#fired

Why don't they eliminate all of the satellite offices and remote employees first? There are some directors, senior directors and VPs that hide at home all the time, some that wear the same clothes days on end that are never in the office. They hide with background pictures of their office, and while their leadership knows it, leadership isn't strong enough to do anything about it. So just fire them. If you are not in one of the 3 campuses, then you should not have a job.

The retention bonus should be paid back if the termination was voluntary by the employee. But I was fired. So, do I need to repay it?

Anyone has retention bonus agreement from 2024?

Fired? No consequence if they go for some days?

We had a guy all of a sudden “leave” our group. We all think he was either fired or laid off but our boss says he will be out “X amount of weeks.” No one believe him. I have been with the bank over 20 years and never heard of someone removed from the system and then put back in when they come back—?! Comments?

I hate this company with every fiber of my being. They fired me after giving them 15 years and struggling with mental health issues.

I hope this company gets what it deserves. Su-k it, EJ.

I'm in retail, and my boss barely spoke a word to me this week. My guess is he already knows what's coming and knows my name is on the list. Let me tell you, it's not a fun feeling being 99% convinced you're being let go but still having that 1% of hope that you might be wrong.

I’m doing a ok job. My boss thinks I’m not doing enough but I try my best. I make mistakes sometimes but nothing serious. I think my boss is trying to get me fired. Can I get fired for this?

Pretty much completed ALL training in my area that AT&T offered, great reviews every year exceeded expectations, many special purpose assignments completed successfully, Just all got me laid off..... F U Stankey and AT&T

I just got laid off now. It’s fcking start of the year.

Some parts of the government have been hit harder by mass firings and buyouts than others. The Partnership for Public Service found that just three agencies account for more than half of the total staff reductions in 2025: the Defense Department, which has lost more than 60,000 employees; the Treasury Department, which has lost more than 30,000; and the Department of Agriculture, which has lost more than 20,000.

Is anybody else seeing an uptick in firings or is this an isolated incident? I’m spiraling a bit and starting to worry they’ve decided to save on severance by outright kicking people out without anything, so it’d be nice to know that’s not what’s happening here.

My heart bleeds for them.

If you have been RIFs or fired, you can file a complaint with the EEOC. Based on what I have seen and experienced at this company regarding targeting age, race and s-x with RIFs, you may have a good case. https://www.eeoc.gov/filing-charge-discrimination

Title says it all. Will be announced today

Is for MW to be fired!

Jeremy said the next wave is us sitting next in the same office as supervisor otherwise we are fired even if we are in a designated different hub. Heard anything different?

What if we are designated Dallas but supervisor in ATL? Are we sc--wed?

My friend was just asked to go in BH she said low performer

Each state should have this dept to file disputes against this place for discrimination. Everyone being fired for random things needs to file and you only have a certain period of time to do so. This place has become so toxic and to dig up reasons to mark people low on performance, change ratings after direct mgrs enter them or even force wfh then use it against you needs to end. Make noise people including contact media, lawyers and anyone else you can

Wrn Leggs is gone at the end of the month

For the last 6 months, I've seen so many people getting fired and all very senior management too. Like just boss is not fired. 3 people above them got fired. And the whole team is now getting renamed and all that. The new people even don't know the product and capabilities.
Some people were really great leaders and they were like in BNY for 18 years and so.
I don't think they're firing people in lower level but feeling nervous.

I was included in the layoffs and a team member just informed me that our boss instructed the team to have very minimal if any communication with me at all through the 19th and after as well. Anyone else seeing this? Not sure what the reasoning would be behind it we normally just have friendly conversations. 😔

Been on std for 2 months got called on my personal phone and laid off. How is this possible?

I am in Reuters Technology and got affected 3 days ago. What a way to get canned right before Christmas!

Anyone else recently laid off get that email today?
I already logged in to Fidelity and accepted the RSU's before they change their mind.

She's been 15+ years, disciplinary letter = fired. Badge reports gets run every month

What the f Wellsfargo? I have been working here since 2007! Is it how you treat your employees now? FU!

I know it wasn’t about my performance, but it still stings. Whether you want it to or not, it makes you feel invalidated. And by all accounts, finding another job isn’t going to be easy. It just su-ks.

I’m ready for it to be over. Knocking out new code this morning. Expected to finish projects, migration, and do hand off. Just friggin fire me at this point. 3 more weeks…

Yeah I know man up. I got ya.

No email about Thanksgiving this year. Guess he accidentally fired his email composer along the way?

In October the U.S. saw more layoffs in one month than any month in the last 20 years. Now another 13k, there are no companies hiring we are out of a job and right before the holidays and a massive Great Depression hits. This is so much worse than many think, there won’t be enough jobs out there for all of us. I just lost my insurance, I am fu---d
This is heartless and I was laid off on a fu--ing mistake. I was not bottom 5%, I was a top performer I did not deserve this at fu--ing all. This is bullsh-t. The CEO gets 20 million fu--ing dollars and lays us off before the holidays. Fu-k this company.

But I’d been trying to find something else for months, and nothing ever came through. Now I’m laid off, and the panic is setting in. Wishing everyone who lost their job yesterday the best of luck, I think we’re all going to need it.

Nasrin apparently thought it would be fun to fire a bunch of us on a group call. Classy

This company has become disgusting — the blatantly corrupt rating systems and hiring/firing practices are not only unethical, they’re borderline illegal. It’s only a matter of time before lawsuits force accountability. The so‑called leadership team has destroyed what was once a company I loved, and they made my final years here miserable.

I survived over a year of my toxic, cowardly boss trying to push me out. I battled him every step of the way and never backed down. Eventually, he dropped the hammer — but I’m proud I stood my ground. Now I can’t wait to join a better firm and work hard to bring business away from this pathetic leadership team.

I truly hope none of you experience the same fate. I never thought it could happen to me, after putting in so much blood, sweat, and tears and being respected by so many colleagues. But the reality is clear: if an insecure, jealous, and cowardly manager wants you gone, they will find a way.

For me, it’s time to move forward — stronger, wiser, and determined to make sure this toxic culture doesn’t win.

My boss has been bullying me. Gave me tasks that can’t be done. They fired me with cause today. No severance.
