What's current severance offered by Sprint? I've heard it was severely reduced from several people, and was wondering if that is true?

More layoffs this week?

With layoffs that took place last week, I'm thinking that the process might continue into this week. I really wish they would, to be honest. We know many huge layoffs will be happening. The sooner they are done with them, the better. I'm tired of... read more

It’s unrealistic to think that nobody loses their job when two companies this big combine. Joe Meyer announced job cuts to begin next week, starting with the Re-purposing if 10 employees from Wireline to Wireless. This was just a start.

We'll pay for the merger

So T-Mobile and Sprint are merging. I hear the wedding will be lovely but there will be no reception.

Sprint and T-Mobile are likely to announce their merger(This time for Real) , What does this mean for a software developer like us in Overland Park ? will this Immediately affect the Jobs ? Will there be more cuts?

National Retail

I’m hearing there will be a decision made on National Retail by this Friday for lay offs. It’s funny that they laid off people on the indirect channel and not NR yet. I’m curious if anyone else has heard this.

Rapidly Losing People - You Know It's Not Smart

At this rate Sprint will be small enough to be gobbled up by T-mobile another provider or call it quits. I doubt a lot of talented people will want to work for Sprint in this economy to help them get out of there hole. Continuing trying to free up... read more
