T-Mobile Comes to Augusta

by Valarie Edwards

After a nationwide search for what it calls the perfect city, T-Mobile has announced it will soon open its newest customer service facility in Augusta.

And that means a thousand new jobs for one of the country’s leading metropolitan areas.

The Washington-based T-Mobile will begin hiring for customer service and management jobs this spring.

Employees at the new 80-thousand square foot complex will enjoy an on-site gym, deli, tee-vee lounge and cyber café.

This is the second bit of good news this week for Augusta.

Earlier this week, Augusta was voted the country’s most affordable metro area.
