Here's the missing question from todays GOTWire What are your thoughts on Women's Equality Day? All I am thinking here is the 'Animal Farm'. Thank you for another laugh, BNYM.

Companies push jobs offshore because companies are not required to disclose where in the world employees are physically located and the cost savings to the company are incredible. A corporation will do ANYTHING - even highly if its questionable and... — read more 

My thoughts are with the young guy in Dublin office. Doing his best, and subjected to multiple BE ratings, and now going for counselling. Opposite effect is the result - demotivated, depressed. I told him about forced rankings... He did not believe... — read more 

Hahaha Those of you on the CTC thread going around will get the joke. Just wondering how many more reply all we will see today.

Whats going on with talks of agreement with Grayscale? Is ittime to pull plug, Bag Hldr s. thanks Jim Kramer

Anyone else noting this? I know of at least ten people that have recently left TS over the summer.

Many colleagues work extra hours for nothing, probably hoping to make sure they stay a little longer at BNY Mellon. People neglect their private lives because of this place. And what happens in the end? It all turns out to be in vain. It is those who... — read more 

So many people are willing to walk away due to RTO that those of us who stay will be screwed when it's all said and done. Imagine how many jobs we'll have to do before they're able to backfill those positions in the current job market. Do you think... — read more 

did people get laid off recently? Who on this site got laid off? how many overall? what groups? did they get a sub? some info about layoffs might be good on a site that is supposed to be about layoffs - not just complaints.

There is NO reason the bank has to ambush us when they decide to cut headcount. A successful company should have a long term plan and shouldn't be reacting day by day to micro changes in the world. We should know the work we plan to do and how many... — read more 

Hope it's not as bad a Sandy since our genieAss leaders decided to consolidate all our offices.

I asked my boss in my business unit about early retirement and he wishes they offered it but they don’t. Instead, managers get the names of people that want to retire in the coming months, typically older. They rank , the older people “below” and... — read more 

No job is secure, but what is happening at BNYM is very tiring. Constant pressure on employees with layoffs also means constant work in fear and uncertainty. How can anyone be relaxed and give their best in such an atmosphere? This should be seen as... — read more 

Its none of their business if you get vaccinated or not. It is not their decision for you to get vaccinated, it is your choice. If you want to get vaccinated, then by all means get the vaccine. But if you don't want to be vaccinated, then stand up... — read more 

I worked for GS in 2000-2008 - I saw a lot of bloodbaths

It's the best I've had so far, and I've worked at three major banks and one regional bank during my more than twenty years long career. It bothers me when people put down BNY Mellon when they have no idea what it's really like to work for the likes... — read more 

Another rat jumps ship. Off to Wells Fargo Good times with chainsaw Charlie. Keep cutting the worker bees padding the FAT

Is this really work life balance when the company is mandating covid vaccinations? My philosophy working for this company has always been that I work to live, not live to work. BNY Mellon is my job, not my life. My job doesn't make life decisions... — read more 

This whole layoffs thing is making me want to quit on my own. I'm old enough and I've been here long enough to remember the time when this place had job security. Heaving to live constantly with the stress of potential layoffs is not healthy for any... — read more

Is there anyone who has not gotten one yet? They were due 7/31 and yet myself and some other members of the team have received nothing yet while others Atleast got it to review and approve even though they never even got a meeting to discuss it

I'm sick of hearing about efficiency savings because I don’t think it’s about efficient savings at all. They cut people who brought new values and who were really great, and they intend to continue to do so. Isn't that too much savings? When will... — read more 

Fat severance for a job I didn’t like anyway? Thanks!

Just got whacked and would assume a lot more is coming. Todd is doing me a favor to force me out of this dumpster fire and I give him less than a year before he gets canned which would just continue what is the CEO carousel (you know it’s bad when... — read more

I assume since these operate the same way as the Fugio devices in office that they can then track our tags at home once we get them. Wouldn't be able to get much info, but still I plan on putting my tag in a Faraday bag once it arrives.

Brace yourselves ! Talk is going around from higher ups that if you didn’t get the shot they are terminating your position and there are no more severance packages being given either

RTO has been pushed back to October 1st. How benevolent of them. Probably stopped a wave of retirements/ resignations!!!!!😎 Glad I held off buying my September train ticket

Received notification of an overnight letter arriving tomorrow from BNY. I'm speculating due to my vaccination status.

I refuse to go backward. I'll quit even if I don't have a new job lined up before I'll be forced to return. If this is their goal and I'm playing right into their hands, I don't give a fu-k. There are plenty of options to choose from right now and... — read more

BNY Mellon is once again proving that it doesn't care one bit about its employees and their wishes. They'll put all of us at risk to bring us back to the office for no good reason despite the overwhelming majority of employees preferring WFH. This is... — read more
