With the sale of RAC and LightStream, the next logical target is Sheffield. Anyone hearing anything?
Unfortunately Mike not instilling confidence
A lot of stuttering and uh mm uh umm on the conference call. Didn't hear a clear plan. Will give him another quarter as understand he is knew.
Interesting day
Good move to elevate BC to head of wealth even if inform not sure the decisions of having JD be co! Guess they forgot he learned from JT and BD before him. Other moves interesting but ML is serious about change and moving towards something new. ... — read more

Inconsistent RTO Expectations Across the Team
Does anyone else deal with inconsistent RTO expectations within their team? For example, some employees are expected to be in the office from 9 to 5 every day, while others regularly use 2–3 hours of sick leave each week to avoid meeting the full... — read more
Exhibit A to Z what’s wrong with SunTruist
We have an individual whose job title is Chief Culture and Philanthropy Officer. Oh and get this, she came from BOA where she was head of DEI and other inclusion led initiatives. You cannot make this up.
No matter what your manager tells you, remember you're not lazy or a failure
You're exhausted from years of surviving. There's a difference. Get out if you can.
Moortgage leadership
Bad leaders can generally fool those above them. They may even fool their equals. They don't deceive the employees that work under them.
TIS loses largest advisor
Truist Investment Services lost its’ largest producer last week. Not surprised. People were already on the fence about leaving, but when they were forced to raise their fees across the board, the door swung out. This is only the beginning.
Posted Positions with no explanation
Has anyone received a clear explanation for why certain branches have active job postings despite the staffing model showing we are fully staffed or overstaffed? Our branch currently has two open requisitions (UB and Sr RB). When asking Area... — read more
Lets discuss who will take over Truist
I haven't seen any change since the new CEO came on board... This place is a sinking ship and now I don't hold any hope now. In my view a takeover is inevitable. What is your thoughtful guess of whick bank will take over Truist? Actually I think... — read more

Good, bad, indifferent? I want your take on Lightstream.

Survey percentage
63%. Validates the state of how we all feel about our opinions not mattering.
Chasing Value (V=Q/P)
Kelly King is posting this on LinkedIn. I don't want to hear anything he has to say after what he did to BB&T.
Can an LLM attain consciousness?
Seems some of our tech leaders think "yes, soon." Thus will Truist fade.
Why don't we contact Mike directly (and anonymously)
I heard that Mike actully reads emails or letters sent to him, even from anonymous source. We shall just email him or write letters to him directly. I am still optimistic that real changes are coming.
Truist is not and will never be democracy.
Truist is not a democracy! If your not in a position of effect change or a major voting shareholder, you are wasting you time writing/complaining to Santa Clause on this website. Only you are in charge of your career. If you are unhappy or your... — read more
Truist now the worst large bank in the US?
When someone asked which bank is horrible? The reply was almost always Wells Fargo. Now it appears Truist has unseated them as the worst bank. 99% of people seem to say Truist when asked that question. Does this ring true in your area?
Personal Objects and Holiday Decorations Banned from the Branches
Anyone else extremely ticked off by the new CEO banning personal decorations for the holidays from the branches. Seriously what kind of heartless grinch bans Christmas decorations. I can't see how this will generate business or new relationships. Of... — read more
Freddy, please don’t forget about the mortgage fulfillment teammates. Please send help!

Layoffs October 2026?
Looks like a lot of senior/executive leaders are coming for visits and/or scheduling meetings with several teams next week. Would fit the pattern the last few years of delivering awful news shortly after the engagement survey is closed.
Is it Truist-GCC or is it T-GCC ?
I was genuinely happy to see that we are finally building a GCC for a bank—something we have all been looking forward to. However, as we have moved into execution, it increasingly feels like a single-person agenda. It no longer feels like a Truist... — read more
Not feeling valued
Been here a long time and honestly getting pretty fed up. I know I’m one of the stronger people on my team. I’ve consistently done the work, taken on more responsibility, and when I’ve asked what I need to do to get promoted, I actually did those... — read more
CEO
He is no good. He likes smoke and mirrors. He will try to sell bits and pieces to make his numbers and look good. He has no idea what he is doing. PNC - Fiserv both are so happy he is gone.

Mike, please remove the incompetant CTO and CRO
CTO made the IT department so burocratic and it can not solve any real problem nowadays. CRO has no knowlegde of risk, background in operations/delivery, dumped all his Truist shares last year. These two clueless have to be let go.
Mike, please don’t forget about the mortgage fulfillment teammates. Please send help!
We are drowning in horrible management. Please revamp mortgage fulfillment back to the way it was before these vertical lines took place.
When does Lyons start replacing OC members
New year, next month, never? I think they start dropping soon.

Build an agent!!!
Who here believes that they want us to build AI agents so that we can focus on “higher thinking” work and not so that they can cut jobs?
Ability to move internally, how to do it like an executive
Recently several exec's have explained the importance of being well rounded in many aspects of the company. To do so they mentioned how they would make as many lateral moves in order to learn holistically. Do these same leaders support us if we... — read more
