As far as I've seen AT&T and Verizon are the only ones getting contracts, never T-Mobile or US Cellular.
I personally have seen much greater damage from other contractor's failures (Microsoft, Oracle, etc.) than AT&T or Verizon could cause. When you've suddenly lost email, Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, the phone is as useless as the computer.
But the sad reality I've experienced is that a fiber seeking backhoe hundreds of miles away cripples half your network and Lumen insists there is nothing that can be done to prevent this. And everyone just goes along with this.
