Why is he stepping down? Seems to me like he was the reason for the success of T-Mobile.
- jandrese 7y agoI guess they decided that Sprint's management was doing such a bang up job they should be the ones running the new company. Sort of like when Boeing merged with McDonall Douglass.
- jaywalk 7y agoThe merged company is being run by T-Mobile's COO.
- jtmcmc 7y agoIt seems like he was just done - he's been CEO for a long time.
- gowld 7y agoThe new CEO Mike Sievert was hired by Legere in 2012 to be CMO then COO then President. It's an orderly succession.
- icelancer 7y agoYeah, this is the situation. Sievert has been groomed by Legere for this position for years. And Legere will still be in touch with him regularly, as he says on Twitter.
- kick 7y agoLegere announced he was stepping down ages ago. It wasn't forced by any means.
- r00fus 7y agoHe's quite a character but hopefully the character for TMO's success transcends his departure.
