One of the main positives of WFH for me was not feeling the same dread on Sundays or even better, on Mondays, that I did before. I started to enjoy my job again and that made me more productive. Now I'm back to hating my job and hating having to go... — read more 

This might just be me being paranoid, but it feels like we've had more firings lately. I know of three people who were fired (and I want to emphasize fired, not laid off) in the last two months or so. Only one of them deserved it, in my opinion... — read more

I haven’t been here long and it’s pretty shocking to me when someone who has spent two decades here says that during all the ups and downs this place has had over those years, what is happening now is certainly the worst. ---- Is it really so, that... — read more 

Once last week and twice this week GFS was either slow or down. In CashPro we were unable to run reports. How are we supposed to make our numbers with the systems down or slow. Makes no sense

People are leaving in slightly elevated numbers, but it's nowhere near the armageddon some are trying to paint it to be. I wish it were true, I really do, but creating a false image of what's happening at the bank helps nobody. Let's focus on things... — read more

Literally… one day after the other it’s a constant talent drain. Have you noticed this in your department too? I’ve never seen so many managers and upper managers leave!

Heard from a colleague about a north California location closure by end of this year. They didnt tell what will happen to employees in this locations. There are 250+ headcount and left in limbo. I told them to polish their resume.

Besides the RTO requirements which changes from quarter to quarter, layoffs can still occur for BOFA employees. Hence, the purpose of this site to support layoff rumors. However, the CEO made a possible mistake during a MSNBC interview which may... — read more

At first I was frustrated by the decision to go back to the office. There is absolutely no reason to spend money on gas and waste time in traffic. If I really saw the point of RTO, I wouldn’t complain. But now I come to work with a smile because I... — read more 

Maybe I’m just fed up, burned out or whatever, but what really bugs me lately is the way that they always shift the blame for whatever goes wrong to the employer that is the lowest link in the command chain. The irony of it all is that that person... — read more 

Not surprising that very few people are in the office. I often feel I had more connectivity with my team and business partners vs.. when I was WFH. Work less in the office. I am busy socializing with people I don’t work with. Hahahah works is less... — read more 

If they want me back in the office permanently pay for my parking!

I've been doing work for two people here for a long time, but somehow I've gotten used to it so now I don't even complain much. However, what bothers me a lot and creates even more stress than the fact that I am overworked, are interpersonal... — read more 

Meaning you had one with an RTO date but you/your dr requested another? Was the process different the second time around? My dr wanted to reevaluate in a year, we’re approaching that but nothing has changed so need to go for another accommodation. — read more 

How likely do you think it is they are going to offer hybrid? We have so many open positions in my group which they are unable to fill because not many people want to work in an office 5 days a week. That seems to be the first question that is asked... — read more 

I know how things stand here now when it comes to layoffs: BofA is trying to get rid of those who are more expensive - in other words, those who have more skills, knowledge - while it mostly retains mediocrities. Was that also the case 10 years... — read more 

It was never a joy working here but with RTO, layoffs, and micromanagement I've had to deal with since my old manager quit (Dale, come back, we all miss you!), my stress levels have gone through the roof. I think this is their way of getting rid of... — read more

As far as I could see from the news the explanation for announced layoffs is that they are performing a reorg and shrinking the workforce due to rising interest rates. Can anything similar happen at BofA in the near future? Any rumors about such... — read more 

Nobody can convince me that one department needs to go through three different reorganizations in as many years. Each of them served only to cut some people and shift some positions around. That's it. Nothing else was achieved. Why is this necessary?... — read more

Kind of funny that profits when down 12% for 1st quarter, during the same time RTO began.

If we are not a WFH company why are medical accommodations being honored for some employees to continue working from home?

We went back this week in London. Everyone looked miserable. There was not even a sanitiser put at our desks. The D&I head sneaked into his office without anyone noticing. Some teams are asked to come all 5 days a week. Everyone is hoping that the... — read more
