T-Mobile raises minimum wage for every single employee to $20

SAN ANTONIO (WOAI) — T-Mobile has increased its minimum wage to $20 per hour for all of its employees.

In a statement released last week titled "Making a Great Place to Work Even Better," CEO Mike Sievert wrote:

Every single employee at T-Mobile, even our newest team members just starting to build their skill base, should have a competitive wage. So, we have decided to implement a nationwide minimum pay at T-Mobile of at least $20 per hour. This will now apply to every single employee regardless of role, or full-time or part-time status. The truth is, the vast majority of our employees already earn well above this level, especially when including incentive pay. But this move is about inclusion, and we wanted to draw a line that ensures no employee is left behind.

Sievert points out that after the increase in pay, weekly applications to work at T-Mobile jumped from "300 applications a week to 4,000 – a 1,200+% increase!"
