Many teammates received an email announcing we would be pension eligible starting Jan 1, 2025. This probably means pension will not be eliminated if they are expanding this benefit to new teammates.

I was pleasantly surprised to get a very nice bonus in my account yesterday. I asked my manager and he said it was a holiday bonus as a token of thanks for our hard work this year. Awesome!

There is a lot of pressure to meet unrealistic goals. We all work very hard to at least come close, and many of us spend too much time in the office. And yet we are regularly treated as if we are expendable, and there are no symbolic nor tangible... — read more 

Promoting good employees is obviously cheaper and more effective than constantly replacing them with new hires - a five-year-old could figure that out. On top of that, promoting su-k-ups who can’t do their jobs is a total waste of resources. Yet... — read more 

Come on Grant. Are we going to go into the new year with the same people who have inspired the mass exodus of teammates, at the heart of the discord amongst leadership and simply destroyed since they came on board? The holiday gift we are all... — read more

Sick days do not carry over to 2025. Use all your sick days by 12/31. Remember the executives “care” nothing for the teammates and are only looking out for themselves. Ensure you look out for yourself by using all your sick days.

They are out. We are being told to not share with our managers because our leadership is not happy and wants to talk through in a higher Q&A. They told us not to relay the information because it may greatly affect the retention of our areas and they... — read more

Hearing rumblings that the pension plan will be eliminated mid-January, likely announced at earnings time to attempt to bury the news. This was originallly scheduled for August but had to be delayed. Be prepared.

This is what you get when you lay off all the seasoned employees and replace them with people with zero experience and about the same amount of knowledge.

Has anyone here ever had a positive experience with a recruiter? I feel like they are all rude and very unprofessional when it comes to coordinating interviews. Do you have someone you actually like to work with?

Anyone else thought about the insane deception from Bill, Beau, (and potentially Mark Chancy is the bank sells to Wells), with this take over? To name the bank Truist is such a fake and disgusting thing to do? Who were they trying to convince this... — read more 

Mixing favoritism with hostility creates a toxic work environment, and Truist has mastered it. Unfairness reigns, morale is shattered, and a healthy atmosphere is beyond reach at this point.

Truist is cancer. Unless Truist completely liquidates everything and goes to cash, the cancer will spread to the next organization. Garbage buy for any bank.

Anyone else hearing that Truist will be sold in 2025? Have heard from several credible sources that Bill and the board are looking to sell next year.
