Any news on what's supposedly coming?

No matter how out of touch, disrespectful, or irrational it may be. We’re treated like cogs in a machine that's constantly shifting. Tossed around like inanimate objects, controlled as if we were unruly children, and repeatedly disrespected despite... — read more

Thoughts on Justin Windschitl leaving and Mel Bargo taking his place?

I’m fully aware that our days are numbered. Even if I’m desperate enough to relocate near a hub and shoulder all the insane expenses, I could still lose the job a few months later. It’s clear RTO is being structured to force people out, and if my... — read more 

The way the bank is laser focusing on cuts cuts cuts, it makes me think its grooming itself to be attractive for somebody to a quite it…. And the MCs would cash out with their golden parachutes then… what about the rest?

Anyone catch EB’s comment around remote workers should consider moving to a hub city or be performing at a ‘high level’? Was that a threat or promise of what is to come for remote employees?!

So on the call, they said they are tracking people and expect everyone to be in office 8 hours. How are they tracking this? IP?

If what she said is true, a fifty percent efficiency ratio is two billion savings. Do the math... That's aroud 20K employees over the next.…

Never stepped foot in the office. Pretty sure I’m on a list somewhere, but I’m not wasting 2+ hours a day driving just to sit in a ghost town. Fire me if you want, I’m not quitting like you want me to:)

Does anybody know what's going on?

Is it just me? Driving into the office to sit there and stare at the screen is really doin the most to my mentals. I guess I’ll see how long I can stand getting paid to do nothing. This has been going on for almost a year now. Is this a tactic to get... — read more 

Everybody in my hub wants assigned seating- the desk reservations have gotten ridiculous. It was one of the most wanted items in the talk to us survey, do you think they'll do it?
