T-Mobile Stands Ready to Support Our Military and Veteran Employees and Customers.
T-Mobile has a longstanding commitment to military and veteran families. In the last year, T-Mobile reaffirmed its dedication through increased hiring commitments, new career assistance programs, community support initiatives, and Magenta Military plans – the biggest military discount in the industry!
Hiring & Career Readiness
- T-Mobile is committed to hiring 10,000 veterans and military spouses by 2023. These hardworking individuals bring considerable teamwork and leadership experience that helps T-Mobile grow its business. They are also excellent examples of engaged citizens, giving back to their communities through voting, volunteer work, and more.
- T-Mobile's Military & Diversity Sourcing team accelerates military hiring efforts and provides additional support with career navigation for veterans and military spouses. T-Mobile is engaged in over 100 military communities across the country and attends more than 100 hiring events nationwide each year. Learn more at T-Mobile.com/careers.
What is Military Friendly®?
- T-Mobile is proud to be a Military Friendly employer, the gold standard from GI Jobs Magazine that measures an organization's commitment, effort, and success in creating sustainable and meaningful opportunities for the military community.
- T-Mobile has been recognized with the Military Friendly Employer 2020 and Military Friendly Spouse Employer 2020 designations.
Military service members sacrifice so much to ensure safety and freedom for our country. At T-Mobile, the company understands this deeply and has made it a priority to provide a great workplace for its military employees—excellent benefits, an organized effort to hire service members and spouses, discounted wireless plans, and many resources to help with transition to civilian life. Jon Freier is honored to be the executive sponsor of T-Mobile's Veterans & Allies Employee Resource Group, where he is continually in awe of the character of military employees - hardworking, highly skilled, and dedicated - traits that mirror what T-Mobile is all about.
– Jon Freier, EVP of Consumer Markets
Nearly 50% of self-identified veteran employees work in technology, and T-Mobile intends to continue its focus on hiring them.
Employee Culture & Readiness
- The Veterans & Allies Network (VAN) is a community of 12,000 T-Mobile employee veterans and allies who seek to increase awareness around veteran culture, the positive impact veterans add to the business, and how veterans' values of respect, integrity, loyalty, and honor align with T-Mobile company values. The network's motto is "MOBILIZE FOR SERVICE".
- The T-Mobile Team of Pros (TOPS) program is a six-month rotational development program that allows frontline employees to explore roles on the Product & Technology team, which can open exciting job opportunities for military employees.
- Deployment eligibility for military leave begins on an employee's first day of work. Employees on approved military leave are eligible for their full T-Mobile base pay plus commission, if applicable, and are aligned to the sales compensation plan for up to two weeks. Employees may be eligible for supplemental pay for an additional 50 weeks (maximum two claims per year).
- Military spouse retail transfer allows retail teams to transfer a military spouse employee from one market/region to another based on military relocation (permanent change of station or PCS).
- Employee mobile service discount helps employees take advantage of steep discounts on all rate plans and enroll up to 10 voice lines, plus up to five mobile internet lines with T-Mobile.
- Other T-Mobile employee benefits include health plans, paid time off, childcare assistance, and paid parental leave.
Our Communities
- T-Mobile has partnered with The Mission Continues, where its employees volunteer in local communities across the country to give back to the veteran community.
- T-Mobile has also been a top sponsor for the United War on Veteran Council's annual Veterans Day parade in New York City. More than 100 T-Mobile veteran and military spouse employees proudly march in the parade each year.
