Business Outlook
Pros
The scale of T-Mobile means that there is a large engineering group for the wireless systems. And, the IT group is very large, and many projects that needs components from both sides. So, that means large, complex, and challenging technology and projects.
Cons
Staff treated poorly by management, and significantly overworked in the technical and IT areas. Tactical, reactionary decisions. Projects are date-driven, without regard for the technical and resource limitations. Projects would get into trouble because of poor prioritization and unrealistic expectations, then the PM would get thrown under the bus. Revolving door of contract resources led to the feeling of instability.
