Micromanaging is starting to drive me crazy
What is happening to me now I wouldn't even call micromanagement. It's worse than micromanagement and it's become extremely stressful to have to deal with it on a daily basis. And no, there wasn't any incident that brought the level of trust down... — read more
Flexibility Announcement
Thoughts? Seems like it will be very role focused. Seems the most flexible are specific roles that allow for 2 days a week from home max.

Today's the day
Today we find out if the cuts will continue or if they'll intensify. It all depends on the quarterly results. I'd like to believe that things will turn out okay but I'm a realist and not an optimist for a reason. Chances are higher that we are going... — read more
On vacation, now laid off
Received via Fed Ex , services n Ionger needed . This while on PTO. Was here 17 years. Sadly no longer.
Hybrid announcement coming soon?
I heard we should know something by the end of the month about hybrid. Then it would go into effect at the first of the year. I’m current five days a week in office so this would be nice. I worry they will do something like Monday, Wednesday, Friday... — read more

Covid Supplies Missing
In Jersey City, on my floor they removed the table that held the masks, hand sanitizers, and alcohol wipes. For those who come into the office, has anyone else noticed this in their areas yet?
Chris Rock, everyone!

Ways of trying to get rid of employees without laying them off
Apart from the fact that I have much more work to do than ever, this happens too: the manager tells me at the last minute that the priority is to do something. The deadline is of course the shortest possible. After that, it turns out that this... — read more
How come there's no news on more cuts?

Constant enormous pressure
I wouldn't be here today if it had always been like that. What I am experiencing now is not even micromanagement, it is worse than micromanagement. How are we supposed to work under so much pressure? Are they aware that the risk of making... — read more
Lack of respect from leadership
Lack of respect towards employees is my biggest issue here. Several managers have a myriad of complaints against them but nobody cares. Nobody wants to deal with it because the ones being bullied are not high enough to matter. No matter how many... — read more

How is the attendance in your office nowadays?
Is it still low? Are people there or are they just not showing up? It would be interesting to compare all the locations. I'm in NYC and my office is half empty.
People say "act your wage"
I mean, it's easy to tell someone act your wage and don't do work for three people. In practice, it is not so simple. I once made a mistake when I showed that I could do more work and since then I have been constantly getting more to do. I think it... — read more

B4 Business Control Manager Salary
Does anyone know what the salary range is for a band 4 Business Control Manager in Charlotte, NC? Presented with an offer and trying to determine % I should counter. Any advice?
flexible?
Anyone know the flexibility the bank will announce? In terms of if they will come out with hybrid? I feel like they need to do something at this point to compete with other banks/employers. Does anyone know?
Please give me the package
The only thing I hope for now is a package, so I can finally leave this place in peace and forget about this absolutely awful leadership. Unfortunately, I think that a poll would probably show that more than half of the employees think the same.
This will be fun

Constantly hurting the morale of the best and most loyal
My mistake is that I didn't leave here long ago, but this place used to be much different. Someone asked an excellent question - is it the incompetence or is BoA intentionally hurting the morale of the best and most loyal?
Egomaniac manager
You must know the type: he or she is always right, no matter what. It doesn't matter if their "solution" will harm the bank and/or the client, they'll do their thing because nobody can be smarter than they are. How the he-l do you deal with a manager... — read more
