A State Street Christmas Carol

Jay Hooley

As much as some people on here didn't like Jay Hooley I think we will miss him in 2019. We did get some cost savings though. Jay was making 16 Million. Ron will only be getting 10 million this year.

Men will be the target

The company has diversity and financial goals to meet. If your peers are women and especially non-white women you will be the first to be shown the door. They get two birds with one stone. Cost savings and an instant boost in diversity ratio. So much... — read more

Plagiarism

I wonder if investors are aware of our CEOs dark past. We are pushing ESGs, but the guy running the ship withdrew from law school for plagiarism.

Strategy

Does anyone know what the strategy is for 2019? If you are reassigned to delivery are you doomed? What about client service? It seems like they want to get rid of COEs.

Spans and Layers

CRD

Did anyone notice the 30% decline in stock price? That's what happens when you spend 2 Billion on an acquisition and have nothing to show for it. They are going to move as much work to india to make up for it.

I'm not sure where all the worry is coming from. What I'm reading seem to be mostly rumors that never materialize, and we haven't had any layoffs in quite a while, from what I can see. Not that there'll be no more layoffs, I know there will be, but... — read more

The flawed business strategy

State Street's problems have nothing to do with the "globalist" vs "nationalist" debate. If only it was that simple.... The company's stock is down almost 30% YTD. Far more than the declines in the stock prices of bank of NY, Northern trust or JP... — read more
