SEATTLE —T-Mobile’s pay cuts last year, which cost each worker
thousands of dollars in yearly pay, and the firm’s threat for more
layoffs following at least 5,000 people it fired in 2021, pushed some
300 customer service reps at the firm to form their own union. They
unveiled it during a company-wide zoom call on October 19.
The T-Force Social Care Alliance (TSCA), is trying to model itself on
the independent grass-roots-organized Amazon Labor Union and on
Workers United, another grass-roots group—aided by the Service Employees—which is unionizing Starbucks stores nationwide.
