January 13 rumors
Repost: read this earlier
Word is January 13, at 11:00 am for conductors, when the system re-bid occurs, BNSF is going to take an ax to TY&E, system wide, they’ve cut significantly already all new hires that were not in closed seniority districts hired in 2024 and 2025, and the word is in corporate that they are going to slash those areas next, north town, Cicero, Chicago, Havre, Mandan, Vancouver, and Seattle, Interbay, and phase out or recall all loan outs back to original terminals. California is being spared along with parts of the South Trans Con for for vehicle shipments and for what the carrier deems as high priority Z trains, and vehicle trains to redistribute gas powered vehicles as the electric market has gone belly up and to salvage relationships BNSF is hauling more vehicle freight to areas where the ev market is going to take the biggest hits, but for how long is anyone’s guess, as immediate quarterly profit bumps are slowly taking precedence over moving freight so Belen, Needles, Winslow, and Barstow, Utah are going to eventually take a hit based on what crews are costing BNSF in Winslow alone. The Red River division is being gutted internally, and BNSF is simply reaping tax benefits of having a corporate office in Fort Worth, while moving all other business out, and leasing out terminals 1 by 1.

India 1k people laid off
Have you heard about it anything at all?
RIP FE/RDXT it was fun.
I'm the lead in this area and for the past month, we have had people visit in the hopes of getting repair work. The LTF is empty and we have no work. It was discovered that the repair work is being set up in a different area. My mother in-law got hire for this department. And she was told she was being assigned to a newly set up repair department. This week I talked to a parent of an employee in my area. And he said that the repairs are going to be done in an area near field camp. And that there is talk of dissolving FE/RDXT.
Will store H.R. be cut out soon?
I keep hearing full time store H.R. will be eliminated, is this just a rumor? Or is it true? I’m hearing this repeatedly.

Offers delayed by 1 week!
Rumor is that the offers are delayed by at least 1 week! Not a surprise, HR failed to secure the required approvals from Exxon executives for the offers, and some of them are enjoying their holidays till next week! Again, corporate separateness, my a.. !
Infinite Employees Are NOT Required to Work Overtime?
I am seeking clarification on several concerning rumors circulating internally.
It has been stated that Infinite employees are not required to work overtime. Is this accurate? If Professional Services Teams have been transitioned to Infinite, what teams are now expected to cover these additional hours?
There are also rumors that these employees who travel onsite to banks will have their corporate cards revoked, requiring them to pay thousands of dollars out of pocket and wait for reimbursement. This would create a significant financial burden regardless of how fast the reimbursement. How are these employees expected to operate under these conditions, given the realities of today’s economy?
I saw Nick Shirley standing outside of Intel
He was asking where all the chips are. Is Intel just another imigration scheme at the expense of taxpayers?

Did my recruiter lie about bonuses?
Joined BNY as a senior associate full stack developer in the collateral area in February. My recruiter told me bonuses at that level are around 10%. My VP coworker said she gets 10%.
I've seen some posts saying because I got 10 RSUs in November/December that I won't get a cash bonus. Is that true?
Wasn't there supposed to be another major RIF before year's end?
Did we get lucky and that rumor turned out to be false or was it moved to the start of next year?
