Anyone get laid off from audit?

I went through every single page of all the s#!t I got sent and kept seeing two things: You have to certify within after 5 days of receiving payment that you're still eligible (I'm assuming meaning you haven't taken up any work) through a third... — read more 

Got up early, went for a walk. Had a nice coffee and caught up on the news. About 11 am headed over to Barnes and Noble, had a coffee and skimmed through some books. Now am at the garage having my car serviced. Have not worried about a stupid... — read more 

If the leadership thinks that cuts are inevitable, is it at least possible to ensure that layoffs are managed a little better so that people who were loyal would not leave with a bitter taste in their mouth and regret that they made any effort here... — read more

I love how BNYM boasting themselves attending this meeting. what good does the WEF do ? I love it even more theres this guy questioning the agenda of "you will own nothing and will be happy" I hope he doesnt go into the layoff list, or he probably... — read more 

I’ve been OOO all week. What should I expect when I return?

did you get the usual 2%? bonus less or flat at best?

While they talk about the positive changes they expect after the layoffs, I think that everything will only get worse.

Honestly, I did not think that I would be laid off after more than a decade of hard work, excellent performance and several promotions (fully deserved in my opinion). I am more angry about the very irrational and unfair targeting of employees than... — read more 

Oh the propaganda Instead of talking about the number of staff let go they talk about “changes” & “ opportunities” that will be forth coming due to these “ changes” & some gutless boot lickers on the call with the head... — read more 

Q: Will I still get my bonus? A: Depends on the good graces of your management. If they like you, probably yes, if they don't, your bonus was likely meted out to the rest of your team. Q: Would people still get their pensions? A: Yes, the... — read more 

I was mercifully laid off from this gutless, miserable company a couple of years ago. I see that nothing has changed in 2023. They continue to torture hard-working individuals with layoff rumors. They will probably continue to let veteran, older... — read more 

It's just going to get worse and worse this year.

Most of you think we're done. I wish I could feel as confident about it as you do. I guess I'll have to go through at least one more day of stressing before I can fully relax.

Been here less than six months so just curious what could happen besides me losing one measly check?

The cuts were supposed to affect 3% of employees or around 1,500 people. Is there any way to know if that's how many were notified today? I'm trying to figure out if we're looking at several major rounds throughout the year of about 500 people each... — read more 

I know of at least 30 people from Pershing Technology that were let go today. Every single person was over 50 and many over 60. Personally if I was on that list I would sue the company for age discrimination. I would love to post a truly... — read more 

Should I disclose expensive disability now in the wake of layoffs. Would it protect or hurt me?

There might be some "cleanup" for the rest of the week, but I think they achieved what they intended to achieve today. Now we have to see how this latest round is going to affect those of us who are still here. We lost two more people on our team... — read more 

I wonder if some LOB/divisions are being more adversely impacted than others?

Seems like those 50+ are at the heat of these layoffs…. Age discrimination… higher paid talent in return for younger cheaper workers…. Hard to pin but smells a bit off!!!!

Anyone received confirmation?

Why are they laying people off when almost every area is severely short staffed and cannot fill reqs ?

OK let's share info about next steps....some basic things: system access was suspended as of today. How do we get our W-2's? If one is on severance for X-X weeks, when can one file for unemployment benefits? Like the other poster have not... — read more 

And they have the nerve to ask employees to 'act like owners'. No class. None.

I am also almost 60, anyone else this age getting let go?

What a glorious day! BUT, right after my manger's manager was done with me, I got two emails from BNY (at company email) about returning equipment. The problem is that my XID was immediately deactivated afterwards, so the link to look at request was... — read more

Or is it all week?

Or an email? What should we be on the lookout for?

It's knowing that so many of us who are hard workers are stressing because we know there's a good chance we'll be given our walking papers today, while all the slackers whose only quality is knowing how to kiss the right butts are having a regular... — read more 

If you've received your notification or know somebody else who did, please post here so we can have everything in one place and hopefully get a better picture of today's layoffs and how things are developing. If you don't mind, please add your... — read more
