Surely someone on here is a HiPo or has had one as a direct report… so what’s it like having an actual, assigned sponsor? Do they give mentorship advice or just steer your career or what? Is your sponsor lining you up to take their job someday or is it just some one random from upper management?

Does the company pad much more to outside hires?
I recently noticed a role similar to mine posted on a job board. My current pay is at the lower end of the posted range, even though I've been in this position for years and have significant experience. Is this common at TIAA? I understand this happens everywhere, but between the high inflation over the last five years and receiving almost no raises for staying here, I can't help but feel bitter.

OCI layoffs and flattening or hiring and promotions
On LinkedIn, I see many OCI job opening posts. And I see many familiar managers getting promoted to higher roles. That doesn't look like the organization's shrinkage and flattening. From outside it looks like a steady OCI growth. Which sounds opposite to the pessimism and claims of M2-M3 roles being converted to IC ones voiced on this board.
