I'm not going to waste time going on and on about the same things but who is actually going in to work at 8/9 and staying till 5pm? Obviously RTO 5 days means working from the office all 5 days but there's no way in he-l the majority is willingly... — read more 

I haven’t left my house since, ya know, the global pandemic that ravaged our world sent us all to WFH. So this new and unexpected RTO has taken a major toll on my anxiety. My therapist wrote me a note to take to HR, detailing my agoraphobia... — read more 

What is this nonsensical RTO mandate going to cost you? Is RTO really all about foot traffic to justify the real estate investment? Are we secretly being used as pawns but told its for culture and collaboration but at the same time becoming a huge... — read more 

Did anyone else notice in the Kwapcast how they're already starting to soften the language about RTO? It was indicated that the reason they didn't go for a 3 day RTO is because they felt like they'd only be able to get people to do 1 and it was... — read more 

Hi. Any PNC corporate travelers out there? What are the real meal expense limits? Is it truly $20 for breakfast, $0 for lunch, and $40 for dinner? Also, are the meal time windows strictly observed? Thanks.

Once again a large police presence on Stanwix street yesterday late afternoon when a wanted female was chased and apprehended on federal firearm charges along with charges related to carjacking, kidnapping and robbery. The streets around the PNC... — read more 

Another wave of RTO emails went out today. Just like this place to send out bad news on a Friday. RTO date set for June 15th for those who got the email.

Anyone notice that the compensation bands have been removed from the internal site? When asked, HR stated that the information has been removed for undisclosed reasons. Thoughts? Theories?

They had a meeting today with Branch managers and are announcing it to ABMs tomorrow. They will have until June 3rd to find a new job with PNC or otherwise

Gas prices jumping just in time for return to office! Who else is stoked?! Good thing my comp review rewarded me 800 extra dollars for the whole year! Just in time

Inspirational stuff from the 2026 Proxy Statement. Bill’s total compensation jumped from $22M to over $29M (32%) this year. Meanwhile, in the cubicles, we’re out here debating if our 1.5% merit raise covers the gas for the new 5-day RTO mandate... — read more 

Two of our executives have recently announced they are departing PNC. One is our Corporate Responsibility Officer and the other is our Chief Information Security Officer. Though we may never know the real reason they are leaving, I find it very... — read more 

Been seeing a lot of comments on earlier posts about rumors of layoffs. Was wondering if there is a similar pattern between now and the last significant layoff in 2023? Just want to be prepared and not caught off guard. Thanks! (Apparently PNC didn’t... — read more 

I had been extremely worried about the five day return to office due to my medical conditions. My manager told me I had to go through ERIC, so a couple weeks ago I reached out to them. I was sent a form that I had to have my doctor complete. Once... — read more 

I know this a layoff forum so I apologize in advance if this sounds insensitive. Just trying to get a feel for the company since it’s 3 years before 401k/pension vest.

I’m considering an offer at PNC but want to know what it’s actually like. Is it five full days? Do people badge in and then leave at lunch and work the rest of the day at home? I don’t think I can ever go back to five full days but the role seems... — read more 

Heard through the grapevine people in HR have said that they expected more attrition after the 5 day RTO was announced. So from this you could infer that a major goal, if not THE goal of this was to reduce headcount. Also this means that layoffs are... — read more 

They want you to come back for the money. Pack your lunch, no drinks after work, you get in and get out. "Thousands of PNC workers will return to Downtown later this spring, and the company's Pittsburgh regional head says it could help jumpstart the... — read more 

Sorry, just needed to vent. This company is so stingy. I cannot believe they don’t reimburse lunch while traveling for business and have certain hours for dinner. I arrived at my hotel at 11:30 starving because I have been flying since 5 pm and I... — read more 

The compensation reviews this week are just another reminder that we are seen as nothing more than an expendable mouth to feed. Meets all expectations? We don’t care. Exceeds all expectations? Thanks for your free overtime. Remote work saved PNC... — read more

2% annual raise AND a 5 day RTO? This place never fails to amaze me lol 😂 The lowest raise possible even after exceeding expectations, buying a new bank, record profits, and an ATH stock market price… literally RUN if you think of staying or... — read more 

The leadership will wait to see how many people walk out due to RTO and other issues before they pull the trigger again. It's cheaper to find a way to get folks to leave than have to pay them to get them out.

I see many of my coworkers saying they plan to continue WFH despite the mandate. I'm jealous, honestly. But as the only income for my family, I can't take that chance. If they get fired, do they have a safety net? What's the thinking there? Genuinely... — read more 

Thinking a subreddit could potentially amplify some voices and bring in other folks who may be unfamiliar with this site.

Looking for insight or feedback from anyone that has had an experience with reporting retaliatory behavior from a manager to HR.

What is the phone number for PNC ETHICS HOTLINE? I need it urgently. Thank you.

As much as people are fighting it now, the reality is we'll adapt. We always do. The strong feelings about WFH will soften, and showing up at the office will go back to being the unremarkable default. It's inevitable. Sad but very much true.

HR and the higher-ups simply don't understand where we are coming from. No more speaking from emotion. We HAVE to speak in buzz words and LEGAL TERMS.

Anyone else get the vibe that layoffs are about to happen?

Think you're annoyed with just RTO? Buckle up, they're starting to install keystroke and tracking software on your laptops folks. Weather you're in office or dodged the bullet and get to work from home... Big Brother Demcheck wants to make sure... — read more

As pointed out on glassdoor a couple weeks ago {https://www.glassdoor.com/Reviews/Employee-Review-PNC-Financial-Services-Group-E507-RVW102269233.htm} this whole RTO5 will be very expensive for us. Min $20/day parking. If you can find parking. Need to... — read more 

How’s comp looking this year?

You think you're safe? First Bank inquisition, then RTO5. Next people quit, then the layoffs, then finally copilot instead of YOU. PNC truly cares about their customers...money. Not their employees, not even Pittsburgh residents.

We work at a financial services company. Many of us literally help clients build wealth for a living. So let’s talk about return-to-office in terms that should be very familiar to leadership: compounding, assets, and long-term value. Parking in the... — read more
