I think it's time to exit - bonus eligibility?

I have decided to part ways shortly after the new year. I will lose a lot of money with RTO. And given the hiring freeze and possibility of more layoffs coming, I think it's best. In order to receive my bonus, do I need to be an employee up to when... — read more 

I wish I was laid off

I've been doing two jobs for the pay of one since the last round of layoffs. Getting severance and leaving this place behind would have been a much better deal.

Love Letter From a Faithful Automaton

My Dearest Firm, I have got to be honest in that nothing you say at this point can impact me in any way. This has gone on far too long. And to such extremes. I am numb to the tactic. Nothing you say or do can scare me or make me happy. You cannot... — read more

Sunday Scaries

Not for me - I’m turning in my two weeks notice tomorrow. Didn’t hit the golden ticket lottery, but still bailing off this dumpster fire. I’m going to miss quite a few people in my program, but RTO can KMA. Bye Chuck!!

Schwag

Do we give to give our company schwag back if we got laid off or can we keep it?

You still upset? For those still here.

It has been three weeks since the layoff. I am still here and thankful to have a job. Not thankful to Walt or Rick or even Boston Consulting Group. Thankful to God, the universe, myself, the Flying Spaghetti Monster or whatever else you might be... — read more 

Are people genuinely sad about layoffs?

I mean the severance package alone means you get paid through the holidays. It's practically a free vacation to spend time with family, no? After that, job hunting probably su-ks but I think most people would be able to find a new job within a... — read more

STS STILL has 3 layers of MDs…

Not sure what that 3rd layer of MDs really do. Still surprised that two layers is’t enough. STS still feels bloated in administrative areas, not really focused on a business app

Schwab is a JOKE of epic proportions!

What is wrong with your company anyways? Why do you treat people so poorly? Is it just me, or is there something seriously OFF with the culture there? I would not invest $1,000 with Schwab, let alone consider working there.

Laid Off? Don't despair!

If you were laid off, I highly recommend using the LHH resource provided to you ASAP. It's an incredible service which will keep you motivated and hopeful. I have actually started getting call backs for interviews! I was fairly disappointed in being... — read more

CD1….

Holy sh-t. Could Schwab hire a less trained group of people? Why did we go through all these layoffs losing talented reps while these mo--ns are still on the phone!!!! They’re making my job so much harder than it needs to be

How many are looking to leave?

I've noticed that layoffs and the way the whole issue was handled have soured most employees on the company. At least this is my experience with the people I work with. Is this true throughout Schwab? How many people are now so disillusioned that... — read more

Better jobs are out there

Don't stay at Schwab if you're unhappy. I've been looking for a little over a month and I already got two offers. I'm still debating what to do, but I know I'm not staying here much longer. Just having the option to leave has had a positive impact on... — read more

What if We Take a Schwab Role After 1/5?

Do we still get severance if we get a new role at Schwab after 1/5? It is weird that they almost punish you on severance of you go back to the Schwab.

Good luck to anyone who still believes in Charles Schwab. You will be replaced when AI and foreign workers are up to speed.

Orlando Desk Sharing

It’s confirmed there are a few hundred more employees than there are available seats in Orlando, rumor has it they will be implementing desk sharing (gross). Has anyone else heard this rumor? Anyone in leadership here who can confirm?

How about a litigation?

I could probably make peace with the layoffs and move on. However, a part of me is infuriated for the fact that those favored by domain MDs and senior leaders have retained positions (some deserving and many not deserving). These so called false... — read more

I Resigned

I resigned without notice and so happy I did! It’s all going down hill from here. I didn’t want to be part of the titanic.

Job Market is Tough

I’ve been job hunting for 6 months now. Started as soon as the layoff announcement came out. It’s been insane. I’ve sent out hundreds of applications and gotten literally 4 interviews and then never heard back or was told the roles were cut (for... — read more

RTO

One thing I never heard from leadership was how many hours a day was required for those 3-4 days a week. So go in a couple of hours and work the rest from home. Start your day at home, eat lunch, then go in a few hours and come home before rush hour... — read more 

Garfunkel up to old tricks in his town hall
