How on earth is T-Mobile matching your Amazon TC?

NOO, why the hell do you want to move from full time to contracting?

Lol. Good question. I would say you should try everything. If you dont like your work at Amazon then you can come and join tmobile. I'm pretty sure you will get good wlb. Tmobile is not doing ecommerce business so their wages are lower than your expectations.

Big FAT NO. TMO treats contractors like slaves. Latest example - in one of the projects, they started a new policy where FTEs can't be asked to join meetings outside work hours or on Fridays or during lunch hour. But contractors are fair game. Several such policies.

One of my colleague did the same mistake by resigning microsoft full time and joining Tmo as contractors, he cries almost everyday.

Why don’t you look for a full time at TMO? Contractors are not treated nicely here. Before COVID I visited one of my contractor friends, he had half of a desk to use because contractors in his org don’t get allocated workspace at all.
