Like, really? Everything I hear is so vague and general, there are no real details on that. I only associate that with more micromanagement but nothing more specific in terms of processes or so. Is this another fancy way of doing noise for... — read more
Lay offs?
I know lay offs are happening all around us. Duh. Any word from managers on this forum who can speak to lay offs for BAH folks? Year end is looming…..job market su-ks!
No severence for you!
Management is pressuring to stop severence now only in rare cases. With the revised year end process, management is making it all about performance. If you are deemed partial or not meeting in any sense, you are subject to dismissal with no... — read more
Year End People Process
Is being done using Ai We are fu---d.
Maybe being laid off is not that bad
I saw a coworker’s post who took the severance last year and guy’s on a beach somewhere, looks healthy and happy for the first time in ages. It definitely made me stop scrolling for a second and wonder what I’m still doing here.
What is happening with Pershing?
I've noticed this year in particular a highly unfavorable balance of BD deconversions/terminations, relative to the amount of firms onboarded. I know Pershing is only one slice of the BNY pie. Between the exodus of clients under our clearing business... — read more
Testing the waters. Salary range
Can anyone on here tell me what a reasonable range for a VP job in Lake Mary would be (formally K grade prior to the restructure). Glassdoor is useless. I know I’ll get more trolls than help on this post but maybe 1 honest prisoner of this place will... — read more
No Confidence Vote
Wanted to bring up something that has been bothering me for quite some time, and I believe it's important for us to have some meaningful discussion about it with those charged with the responsibility. Have you noticed that none of the senior... — read more

RV literally bragging about taking more U.S jobs
Contact your local senate office for the district you live in. Bring as much light to this as you can because if he has his way all americans will be out of a job soon. All he cares about is India and now Manchester his homeland.
RV, Trump already knows about your corrupt and evil master plan to eliminate American workforce for India.
What will you be thinking under oath when it hits the fan “U.S. Senate Committee hearing”?
Double sign on
Whoever’s bright idea it was for all of these multiple passwords and apps used to sign into various applications, especially now needing your lan and Microsoft Authenticator for baseline, congrats on your promotion you d-mb c*nt :)
BAH employee descrimination
All bah who feel they are being discriminated against for any reason whether it be wfh status, recognition, merit, promotion etc all because of that forced status need to turn this place in to your states EEOC equal opportunity employment commission
Monkey see monkey do

Layoffs for the remainder of 2025
Can anyone confirm the timings for remaining layoffs this year? Heard first week of November with massive target of WFH. Disgusting how this company values location and DEI numbers over retaining SMEs and high performing, loyal long time... — read more
Some thoughts on H1B
Here are the reasons why many people are upset with a certain group: 1. One group takes up more than 70% of the entire H-1B program. 2. As we all know, some consulting companies abuse the H-1B system because one person can apply multiple times... — read more

H1B Visa = $100,000 fee soon?

New H1Bs
Does this mean more outsourcing or more US hiring? I would hope it puts a hiring pause in place. I could see outsourcing being the next target.
RTO - 7 hours minimum in office
I have heard rumors of an MD meeting that took place recently, need to be in the office minimum 7 hours. Abusing thing will lead to being on the naughty list.
P-M
Sick of these sr leaders talking this sh-t up “just to increase stocks cause nobody else is doing it”. Bny is behind on everything including updated systems and this P-M is garbage, isnt functional and its filled with mo--ns who dont have anything to... — read more
Talent retention
I know this is likely a moot point considering how we in the US are viewed but is it true that the highest pay jump you can receive only 15%. So if you jump from say G to I or H to J you can only receive a 15% raise? How does the firm retain talent... — read more
What is happening to T&D in Edinburgh?
What are the future plans for T&D in Edinburgh? The fact that we are currently based in a WeWork office, which is a co-working space, does not seem very promising..

I'm exhausted
We’ve got more tasks than people, and somehow the management expects miracles. Nobody complains out loud anymore because we all know full well it doesn’t matter. We just get our heads down, grind through it, and hope we don’t get fired in the... — read more

These surveys are a total joke and a trap
The survey questions are not actionable and there is no accountability for the results or corrective action. There used to be a third party that would tabulate and report the results. Now this reporting is managed internally and there is no privacy... — read more
This job feels like an abusive relationship and it’s breaking me down
I used to feel confident but now I doubt myself every single day because of the favoritism and gaslighting here. Even as a top performer I’ve never felt so low about my work. It’s utterly exhausting trying to hold it together and I don’t know how... — read more

Pittsburgh
The Pittsburgh leadership team has fostered a foul work environment where it is okay to be unprofessional and racist. Look around, minorities do not thrive in this office.
Peakon Surveys are a JOKE!!!!!
The most inefficient survey. Not sure why everything is open ended… how are you supposed to collect quantitative data that way to measure against a benchmark or standard? Why do we get surveyed so often with little to no change being made in between?... — read more

RTO - we're not all created equal again
The Agile crew is still chilling with their sweet 2-day setup.
Year end merit bonuses
I started in January as an engineer and was told a 5-10% merit bonus is typical. Other engineers under my manager have said in past years they have received bonuses. Is this true? When do we know if we get one and when are they paid out?
This is not a winning strategy
The so-called “low cost country” strategy has gutted entire departments and cost us some of our best people. Moving work overseas might save money on paper, but the loss of knowledge, morale, and quality is enormous. The people making these decisions... — read more
Thoughts on the dissolution of Corporate Trust
curious to know everyone's thoughts on the future of corporate trust
RTO isnt gonna work
Do they even want us to work or not? When I arrive at the office, most of my team members have already logged off, since I’m the only one in the U.S. and the rest are in India. At this point, it feels like they’re just trying to tell us to give up
Any shift in hiring
With everything going on with H1Bs and talks about an outsourcing tax has BNY thought about focusing more on hiring in the US? The tax itself seems unlikely, but it still is going to influence the amount of outsourcing a company does. Can’t have all... — read more
Micromanaging all of a sudden? Hmmm
Anyone else’s managers suddenly started micromanaging THE HE-L out of them??!?! No??? Just me??!! My boss straight up asked me why I’ve been away from my desk for so long because they stalked my Teams status (I put a hold on my calendar) and when I... — read more
