I’d like to know the logic upper mgmt and the executive committee has about letting go of good tenured staff for bullsh-t reasons such as wfh status they caused while thinking the company will benefit greatly from staff and mgrs who cant do sh-t and... — read more

Has anyone heard of any changes to in-office expectations from 4 days to 5 days in office?
Employment Attorney?
Anyone in NY/NJ have a good recommendation that was successful dealing with this God awful company?
Don’t use Eliza!!
Every time I walk around the office and see anyone with Eliza on their screen I just shake my head. Beside the fact that it’s not very good, I think it would be quite amazing to see the EC crash out if they saw a fat 0% use rate when they obsessively... — read more
Is this a real 'policy'?
VP II here, or as they call it now VP. I saw a SR VP position posted that was listed as a 'pipeline' position. They shouldn't list positions they aren't actually hiring for currently but I digress. I applied to it and let the hiring manager... — read more
Why are ALL sr directors AHs?
I don’t even care if I give myself away on here, because I need to say this. Over time, I’ve noticed a consistent pattern in how several senior directors operate, I’ve seen certain leaders target employees outside their own unit through gossip, and... — read more
The forced cheer is exhausting
We're stretched thin, underpaid, and drowning in work, but they keep organizing these mandatory happy events. Last month our manager brought snacks while pretending our 60-hour weeks don't exist. Is this just us? If not, does anyone actually feel... — read more

FU BNY
This place is so toxic you cant stand signing on. Nobody should dread sunday nights or any night going to work. This place seriously needs to be called out to the public for what it really is. Instead of the lies put out there in linkdin and... — read more
Read reviews of "Computershare"
I fell down a rabbit hole the other day. I was reading customer reviews of Computershare. Gave me nightmares and PTSD flashbacks of working in Global Payments at BNY. How can companies with such poor customer interaction and lack of knowledge... — read more
‘The Office’. How does this make sense?
A colleague of mine was fired yesterday. 6 months to retirement, but they fired him paying a severance package. How does this make sense? He was let go by a new manager appointed recently (6 promotions in 5 years - yeah, its possible) who doesn’t... — read more
Anybody wants to trade?
My manager is only capable of micromanaging, nitpicking, and creating problems out of nothing. That's it. That's his whole shtick. How these people get promoted is beyond me.
GENUINE QUESTION
I am supporting a team member with an accommodation to WFH due to a chronic illness. The likely balance will 50 percent in office and 50 percent at home. Totally genuine health condition, superb employee. In all seriousness, will this impact their... — read more
2026 Goals
Anyone get their goals? Why are there so many? This isn’t manageable. I don’t get what any of them have to do with me. Create 10% digital employees, reduce night shift by 75%. Um I don’t have staff, and I don’t work night shift. I’m assuming... — read more
Layoffs every 3 months?
As we just had layoffs the other day, do we expect to have layoffs in another three months? There’s a rumor of restructuring at the end of may which would coincide with this. Anyone else heard of this?
What about hiring
Is it just us, or is the hiring ban only 'optional' for certain teams? Anyone heard when they’re planning to unblock reqs? It's a nightmare now. We can't replace leavers
Strada Payroll Access Leavers
Can any kind soul remaining in the he-l of BNY access this link and share the Strada link? Thank you. https://mysource.bny.net/static-assets/hr/pdf2/Strada-Payroll-Access-Leavers.pdf
severance counteroffer
Has anyone counteroffer the initial severance package offered to them? If so, did you win get what you asked for? Or did they rescind the initial offer altogether?
Enough with the layoffs!
You can’t expect people to perform while there’s a constant axe over their heads. Living like this all the fu--ing time is inhumane.
Todays layoffs
Bny at it again today. Targeting wfh staff again. Whose teams got clipped this time?
OBP Open for business
There is no low that is low enough for these snakes
RTO - WFA Days 2026
Has anyone tried to use WFA days in 2026? Does the system force you to input 2 consecutive days, and does Friday/Monday count? Thanks.
Ops needs new mgrs and senior leaders
My god its nothing but incompetence. Take your wanna be fancy degrees and shove them where the sun doesn't shine because holy moly the amount of common sense added up together doesnt say much. Just give them back because none of you deserve them... — read more
Compensation shock has truly set in.
We’re seeing a significant decline in leadership engagement, which is directly impacting our ability to meet deadlines and maintain client satisfaction. The current culture has led to widespread morale issues. No one cares anymore.

RTO model
Does it actually matter whether your RTO is ‘above model’ or ‘on model’? Because showing up 4 days a week is enough tiring. Going beyond that starts to feel like voluntary suffering.
How are more people not complaining about P-M
If you are a PO, PM, scrum lead, BA, RTE in P-M - how are you not losing your mind? The amount of administrative BS we have to do is pure insanity. I have no other word for it. How, on gods green earth, is this an efficient way to work?
Are we now the cool kids?
Last few town halls, CEO in jeans and boots with huge belt buckle, now COO with jeans, sneakers, no collar shirt. Is this now the business casual standard? If so, I’m here for it.
5% Stock Bonus?
Does anyone know if/when those who received stock as part of bonus will receive or see shares?
Never looking back
Resignation never felt so sweet. Don't give up in the search and good luck to you all in this cr-p hole!
Made up positions
Anyone else seeing random positions created and prioritized over necessary reqs? Im seeing alot of it now and itn random locations not in the forced “growth locations”
As bad as BNY is, Pershing Management is worse, esp their Client Service Leadership
This company operates with an outdated mindset, and as a former Pershing Advisor Solutions employee, I saw firsthand how deeply the issues run. Strong performers were often pushed out or left on their own, while promotions frequently went to... — read more
Do Jim and Hani know where the skeletons are?
They haven’t been pushed out. They haven’t been removed from “power”. They have been given newly created positions. Conspiracy, or coincidence? Any normal person would have thought they would be sent off with the old guard, but do they know too... — read more

My BNY pros and cons list
Pros: a few decent coworkers who aren't management. Cons: everything else. Bad management, zero work-life balance, toxic politics, no growth, no security. The list goes on and on. Says a lot when the only good thing is some of the people.
BNY named for being most admired company
Most admired for what? Sh-----g on its employees the most? Maybe most admired for offshoring all our jobs and leaving americans with nothing. Oh wait i got it. Most admired for falsifying performance reviews , not even trying to hide it this time... — read more
