September 12 Layoff Numbers

Anyone have a sense of how many people were layed off on 9/12 and which teams were affected? Nothing has hit the news. Also heard that employees were told by their managers that the firm is not done (more to come over the next four months). That’s... — read more 

Notice period acknowledgement

I'm not sure where to even begin with this. The policy we are now being asked to acknowledge goes much further than just required notice periods. Depending on your salary grade/title, we are now required to agree that 30/60/90 days notice is... — read more

Our manager said nothing, but can I assume that we're safe for the remainder of this round? I can't imagine why they would spread layoffs within one group to more than one day. But then again, you can never tell with this bank and especially with... — read more

The state of the company

The state of this company is truly unfortunate, many good people ( across the spectrum ) were let go this past week and joking about it doesn’t make it any better. I’m sure there are some slackers in the mix too, but this really seems to be a... — read more

Gadget’s contract not renewed?

Hearing rumblings that Gadget’s contract didn’t get renewed and Robin is looking to replace her. No idea the veracity of these rumors, but since he took ops from her, seems plausible.

Monitoring Network Activity

I heard some rumblings that they are monitoring network activity now for RTO. So if you come in they will monitor your network usage and perhaps raise an alarm if there’s no activity. So badge swipes won’t just be the sole determinant. Anyone hear... — read more

More tone-deaf LinkedIn nonsense

So glad that Gru and his little minion got to hang out at the US Open (in a nice cushy suite, paid for by BNYM, no doubt. They'd break out in a rash if they had to sit with the common people.) And nice of them to post about it on LinkedIn, complete... — read more

RTO - Swipes

Is there any dashboard that employees have access to to check? The policy is confusing. 3 days week, but what if there is a holiday? Or you take a day off? Then you still need 3/4 days? What if you take 2 days off, then only need to come in 2/3... — read more
