Funny thing - people in my Charlotte network are getting solicitations from recruiters about jobs that are obviously the ones just cut from EDA. It's pretty clear they are just flushing the toilet, and refilling the bowl. EDA needed that for sure -... — read more
Billy’s March Purpose
I didn’t want to listen to a thing the sellout said, but I clicked on it to read the comments. GOOD GRIEF! Some people have their heads so far up the Truist rear end they can’t see straight. What is funny is the two people who wrote the exact same... — read more
Layoffs seem to have slowed down
I'm starting to feel cautiously optimistic. It's gonna come back to bite me in the behind, isn't it?
Truist failing or being acquired
Who all would like to see Truist fail as a bank or be acquired by another financial institution? I sure would! Would love to see this bank go down!
Systems Slowdown
Truist sends down major updates on many Wealth systems and we freaking can’t do our work! I sent a message asking what was going on. Response? “Well, there are updates and it will work like before once they finish and you restart your... — read more
We should be allowed to volunteer for RIF
I know this would never happen, but it would be so great if they did. I bet 80% of the workforce would volunteer. While the C-suite is left in absolute shock.
Truist is becoming depleted of competent workers
At this rate we will be freed from even remotely competent people. Constant layoffs have been depleting the place, culture chases people away, many are leaving on their own after bonuses, and Truist’s rep is so bad that they are going to have a real... — read more
2 weeks notice after AIP payout
I’m putting my two weeks notice in 3/18, so my last day is 4/1. This is mainly for health insurance reasons. If your last day is between the first and 14th day of the month, your insurance benefits are good until the 14th. For those that have left... — read more
Merit "Increases"
Looks like the vast majority of folks are getting a paltry 2% merit increase this year regardless of actual performance. Coupled with the 2% 401k CUT, we all worked last year for a net 0% effect on our salary. Oh, but I'd wager my life savings that... — read more
Complete this sentence
Truist is…
401k Match
Anyone know when can employees expect 401k matches to show up in accounts?
Damage control
What will Truist’s fearless leaders do for damage control when they realize so many people left after bonus? Will they publish a video reminding teammates how great of a company it is and that we have a great opportunity to make a difference?
Ethics Office HR Legal in cahoots
Watched this now in HR and sitting in the second line. Employee claims go no where and never fully investigated. Mostly dropped or prematurely deemed unsubstantiated. If legal feels there could be ramifications negative to Truist they shut it... — read more
Somebody really f’d up
I got a two emails saying I was getting a bonus and it is 70% of target. The emails had about 10 or 12 other names of other people who were also getting bonuses. They got the exact same calculation. Since I can’t stand this company, I’m thinking... — read more

Does anyone know how leadership is determining who stays and who goes?
Truist is a corrupt company
If you work in digital and come across unscrupulous activities related to billing, please report to CFPB. All teammates should whistleblow to CFPB any unscrupulous activities they encounter that impact customers.
Reporting teammate for illegal dr-g use
Handbook says use of any and all illegal controlled substances will not be tolerated, even when not at work. Policy states dr-g tests will be administered if there is suspicion of illegal dr-g use. Anyone ever reported someone to HR if say you... — read more
Do not join this company
A recent post said it best — we are now SunTrust, and with that leadership team fully in place, “insular detached management, a view that employees are worthless, and bureaucratic chaos.” We are a company that identifies risk and cannot solve it. — read more
AIP CONVO TOMORROW
Are you ready?
Do you recall the day you first heard "Truist"?
I was in the Charlotte office. I will never forget it. I was d-mbfounded, and thought it had to be a mistake. Things have only gotten worse from that time since.
I don’t understand all the LinkedIn
“Inspirational” posts by leadership and employees alike. Like what is the point?
Happy with a new job
I was laid off relatively recently after years of dedicated work. I was initially very disappointed and angry. Then I found a new job, where I am so much more appreciated, better paid, and actually derive professional satisfaction from. It was only... — read more

Anyone left Truist for Wells Fargo who works as a Digital Product Manager? Was it worth it? How does the working culture compare? Pros/Cons? Please do share!
Suggestions for posts
Since Truist has so many different divisions, please don’t use acronyms. While a poster might know what they are talking about, others don’t. Well, except the mo--n who gets his jollys for the day with his AVP posts.

No hiring
It's been almost a year since we lost two team members, and we're still holding our breath for their replacements. Meanwhile, we're juggling all the tasks as we wait for the miracle to happen. This looks more and more like a sneaky tactic to pile on... — read more
Engagement and morale at an all time low
I’ve worked for several different financial institutions and companies. I’ve always been a highly engaged and motivated employee and have always received “Exceeds Expectations” on my performance reviews at other companies. I’ve been with Truist for... — read more
Systemwide Outage
Anyone experiencing system outage? Yesterday outages (AT&T, etc) was the result of a hack. Fun times ahead. Going to wish we could rewind the clock 5 years, but we can’t.
Another thread removed
You Teammates gotta to learn you can’t talk about Donta and DEI. It is not allowed.
The saddest thing about Truist
Your work, your dedication, and your results, no matter how good they are, will not have any relationship to either being promoted or being laid off. None of it matters at all. If you phone it in or if you give it 110%, it will not matter. Other... — read more

Truist needs an independent Chairman
In all seriousness, Truist needs an independent Chairman that sits on the BOD. Bill Rogers should not be CEO and Chairman. Companies perform best when the chairman is independent and they are not also part of executive leadership. The shareholders... — read more
Anyone else use a VPN
Just curious if anyone else uses a “no logs VPN” based in a country like Switzerland or Panama when making posts on this site? In the very rare event Truist pursues litigation and subpoenas to try and determine who made posts on this site, using a... — read more
Bye Insurance
So can we all agree we are going to be sc--wed once the deal closes? If you look at our earnings, insurance is the primary source of revenue for the company. We can’t rely on the gravy train from the sell to last long.
Major Depression
Anyone else developed major depression or another mental illness since working at Truist? I’ve worked for other banks and consulting firms and my mental health was great. Since being at Truist I have trouble sleeping, panic attacks and major... — read more
If you are not being appreciated you are in the wrong place
I am convinced that 90 plus percent of us are not appreciated and SunTruist doesn’t deserve us.
