I could deal with the RTO, but having to fight for a place to sit every single time? Is it the same everywhere?

Is it full time RTO or still 2 weeks a month?

I joined Fidelity six months ago, and I'm still trying to understand what this role actually is. Everyone I've met in this position seems to be neither technical nor business-focused, so what exactly do they do?

Lot of people are moving to other locations from Boston and mmk to do Return to Office for 2 weeks. Way to go , while G4's and G5's have to go in everyday in these locations; Good going dinosaurs!

I don't want to spread rumors but an Analyst on My team told me that they are asking contractors to work from home full time now. The location/ building I am in was indeed surprisingly empty during lunch rush hour. So, what's going on here? Also, is... — read more 

The benefits were the reason people have stayed and powered through fidelity. Now with united healthcare and delta dental… this is the real attrition strategy. Both companies su-k so bad and my doctors and billing hate UHC. They have monologued me... — read more 

I honestly don’t understand the amount of delusion sr “leaders” have when they say we’re a “tech company”. We have the worst tech possible. Of course we needed college educated tech teams. Why did we have to do a 5 year experiment to understand... — read more

It’s going to be interesting when management sees they’re not going to hit the goal for attrition. The pandemic panic hires aren’t going anywhere. They know leaving fidelity means never working in a corporation again. It doesn’t make sense to punish... — read more

Anyone know if contract renewals are happening for Talent Source right now?

Been wondering how many people got into a low mileage lease based on WFH & now are like ohhhh fxck!

Did you notice that there are a lot more “work from home” jobs being posted on workday? Just today there are 3 new wfh jobs. It seems like the jobs are very specific and tailored to specific people already doing the job. Lot of VP jobs.

If Fidelity can’t afford raises for “associates” (only a dum--ss would think that’s a good name for employees), than they shouldn’t be able to increase the profit they make from us. No raises based on inflation, but we also can’t keep the lights on... — read more

Now that I’ve been here over a decade, I can see why the old timers before would get livid that Fidelity invests so much in kids right out of college. At the time, I thought the older people were jealous but now I understand fidelity gives the kids... — read more

There is absolutely no way that it's the best place to work with RTO. I don't know who is filling out the survey but it has to be bots. And the people putting this on linked in are bootlickers.
