Any update ?!?
Any word on this?
BNY has not been a competitor with PNC since the old Mellon days, before Mellon sold off it's Datacenter backoffice business to FISERV, and it's retail bank business to Citizens.
They aren't even in the same industry any more. Corporate BNY could care less about PNC. Your comparisons would be more accurate if compared to State Street, Chase, Wells Fargo, and actual real industry competitors.
PNC I heard is going back 5 days a week starting January 1st… not sure how true that is, but since BNY can’t think of ideas on their own, they’ll most likely follow PNC.
For all of those that think this is untrue…..remember a year ago when 4 days in office was rumored here? And how people said that was untrue? Well how many days are we in office now? BNY Layoffs is the #1 source for employees to learn about changes.
Pre-covid most of our department worked from home on Fridays.
Maybe for managers. They always get frigged first.
They already reduced and limited WFA this year. Expect it to be gone for 2027.
They will tell you, you don’t need a chair and a desk you can use one of their couch things and your lap. First come first serve. It’ll be like trying to get tickets to Taylor Swift but for your desk. Everyone else can work standing in the bathroom.
Pre Covid I was 3 days in office 2 at home.
Simply put. Back to pre-covid days.
You report to the office or put on a list.
@f1 what does that mean?
Then one off Vacation, one off Caregiver, one off Sick/Safe. Two can play the game.
It was confirmed to me: 3/1/2026---5 days in office. Only "one day" exceptions like illness and so forth allowed.
For the person that mentioned we only have seats for 75% of the population….are you aware of the 15% partially met and 10% did not meet requirements for year end ratings?
God speed to all!
Not true. They are actually changing it to 6 days in the office.
@dp
Confirmed to me by my manager who was told from his mgr.
No more working remotely.
@dm confirmed by who? When?
Confirmed, effective March 1st.
This would knock out 50% of the company if enacted today!
We only have 75% seats in NYC so definitely not enough space.
The a--hats running that dump don’t care at all about how much space there is… And you should never believe what they say
As somebody else said three or four years ago, they said in a town hall “if we had to come in more than three days a week, we will consider a failure on management’s part”… Well, you’re all coming in four days… And if there’s enough seats for four days, there’s enough for five & if there’s not, double up in cubes & 2 per chair!
This is definitely in the horizon!
@a9
3 years ago, Robin and his muck shovelers also said ‘we can’t see any reason to expand past RTO 3 times a week’
And now look at us.
5x will be coming after more layoffs & sublets.
Trust BNY at your own peril.
No they said earlier this year they are going to stay at 4x a week for the foreseeable future (also said they are keeping the recharge period which they kept).
This would’ve also been communicated to staff earlier imo.
Wouldn’t surprise one bit with this company - there is no life balance left!
I think could be introduced for some higher grades, but lack of space an issues in some buildings.
