AP News: $400-$500 million in exit costs; into 2024

"With these cuts, Charles Schwab expects to achieve at least $500 million of incremental annual run-rate cost savings — but also incur about $400 million to $500 million from expenses like employee compensation, benefits and facility exit costs.

... "We have said, we intend to take a series of actions this year and into 2024 aimed at removing cost and complexity from the firm, including reducing our expense base and streamlining our operating model,” a Charles Schwab spokesperson said in a statement sent to The Associated Press. “This will result in eliminating some positions in the coming months, mostly in non-client facing areas.”"

Just get rid of Dennis and Renee. Big savings, loss of severely outdated, tone deaf, and cumbersome command and control style of management, and would actually allow for innovative solutions to actually MAKE Schwab some money. Seems like a win across the board. 🤣😂

Yes eliminate the erg roles. About time they realized 90% of the company doesn’t do work or generate revenue. They spent millions of dollars and labor hours on the “transition group” that didn’t do anything. Smart business model acquiring TD and talk about being a family. Then laying off all of the employees after the hard work everyone put in for the merger. Then after tax season they will cut bonuses.
