Worse place to work this bank treats their employees like trash.

This is my third bank. All are bad, but this one is the worst. I come across stuff that seems like a remnant from the previous century. With all that fancy management and hefty consultant fees, you'd think they would have streamlined some processes by now. AI would short-circuit trying to deal with this place.

151 laid off today. counting

Anyone get the official notice for the WPE changes yet via email? It was supposed to be this week.

Anyone else concerned about reporting to office with Iran threatening to attack US Banks?

with the 15th being a holiday will they sell on 3/16 or 3/13

this happened to me with Wells Fargo and I decided I had to break up with them after half my life banking with them. my conversation with customer service was hilarious though:
WF: can I ask why you're leaving us today? me: your interest rates are making me broke WF: I can totally understand that. let's continue with your cancellation

Does anyone know when the 2026 RSUs that were awarded will show in our benefits online account?

The largest employee migration in Bank of America Company’s history has begun following the February bonus and 401(k) contributions. While some employees are waiting until the end of March for their RSUs to vest, many senior leaders are departing after receiving substantial bonus payouts.🤫

So today was the first day of phase 1 of this bank restructuring/re-org. Not only was my team disbanded, but our BA & BBPC were impacted on January 28, and those 2 did a ton of work and were the main reasons we were able to closeout our 6 issues on time last year. With them now gone, someone has to pick up that work, so it landed on ME! So now I’m on this new team, handling a different product, so not only I’m I having to learn this product, but the work from our BA & BBPC still falls on me, I asked my new ED about this, she only said “we haven’t fully thought all this out yet, but stick with us, we’re all learning on the spot.”

Learning on the spot, what genius thought this re-org was a great idea? Was it Mike Moran and the 3rd party consultant group he brought in last year? This is going to be a huge cluster f_ck before it’s all said and done.

In the long run, we'll all work for ICBC

6 out of last 7 yrs no profit. two key dates. Market crashes right around 3:16. 4:1 is a critical date b/c if MoA is not in the black by then turning a profit, it's almost lights out, game over for the firm. It's not funny. 1st quarter numbers can not be overstated. Be transparent. B-E-transparent. Rich said profit by Q4 2026 & he needs to be held to his own standard. If we are $5-$10M in the negative as of 4/1 firm will have a tough time the rest of year & to quote sleepy Joe, "it's not a joke."

I told a stranger I work at WF
And they said "must be nice to handle large amounts of cash"

I like how the bank sits on our money earning interest for a week prior to paying it out. Should be criminal.

There are quite a few rumors circulating, so I wanted to check if anyone else has heard anything.

2013 changes to risk capital largely led banks to withdraw from the market. Now its companies like Rocketmortage. This has led to higher mortage rates because banks have cheaper funding (deposits).

Fed is going to change the rules so to incentivize banks to re enter the market, both the risk weights for mortages and mortage servicing rights.

Itll be a growth market for banks.

Too bad chainsaw charlie doesnt know how to grow a business and after 5 years of bi weekly thrashing to the corporate culture no one wants to work at Wells Fu----u

Citi did extraordinary well in 2025 and made it's position top among global banks and J got a 42 million etc but how did it happen? They are cutting left and right, people are overworking, or not working (like me,got fed up with lowest rating). So it's the FEAR which is working, is it?

Going to be small but Community and Commercial banking are going to lose some Executive Directors and possibly one Managing Director.

I'm a relationship banker at a truist branch. I got a licensed banker role with chase and will be giving notice next week. Does truist typically make bankers work out their last 2 weeks?

End of the world layoffs…..

The tech middle to upper management were they have an understanding from a technology perceptive of things but no concept on client delivery/product functionality/product use case is so useless. Please hire additional leadership and get leaders that are from the banking space and understand the market we are in.

They don't code so they don't make money, they have no domain knowledge except vaguely what every product does, and their ideas for improving products are not aligned with that clients are asking for.

This company should be focused on client delivery from top to bottom. We will never be one of the worlds greatest software companies, but we can be the worlds best banking company.

If you were gifted the 6 BNY stocks in 2023, friendly reminder that today is the day they become unrestricted, and the shares are now available to sell. ; )

Too many weird financial requests for information from 2-3 years ago. Stop telling us "Audit requests" or "forecast" we are not that stupid, since prior fiscal years have already been audited.

Those losers who didn't listen are hiding in bathroom now... Next wee or so the rest of 12-15%.. Another 5% by EOY. 35% NFTE by EndOfYear.

Some Ds and NY area staff today.

Imagine you are an AI agent. Explain BOA culture with specific examples

What is happening with the Bank Ways of Working announced yesterday in the town hall? When are we getting more information?

Hello, Does a Team Member Checking stay a Team Member Checking through the 60 day Non working employee period? Is it possible it could stay a Team Member Checking for the other 12 months of severance when the 60 days expires? BTW, Wells Fargo has excellent service for check ordering. I was worried with the Ice and bad weather it may take more than 10-14 days for my checks to arrive. I received them today. Thank you Wells Fargo and your check supplier.

Heard some rumors layoffs happened today. Any validity to that? TAS and mortgage were mentioned.

If you’re in Global Ops you received a 226 page document that apparently shows the entire nation of India got a title promotion. Wild stuff.
