I am helping my niece to find a new job. She is a young accountant and was just laid off from BNY Mellon. What you don't know is that for the past couple of months, she and her colleagues were forced to train their Indian replacements. I don't... — read more 

Any ex-employees here who were laid off this past Monday and have been denied severance? If so, for what reasons and how was it communicated? That seems really low!

Was brought in on a to-hire contract this past June. Our dept spans 2 locations (Pittsburgh, Boston). 7 people have been fired/left/“left” in the past 7 months. I was told that if a full time spot opens I’d be offered but now feeling a little... — read more 

Letting people go with no warning - speaking of the job elimination, not BE’s. People here 20, 30 even 40 years without being able to say good bye was bad enough. Now we are simply given a link to a portal, a portal that does not work. And... — read more 

What happened to quality service? Everything has been given to India. They run our web exes , run help desk and cannot figure sh– out. You cannot understand a word they say and they have no clue how to do the work but let’s let go all the people... — read more 

Heard that BNYM will do a hiring wave in February now that current layoffs are underway.

Curious as to how BNYM gets away with blatant age discrimination. Maybe by keeping Todd. Trying to think of a worse way to let people go. Send them a link to a portal that does not work and have them go figure it out themselves. Nice work Todd. — read more

If you were lucky enough to still be employed after this week brace yourselves. More layoffs slated for mid March, June, and September. Might as well rename the company Bank of India at this point. At least Todd and his elves will get to keep their... — read more 

Anyone have inside information of when the next round of the hunger games begins?

Who remembers Todd saying we would make the separation process more humane and allow people to leave with dignity ? This round couldn’t be farther from that. No HR person, your manager sends you a link. Good luck getting into the link and good luck... — read more 

Achieved all my goals in 2020 and contributed to a major project that went live successfully. Yet got a BE rating. And surprisingly I have not (yet) been let go. What does that mean? Am I shortlisted for a future layoff? Is this a ploy to make... — read more

Merit/Bonus 2021 - discuss

I survived this latest round but after seeing how many loyal employees this company has once again screwed over I really don't want to be. These were all good employees. Well, now they've lost another one. I'm giving them my bare minimum from now on... — read more

Oh, well... BNYM changed the health insurance options this year to a c-ap single provider. None of my doctors are in the Anthem database. So, I guess all my medical bills will be out of network then

I was laid off today a bit after 9 am. I was in middle management and I had a very long tenure with the bank. The timming is horrible for me but I'll have to deal with it. I was expecting the cut as the scope of my responsibilities has been... — read more

Maybe it makes you feel better and helps you to sleep at night but you don’t care about the people. Layoffs next week prove that. While Todd stated at a town hall we would be more humane about the process we are going in the opposite... — read more

Is Senior Principal at BNY a Director?

It’s not about getting laid off. It’s about how BNY Mellon has chosen to go about shrinking it’s workforce. They have no respect for our intelligence. They are just a bunch of McKinsey disciples who feel that only, and I mean only profits matter. ... — read more 

I heard management considering packages for employees with 20+ years with company to mitigate potential fallout related to laying many ‘senior’ people off. Has anyone heard anything similar? More details?

For 2021, BNYM would like to reevaluate some middle management positions again, just like they have done in the past. This will involve some managers who will need to reapply for the job positions that they already have. In most cases, the results... — read more

Has anyone not received a year end review yet? For those who have received a year end review, how did it go?
