What I hate most about Bill Rogers retiring is he spent years running the company into the ground and due to HIS incompetence, caused mass layoffs of competent teammates, creating a cut-throat environment of incompetent leaders, forcing everyone to return to office, while he rides off into the sunset with his millions in pension and retirement. I hope everyone who suffered under his leadership experience recompense, and everyone who prospered under his leadership begin to reap the very he-l that they sowed.

@hr post of the day. Great visuals and spot on!
“He learned from the best. Ole useless Kelly King. I’m sure the 2 d-mb d-mbs can build matching homes in the mountains of western Carolina”.
You could make a hilarious sitcom of those two living near each other in the mountains. Kelly King’s massive purple mobile home perched on mud tires. Kelly out front preaching selflessness, standing on a stage (paid for by the HOA) emblazoned with rhinestones that spell out Kelly King.
Next door is an embarrassed Bill. His house is a copy of Jamie Dimon’s house down to the last brick. He spends his days memorizing the JP Morgan annual reports, perfecting his Jamie Dimon mannerisms; all while trying to dodge Joe Thompson’s relentless calls begging for a job.
@dy BD always sits by collecting their directors checks and do nothing.
Incompetence indeed did win. BillyBob pulled off a feat that was impossible. Taking a bank that was the premier southeast states bank and after 6 years having a lower stock price than at the time of merger is hall of shame worthy. The fact the BOD sat on their a-s and allowed it is also incompetence personified. If nothing else Lyons should rid the board of anyone who has been there for more than two years.
This was the Kelly and Bill show all along. The fact that they had to go outside the organization just seven years after BB&T acquired Suntrust tells you everything you need to know. What happened to succession planning? Why wasn't anyone ready to step into the job? Why did they have to get a guy who has presided over a 70%+ plunge in the shares of his current company? It seems obvious that nobody else wanted the job. Truist is turning out to be exhibit A of the argument that regional banks are a bad investment and an inferior alternative to the big banks. (Which have their own flaws to be sure... and don't even get me started on community banks.)
Yeah, I really hate people like that! LOL!

Should have happened three years ago. Between Billy Bob and the rest of the misfits they ruined two good banks.
Just another episode of "American Greed - Truist edition". Sleazy CEO runs company into the ground. Sends a farewell email and rides off into the sunset collecting their millions upon millions. Bill is laughing his a$$ off at all of us. We are the su-kers!
Unfortunately, the culture of kissing leaders' a$$es overrides the culture of high performance every time. We pick our battles everyday.
