Thread regarding Charles Schwab Corp. layoffs

Just let go

Remote exception request was denied last Friday (even though I was full time WFH for past five years). Then today I was let go

STS award winner

Exceeded expectations four of last five year

Two promotions in five years

Devastated right now. I have everything to this firm. Feeling betrayed and lied to.

STS folks you have my sympathies. Already overworked and overwhelmed, it looks like you all will be asked to do even more to make up for the layoff numbers.

Good speed to you all and I wish you nothing but the best

@1jpe+1nHm5KiJ CTS is the client phone facing technical support team. STS is basically internal IT from what I understand. Network/Server/System admin type roles.

If STS starts today, then I can only assume that digital will begin soon, if not tomorrow.

@jds+1nHm5KiJ - No. They ststed they were denied WFH and THEN today they were laid off. Two separate events.

I think the OP was just denied WFH, not laid off.

I am so sorry. It makes no sense to get rid of high performers.
