@11h can you elaborate on this?
terrible messaging as always! are contractors back 5 days? are all employees required back 5 days?
maybe they want to be JPMC :) another major player is entering the charlotte job market in 2026. Hold tight, change is coming.
They don't have the space to support this.
@10f if you’re referring to me, I’m not incentivized to live 37 miles away from work. I was hired back when we were only doing 1 day in the office. Now all of sudden it’s going to be 5. How is that fair?
@ft Why should anyone be incentivized for choosing to live 37 miles from where they work? That’s not fair to those of us who choose to live near an office.
@zp joke is on you - no lies here
Unreal lies being told here. Where is the 5 day RTO email good ba--s? In all your wisdom, where is it? Is it Friday Oct 17th yet!
Sad!
@x3 Punsih everyone because some can't be trusted. Sounds right.
@jt while your last statement is true, let's be honest...there are teammates that have proven they can't be trusted.
The beatings will continue until morale improves
Whatever.
It isn't going to followed and there are whole departments that don't come in except maybe once a month and others are allowed to WFH 3-4 days of the week. Managers aren't following "the rules" either. And HR seems to pick and choose when to enforce it. Like with everything else, there is no consistency with this company.
There are no more monthly parking availabilities at the tower in Charlotte. It’s blood from a stone at this point.
@js it’s a lie
@j4 studies show mandates often decrease job satisfaction and may increase turnover, with no significant boost to financial performance
strict return-to-office policies can be seen as a lack of trust
Formal communication will be sent out to all employees on Monday afternoon
Can confirm 5 day RTO to be announced. Bill's email this morning re Q3 earnings - "You will hear more about elevating our performance from your leaders......."
Really curious how this will be delivered. I don't see how one could ever paint this as a positive. Intentional flexibility hasn't aged well
They could save more money by adjusting the remote teammates salaries to the community band or withholding bonus from the noncomplying people.
How is making those who are complying with RTO come in one extra day going to lead to attrition? I’m not going to quit over one more day, but my teammates on remote status might if they are flipped to in office since they are less than 40 miles away.
If the idea is attrition this must also come with actual enforcement and impact to bonuses and ratings?
I’d rather this than layoffs honestly and I like the feeling of job security I have from being in office compared to my remote teammates. No shade to them they are fantastic but being in office should come with some positives
To my manager - I want you to know I enjoy having you as a manager and like you as a person. All the cr-p I spew on here is hot air. If and when my time comes to leave Truist, I will sail off into the sunset peacefully.
@fz Imagine being in Charlotte while all of your teammates and managers are in Atlanta, still forced to sit alone at the office and meet with them via Teams. It is beyond absurd.
manager discretion
Some of us live in cities/states where no one on our team works. Are we required to go sit in an office with no one we work with just to sit on Teams meetings all day?
Can we now, finally, remove CARE from our PMV?
What is the distance where we would be allowed to be remote? I’m 37 miles from the office. Does anyone know and can tell me?
what's the distance requirement from home to office that mandates RTO?
@f0 doubtful on a mutiny, what are you going to do, stop working and get fired? This is a dictatorship, if you don’t like it, then you have to leave, and go anywhere else and realize this place is toxic and you should have left a long time ago.
Bill et al., thank you sir(s) - may I have another?
If this is true, then everyone should be back in the office. There are too many working from home that can be in the office. Otherwise Truist may have a mutiny on their hands.
@b2 the expectation is to make the plebs quit. Duh!
Worst kept secret. Most people have known for weeks. Stupid company!
Truist wouldn’t be able to keep things running without its remote teammates. Most of the offshore folks are working remotely anyway! These resources keep the IT platforms operational!
I figured that fake "cyber threat" that shut down the VPN last month was a test??
This is just a way to get 20% of teammates (the ones that are NOT allowed to coffee swipe or come and go as they please) to quit. No
severence. No fear of wrongful
termination suits. Win win for SunTruist!
Happy Job Hunting!!!!
Can confirm.
Seems like this is instead of layoffs, to make 2026 look better
@b5 All employees effective January - not sure timeline for everyone finding out
They should just announce it on the earnings call
Sic mundus creatus est
Good reference. Bank caught in a timeline loop of death and decay and can’t escape it. Dark reference.
Almost all are going back. Forced attrition that is cheaper than layoffs with severance packages.
Sig mundis creatus est.
This places goes in an infinite loop.
I hate seeing this. Sometimes on this board you see these posts and feel pretty confident they are BS, but this one feels legit. I hope to be proven wrong.
Are we assuming the Q3 earnings call gonna be bad then? They need to cash in the last chip they have in keeping teammates happy to try and get the headcount down?
Really curious around how they frame this? Assuming they will see it worked so well and the feedback they got was so positive that it seems crazy to not do it?
tell us the groups
