What will be the consequences of such a strategy?

I really don't get the impression that BofA cares at all why people are leaving en masse. Leadership is rather short-sighted and now it seems that people leaving even suits them. The consequences of replacing great employees with new hires, some of... — read more 

Two people left my team so far due to RTO

Several more are seriously considering walking away and if they do, we're screwed. I think this might cause the kind of domino effect the leadership has not considered. They counted on some people leaving due to RTO but I'm not sure they counted of... — read more

The pay is not worth the treatment

When I first came here, it was common to colleagues hiding their tears. It was quite a shock to me at first but I never thought that such a thing would happen to me. Well, now I understand things better. I have a manager who recently put me in that... — read more 

This is why they're pushing for RTO so strongly

I saw this on the Wells Fargo page and reading the article left me furious. It makes perfect sense, though. Why would you force your employees into a situation that's going to create resentment and drop productivity unless there's something to gain... — read more 

The culture of Layoffs

Smaller banks are not the answer

Voluntary Severance

Does anyone know what is involved with asking to be severed? Besides, actually asking your manager, who has to take it to leadership for approval. Would this mean that my position would be classified as "job elimination" and my manager couldn't... — read more

Times are hard as it is

It’s kind of sad to see good employees leaving and you’re not the first or would be the last. Leadership in this company has failed in how they’re managing RTO. As someone said in another post, a bunch of outdated minds, set in their ways and not... — read more
