No good competent employee should ever have to deal with animosity and backstabbing inherent in mediocrities. I have been here for a long time and I claim that there has never been so much mediocrity here as now. The hiring process was much more... — read more
Wow!!! Truist No SuperBowl Commercial
Truist must be in bad shape with all the money that has to be paid out this year for Early Retirement and Service Packages. This was your time to Build Better Lives and stand out from the rest. Mmmm....
Describe Truist
How would you describe Truist in one word?
Truist is such a mess
I wonder what level of incompetence it takes to take two banks (each with its own problems) and instead of using the perfect opportunity to fix what's wrong, you end up creating even more problems that result in a new bank that is worse than both of... — read more
VSRP Senior Executives
3/31 you will see another group leaving the bank. This group consisted of higher level Senior Executives that took the package but because of their level of authority, had to stay in their positions until the end of the 1st quarter. Most of these... — read more
How were raises this year?
I'm no longer at Truist but I admit to being curious how they handled raises and bonuses.
Why are clients not leaving in droves?
Why won't they all just take their business elsewhere, thereby lending credibility to my irrational hatred of this company??? ; )
Why are clients leaving in droves?
Some think it's because of the merger, while others claim that it's for other reasons.
Shameful
It is really sad what this Company has turned in to. I have worked thru mergers before & have never seen anything like this before. 2 to 3 people in a branch having to handle both lobby , drive thru & phones & expected to take no lunch, hours... — read more
F this POS company
I'm out of here. Management do not care about the well-being of employees.
Branch slaves plotting to quit together
So the area I am in has been the black sheep in the family. We have 2-3 people to a branch. Goals have increased, yet hours are being cut. What little bit of branch employees we have have been plotting and on board with resigning in the coming... — read more
January 20 and still no layoffs
What gives?
I dissuaded a friend from joining Truist
She was excited to tell me she got an offer from Truist and another smaller bank, but I told her not to even think about joining this place. She was surprised since she thought I liked my job and I did, but that was when I worked for BB&T. I told... — read more
Truist Chief Audit Officer
So let this sink in. We hired the Chief Auditor Officer who was responsible for overseeing risk and compliance at UnionBank, who got a Public Consent Order....really? So she oversaw years of risk neglect and failed audits and we thought it was a... — read more
Is there any one person running the merger?
Sincere questions here: Is there one authority, e.g, a steering committee, individual(s), consultant, which has been identified as making final decisions and having the overall merger plan? Is there an overall merger plan? From the outside... — read more
Almost 3 years since the merger was announced (Feb.2019).....
I went to a branch to get a Truist Visa gift card after seeing it advertised on the Truist website. The teller told me that only BB&T account holders, not SunTrust clients, could purchase Truist Visa gift cards. The bank manager confirmed it.... I... — read more
Closing branch team mates get letter to work remote .
Some people of closing branches received emails offering them to do temporary remote work for the helpline . They would receive 2,500 if they completed the 4 month work assignment. The team mates will then be placed in a branch within 25 miles from... — read more
The merger has all but ki---d my motivation
I enjoyed my job while I still worked for BB&T. It wasn't perfect but it was good enough that I didn't dread going into work and I wanted to do my best to keep it that way. Since we became a part of Truist, things have changed drastically. Job... — read more
It's about time
I've heard more layoffs might be in the works next year and I won't be here to worry about them. As of next week, I'll no longer be working here. That's the best present I could have given myself for both Christmas and New Year. I hope all of you who... — read more
What’s Going On In Compliance?
Left months ago but curious if Compliance “teammates” are doing OK? Everyone still happy?
Management loves to blame down
Just like bullies love to punch down, the management at Truist loves to blame down. Nothing is ever their fault. Even when something was clearly their responsibility they'll find a way to lay the blame on one of us. There's nothing much for us to do... — read more
Back to work
I am guessing that BTW will be delayed until March which is fine because these new office configurations are completely nuts.
Management is not connected to reality
The things they expect from us are not in the realm of possibility and yet they keep insisting they get done. They don't care if it's possible or not, but they want it done. When something doesn't get done - and it's always a 'when' and not an 'if'... — read more
#TimeForCare and other social media post
Check out Twitter and Facebook. Every time Truist post something like #TimeForCare, they get all kind of negative responses from customers. I would hate to have the job of responding to all the comments and questions. Here is one of many... — read more
I have a radical idea
How about...wait for it...wait for it...we start promoting competent people who know how to do their jobs once again instead of friends and cousins of management and run-of-the-mill sycophants? How about it? How about we reward good people for their... — read more
United Way contributions are down this year
United Way contributions are down this year and we keep getting emails to contribute and volunteer, The deadline was extended to get more contributions. No wonder, with the threat of layoffs and being treated like cr-p, folks don't feel generous. — read more
The new recipe for success
Being successful at Truist has absolutely nothing to do with hard work, or even having the skill set to be a competent banker. Tell your boss all his/her ideas are fantastic, shuffle spreadsheets, join your boss in sneering at clients when they have... — read more
Truist 800 number is always experiencing longer than normal wait times!!
Every time I call Truist for help the anticipated wait time is over an hour! How does this company plan to fix this issue? Do they even care if customers leave?
Thank you Truist
Thank you hBBT and Truist for a couple good years. MoE forced me to go on a job market and I was able to double my compensation. If not for MoE, I would have probably stuck at dinosaur hBBT - becoming less-competent and less-competitive day by... — read more
I don't get this much hate
Is Truist perfect? No. Is it as horrible as some are making it sound to be? Also no. There was a merger, things have had to change. Some things changed for the better, some changed for the worse. It's the nature of the beast. Put on your big boy/girl... — read more
I didn't expect this
I expected many things from the merger but I didn't expect to see the company culture change as drastically as it has for the worse so quickly. Now Truist management keeps claiming they care for their employees, but that couldn't be further from the... — read more
Competition
I would like to know if Truist is still competing with competitors or has it lost sight of the competition a long time ago? Employees, on the other hand, compete more than ever, but in a very bad way. That's probably the reason why the best... — read more
Everybody is leaving
It's easier to find a person NOT looking to leave than those who are planning their exit.
November Layoff Updates?
Are there any layoffs or news in the pipeline for this month?
I don't expect them to fix things here
It has become much harder to work here than it's ever been. In a company that cares about preserving its reputation and being successful, the priority would be to fix the issues that employees face. However, I think it is impossible to expect that... — read more
UGHHHHHHH
Why is it so damn depressing going into work? I used to look forward to the lively atmosphere and challenging work. Now everyone seems to be walking on eggshells and talking in hushed tones. Things are drab, boring and silent. After a year and a half... — read more
November & December Layoffs?
Any chatter on if there will be any layoffs, etc. in November & December?
