HR is nothing but a joke
You’d think HR was here to help employees, but it feels more like their real job is keeping the board and execs happy. That's it. That's their only role. When push comes to shove, they don’t protect workers. They just deliver the message and do what... — read more
PIPs, rankings, evaluations - they're all just cover for cuts

Battle Royale enviroment
How true is it that the bank is forced ranking employees? I see this as unhealthy; it leads to backstabbing and people not being productive out of fear. I also think it will lead to sabotage from other members of your team. Is the bank really that... — read more

Lake Mary Office
I received an offer for an IT (AI Hub) role in Lake Mary, FL. Reading the reviews on this site have me second guessing accepting the offer. Is the Lake Mary office as toxic as the other office locations seem (based on comments)?

Peakon - not really anonymous?
I heard that people were fired over their negative comments on ‚anonymous’ peakon survey. Is it true that Peakon is not really anonymous? Is there anyone who can confirm that?

We need to come to the office four days a week starting in September, but for people in India, it won't start until next January
Robin Vince
While patting himself on the back for thr stock price increase, Robin Vince has achieved this by continuing to do layoffs and use any option to force long time loyal employees out of the company, and with no severance! Not surprising to see what... — read more
This place is so tiring
I just want to do the work I was hired to do and go home. But instead, I’m stuck in nonstop meetings where nothing gets figured out. It’s the same problems over and over, just louder. Half the time it feels like people are talking just to talk. It’s... — read more

Well, they did it. I guess they finally laid off most of HR. We now deal with a bot.

Walking away was so worth it
You know that moment when your old team suddenly needs three people to do the job you were doing solo? Well, it happened. Management never listened, never cared, until I finally walked away last month. Now they're scrambling. I feel for my teammates... — read more

How strong is the team ? One tech leader just left for an energy company .
Unfair rating
I see many posts on people getting unfair below or partial meets. Has anyone ever fought an on track mid year? My Review goes on and on about going above and beyond and doing outstanding work but than rating is an on track.

Weird vibes in the office lately. Any insight on when layoffs are happening is helpful.

Customer service failures
We're losing reputation and customers because we've outsourced too much and the result is a disaster. Getting cheaper employees in other countries will end up costing us much more when all is said and done.
SVPs and up just need someone to blame….
I posted this as a comment on another thread but I just want to hear everyone else’s opinions. I’ve been here for about 2 years now. I’m lucky to have a job but man does it su-k having to come in 3-4 days a week just to sit at a desk on calls with... — read more
