Please tell me while we were sitting in this smelly, stuffy office, they were not out hauling purple flags to the top of a mountain. Why go all the way to California where there are no Truist banks? They really could have done all that at Stone Mountain in Atlanta, or King's Mountain in Charlotte!
This company is a joke.
@m5 if they told you Forrest hills was closed till end of month your manager must like yall, ours made us come in even before they were treated
@m2 yep true!! I’m still here at work per normal
@m2 Lol...that's actually a darn good idea.
Ridiculously tone deaf d-mbasses. Probably called it a business meeting about selling Lightstream.
@m2 closed until the end of the month
@az OMG is this true or BS? Cause if a f**king flea jumped on me at work I would call OSHA in a hot second and then HR to request WFH until the infestation was resolved. SMH!
@ee OMG. Lol
Imagine asking to take days off to hike up a mountain to partake in this 9/11 event and you get denied all while these losers get to lol

Obviously execs have signed off and encouraged all this nonsense.
Isn't that considered embezzlement? Stealing company money to fund personal vacations and saying it's to honor 9/11 is sickening, morbid, appalling. Should be grounds for immediate termination.
The basic tone deafness of this stunt should end these people careers.
Exploring the tragedies of 9/11 to turn their vacation into Truist PR is sick. Why weren't they climbing stairs at Truist Park where there was an actual 9/11 tribute climb taking place?
I have to believe this collection of a--holes paid for this on their own dime. If they somehow convinced themselves and other leaders that it’s a good use of company funds following 5+ years of layoffs, then just burn the whole place down.
I understand having getaways for top producers - incentives work! And also treating clients and prospects to entertainment and other events. But a made up leadership retreat with a fake torch is impossible to have an ROI. No words
If this is real, the board should intervene if Lyons doesn’t himself take action.
This is as bad as other leaders claiming vast numbers of Masters and World Series tickets for their friends and family (and not clients).
If your stock chart looks like GS, go for it. If it looks like ours, and you pull this cr-p, you should be out the door forthwith.
Yup! True story. These so called failure senior leaders spend thousands of dollars every year, stealing money from the bank going on these so called hikes and torch runs. Lol. Then, they spend more money on posting pics post trip on The Source only to pi-s off the hard working teammates who are in the ditches trying to stay alive with NO help or support from leaders! Way to go Old loser BR for enabling and allowing it! Shame on YOU dude! Come on Mike!!!
@az and it was very hush hush. No email sent to all teammates, only sent to managers
All while the wilson office has fleas
Hm. So what happened to saving money? We know for s fact these hos are not paying for this trip out of their own pocket.
It’s the first I’m hearing of this. They have too much time on their hands.
Who were they?
I just saw the pics on Linkedin. Crazy work.
