I heard that BNYMellon managers in India mistreat employees and treat them like ***t. They treat them like India’s cast-outcast system (the untouchables). Anyone in the U.S. reporting to managers in India? Please let us know how they treat you, or if... — read more

Anyone has a scoop on any planned office location closures? BNY Mellon has been trying to reduce real estate footprint and the cost associated with it through site consolidation and offshoring to India. Some are now calling it the Bank of India!

Are you guys starting to avoid for big name banks like BNY, JP Morgan, Bank of America, and more since they have yearly layoff?

the masses are subjected to browbeating, threats of termination, and 3 going to 4 or 5 days, and permanent WFH leaders are often the ones issuing the RTO mandates and threats. Great morale builder.

I am interested in what determines the amount of bonus one receives. If someone can explain in detail, I would be grateful. I'm wondering what's the logic behind it because I know slackers who got bigger bonuses than good employees.

No more Netflix! This directive came from Roman.

Have come across rumor that they may ask for 4 days in office per week from September. Rumor Mill location: NY If true, then at this point the work is not “Hybrid” anymore. Any more sources to this smoke?

Duration of payments will be based on some sort of seniority assessment. Maximum will be 12 weeks for MDs and above. Don’t know about the lower ranks, but it will be less. Brutal.
