T-Mobile is moving forward with a new round of layoffs, affecting 363 employees across several locations in Washington state. The cuts, disclosed in recent regulatory filings, impact a wide range of roles including project managers, engineers, and business analysts.
Key details regarding the workforce reduction include:
- Geographic Reach: While many of the impacted positions are based at the company’s Bellevue headquarters, the cuts also extend to offices in Bothell, Spokane Valley, and Bellingham, as well as several remote workers.
- Targeted Roles: The layoffs hit technical and leadership positions specifically, including senior systems architecture engineers and technical project managers.
- Timeline: Affected staff were provided with a 60-day notice period, with April 2, 2026, marking the official final day of employment for this group.
- Strategic Pivot: T-Mobile described the move as a necessary realignment to focus on evolving business priorities. Notably, the company is continuing to hire for hundreds of other roles, particularly those focused on artificial intelligence and retail operations.
This latest move follows a trend of downsizing within the regional tech sector, as companies like Amazon and Meta have also reduced their Washington-based headcounts over the past year. T-Mobile has indicated it will offer support and severance to those leaving, while encouraging them to apply for open positions within the company’s new growth areas.
