A clear indication of the toxic atmosphere
I think there is no clearer indicator of an unhealthy atmosphere and low morale in a workplace than when those who have been laid off say that they are happy that they are finally out of this place. It really seems that there are more people... — read more
Ongoing Unemployment Eligibility Check-In with TMS

Specifics about your sub pay
Anyone get any specifics about their sub pay and how many weeks it'll be for you? The seperation docs are very generic and I don't want to guess what the system has me as. When I emailed HR they said they sent an email yday but I never received... — read more
Lump Sum Vs SUB?
If you do not sign the Separation Agreement, it would mean you declined the SUB. In that case is Lump Sump an option (forgoing unemployment payments)? Page 3 of the Separation Letter says something about Lump Sum retroactive payments if you don't... — read more

How about some counts from your OWPBA Analysis
For those fired, you should have received an WPBA Analysis.pdf to show that no age discrimination occurred. Can you post the number of employees affected and the name of your "Group Covered/Decisional Unit"?
Layoffs in audit

SUB Eligibility
I went through every single page of all the s#!t I got sent and kept seeing two things: You have to certify within after 5 days of receiving payment that you're still eligible (I'm assuming meaning you haven't taken up any work) through a third... — read more
So day one of post layoff heaven……
Got up early, went for a walk. Had a nice coffee and caught up on the news. About 11 am headed over to Barnes and Noble, had a coffee and skimmed through some books. Now am at the garage having my car serviced. Have not worried about a stupid... — read more
Terrible approach to layoffs
If the leadership thinks that cuts are inevitable, is it at least possible to ensure that layoffs are managed a little better so that people who were loyal would not leave with a bitter taste in their mouth and regret that they made any effort here... — read more

What changes do you expect after these layoffs?
While they talk about the positive changes they expect after the layoffs, I think that everything will only get worse.
I am angry and frustrated
Honestly, I did not think that I would be laid off after more than a decade of hard work, excellent performance and several promotions (fully deserved in my opinion). I am more angry about the very irrational and unfair targeting of employees than... — read more
Propaganda & lemmings

Q: Will I still get my bonus? A: Depends on the good graces of your management. If they like you, probably yes, if they don't, your bonus was likely meted out to the rest of your team. Q: Would people still get their pensions? A: Yes, the... — read more
BNY Mellon - Cowardness Continues
I was mercifully laid off from this gutless, miserable company a couple of years ago. I see that nothing has changed in 2023. They continue to torture hard-working individuals with layoff rumors. They will probably continue to let veteran, older... — read more
Layoffs are just getting started
It's just going to get worse and worse this year.
Am I the only one who's still worried?
Most of you think we're done. I wish I could feel as confident about it as you do. I guess I'll have to go through at least one more day of stressing before I can fully relax.
What happens if you don’t sign the paperwork?
Been here less than six months so just curious what could happen besides me losing one measly check?

The cuts were supposed to affect 3% of employees or around 1,500 people. Is there any way to know if that's how many were notified today? I'm trying to figure out if we're looking at several major rounds throughout the year of about 500 people each... — read more
Age discrimination at its finest.

Should I disclose disability now
Should I disclose expensive disability now in the wake of layoffs. Would it protect or hurt me?
I think the bulk of it is done
There might be some "cleanup" for the rest of the week, but I think they achieved what they intended to achieve today. Now we have to see how this latest round is going to affect those of us who are still here. We lost two more people on our team... — read more

I wonder if some LOB/divisions are being more adversely impacted than others?

Ruthless behavior
And they have the nerve to ask employees to 'act like owners'. No class. None.
My bosses boss let me go, never spoke to him before today - very disrespectful! I have been with the company 16 years
I am also almost 60, anyone else this age getting let go?
