T-Mobile will lay off 121 employees in Bellevue, Bothell and Snoqualmie, according to a state filing Friday.
These details of layoffs in Washington, starting in October, come days after the Bellevue-based carrier announced its plans for limited job cuts.
T-Mobile said in a statement Wednesday that the company is “evolving” its IT organization.
“As we continue to hire for hundreds of new roles, we have eliminated a small portion of positions to realign the focus and structure of some parts of the team,” the statement said.
T-Mobile recently closed its $4.4 billion acquisition of UScellular, which brought more than 2,000 employees to T-Mobile, according to a Wisconsin state filing.
“We’re improving experiences for millions of UScellular and T-Mobile customers and adding more amazing employees to the T-Mobile family to help us do it,” Mike Sievert, CEO of T-Mobile said in a press release after the deal closed.
T-Mobile said in its Wednesday statement that it would offer “support as they transition” to the dismissed employees.
In 2023, T-Mobile was the second-largest employer in Bellevue, according to the city’s economic data. It had 6,300 workers in the city, behind Microsoft, which had 8,700.
