T-Mobile on Wednesday confirmed that chief executive officer Phillip Humm has resigned from the company affective immediately. Chief Operations Officer Jim Alling will replace Humm temporarily while T-Mobile seeks a new CEO. While the move seems quite sudden, T-Mobile would only say that Humm is looking to pursue a career outside of Deutsche Telekom, T-Mobile USA’s parent company.
