, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. While many employees can read the writing on the wall, why do most assume it’s targeted at someone else? Are you now wondering, Am I Next?

To deliver a great service at a fair price, we must be efficient. As our construction of any market concludes, we require fewer personnel.”
