Just like that, T-Mobile is ending its diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs to get two big deals OK’d by regulators.
In a letter to Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Brendan Carr on Tuesday, T-Mobile said it will end its DEI programs as it seeks regulatory approval for its UScellular and MetroNet transactions.
“We have conducted a comprehensive review of T-Mobile’s policies, program, and activities, and pursuant to this review, T-Mobile is ending its DEI-related policies … not just in name, but in substance,” T-Mobile EVP and General Counsel Mark Nelson told the chairman in the letter made public Wednesday.
