Wants to be a leader in digital, technology, and cybersecurity but wants to pay low or middle of the range compensation. TMobile CEO requires almost everyone to be in the office with a minimum number days of the week 3 days for a sr manager and below, 4 days as a director or above. They are also checking badge logs and pressuring people that aren’t meeting the minimum. We also can’t hire qualified cybersecurity people because of our low compensation and requirement for butts in seats. So, instead we’re just hiring warm bodies. Leadership is abysmal, there’s no accountability within the company especially in the technology orgs. When faced with a problem and a tough situation, executives are only focused on “quick wins.” So, technology and cyber security debt just continues to build. This is exasperated by the massive layoffs the technology and engineering orgs have experienced. All while record revenues every quarter. The result of all of this is our technology and security employees are over extended and exhausted while receiving little support from the leaders in the company except the expectation to “do more with less” while requiring you to be in the office so they can see you getting on a webex call. I don’t recommend working for T-Mobile if you’re a technology employee. If you’re a cyber security professional run as far and as fast as possible away from T-Mobile.
