Haven't you realized we already are?
REIMAGINE? What a crock! OMG this leadership team is eating out of DC's hand.
Who is this Sleeping Beauty? I was introduced to some many Heads of something in technology. I thing they forgot to apply spand and layers at that level.
50% of engineers to have cloud certification by the end on this year??? Are we becoming cloud hub? We’ve done everything thing else to become a perfect bank????
Every time I read these makes me glad I left this area last year.
Who is this clown? We are given only Pluralsight… at the same time India ppl are given multiple stream on ups million most of which are teacher-led classes. And that is how company itself creates division and inequality. Where are those DIE leaders???
Agile teams don't need to be physically located to produce results, those trying to force in office are using an outdated agile thought pattern to kingdom build
@udb+1fePNaSF yea I highly doubt guys on these calls will say its a great marriage between two male leaders AND I highly doubt the men on these calls will be calling each other Rob Lowe or Brad Pitt on these calls. This thinking just highlights the thinking all the way down the line in tech: at EVERY level.
Speaking of bitc-ing and moaning about everyone's favorite word (diversity)...
How many female and Black graduates relative to their Asian, Hispanic, Indian, and White counterparts are there from engineering schools?
We all know the answer, making moot the question of: 'why aren't more Blacks and women being shoehorned into jobs instead of better qualified people?'.
Haven't you noticed the dizzying number of females in all management roles throughout the bank?
More importantly than all the above though... why not choose to see life through a lens other than race all the time? That only leads to misery.
This townhall should have been titled as How many technology employees can we possibly insult in under an hour... but WAIT! THERE'S MORE!!!
Who is this Julia Roberts? I have a feeling that she has no idea what she is talking about.
Saul: "Agile teams need to be together in the office"
Sajid: "We've proven that agile teams can work remotely in India"
Maybe need to work on aligning this message?
Julia Roberts and before that mentioned two CIOs were a great marriage... obviously we must still need a man to save us ladies
We now know, with 100% certainty, where those 1600 Software Engineering hires planned for 2022 will be based.
It will not be in "Jah's own country".
Anyone else's townhall go into circle mode and then say this site can't be reached?
Oh the irony!
SVB early on the call - all agile team members need to come into the office for certain agile ceremonies to be face to face.
Sajid - as Covid proved, we can do agile very effectively remotely so we'll continue to pursue that where it makes sense.
the one woman speaker gets called julia roberts?!?! are you kidding me. FFS this sexism has got to stop.
I don't blame SVB, Those pushing D&I have pushed the workforce out of the US and into a much more diverse place (yea right) - India.
Great job finding this azz from India to steal all our jobs. Love the all the corp buzzwords... Automate ! Synergy ! yes that's awesome bro !
Just look and listen to this guy…. Sounds like it is already decided that India is a head quarter for WF. US workers will be their slaves/servants. This is so disgusting 🤮
Location agnostic=less reliance on CONUS, driving salaries further down for US staff.
It is crystal clear that SVB could give a damn about our tech cult-members stateside.
Transform to a high value location and just hire folks from Bangalore and Chennai!
I would love to know how I can slack, sole contributor or no...bc all I do is work my a-s off
Jabs don't work and masks don't either, it's all about CONTROL.
Dont worry about diversity, soon all the distinguished engineers will be males, with stashes, from India.
"Plenty of people like a sole contributor role and have no desire to move"
This is called slacking and flying low under the radar. People at Wells excel at that.

They're trying to save you from yourself. You may enjoy playing Russian roulette but someone has to clean up the mess when you lose.
I know you all like to bi--h and moan that diversity is a scam but zero of the distinguished engineers are female or black. Zero.
Equality? There isn't any...
Post ID: @oah+1fePNaSF
Plenty of people like a sole contributor role and have no desire to move into management. Why lose a good techie and gain a bad manager?
YAWN!
Vaccinated people can spread covid just like unvaccinated. This is such BS that the unvaccinated people are being treated like cr-p. Where is the equality in that?
50 years.. Let me guess.. They are in IT or ICS?
Yes... Pretty disgusting that someone has survived here since 1972 and has not elevated to any leadership role.
So vaccinated can optionally wear masks and those not vaccinated are required to wear masks per email with a few suggestions, testing requirements have also changed
Wow 50 years!!!
He just needs p-m poms
Love the round of applause! Great job on incorporating that feature, team!
Proud to have on our team? But I thought the old timers were cult members...
