Its not only higher ups who have made it unbearable but the team members as well who absolutely have no work ethic and never do their job or show up and Hr lets them get away with it. Hate all you ba----ds

Feels like there are way too many people just focused on meetings and reports instead of actual work. Lots of folks trying to cut perks and push people out instead of helping. The worst part is how it slows everything down and makes things harder for... — read more

Does anyone know the purpose of the random Wilm, DE Commuter Survey? I’m too suspicious to fill it in. Are they thinking of making us go back all day? Are they using this for layoffs? Are they going to make us move sooner then expected?

We should all know by now what RTO was really about - control. More importantly, it was designed to make as many people quit on their own as possible. Every new level of ridiculousness or barely manageable policy they roll out is just to gaslight you... — read more 

One thing I’ve learned the hard way is to never get too comfortable. Always have your resume ready and your network warm. The game can change overnight, and nobody gives you a heads-up. Treat this job like a stepping stone, not a safety net. That... — read more

What can we all do as employees to stand against this terrible mgmt and company they have become? We really should mass report to our local EOE, ethics and anyone else. Make sh-t difficult for them. Dont train those who you know are being prepped to... — read more 

I had my mid- year review today and was told I will be ranked as tracking towards below expectations. I don’t agree with it and have written evidence that disproves the points my manager raised. Does anyone know what happens next? If I don’t... — read more 

I’m sure anyone with half a functioning brain already knows the lunacy behind RTO mandates and the reality behind them (hoping for natural staff reduction without severance). But to put this idiocy into perspective, I witnessed two people having a... — read more

Extremely heartbreaking to watch good employees being let go.

I was asked to relocate to be able to work 4 days in office or I would be offered a severance package. Does anyone know what BNY offers for a severance package? Im just curios what that might look like.

What’s the scoop on this EXL partnership email that was sent on 7/11? Is the bts call center being faded away?

Lay me off, I'm begging you!
