Just when you thought the revolving door couldn’t spin any faster, here comes the 5-day RTO mandate starting 1/1/2026. Truist-wide hammer drop, no carve-outs. Grant spilled it to a handful Audit earlier today, claiming a bunch of folks will be... — read more
Moving to 5 days in office
HR buried a story that starting in January 2026 teammates are expected to be in the office five days a week. Not surprising that HR buried that article and gave no warning to people managers.
Truist Golf Championship
Curious about the ROI on this “investment”.
Learn to say no
If you’re burned out, start saying no and stop feeling guilty about it. Managers here depend on us to keep their jobs alive, not the other way around. Half of them won’t even call you out because they’re terrified of confrontation. Keep saying no... — read more
Board MIA
Missing in Action board investors Paging the above…this is comical at this point. Bill’s legacy is already cemented in serial failures. This shows that a CEO should not also be Chairman. No checks and balances. Earnings call should be... — read more
Brace yourselves

5 days RTO
To be announced to certain groups on Friday.
Who is the worst CEO in history?
Billy bob or Kelly?
Imagine that
More new executive hires. SunTruist changes leadership in various areas like dirty socks. We are now spending millions to try and get back the wholesale payments and business they three years ago didn’t give a damn about. This circus needs a bigger... — read more
This is different
I’ve been in banking for over a decade and I’ve never seen this many coworkers openly talking about job hunting. Even people I barely know are updating resumes and quietly networking. I swear, the only reason there's not a major exodus is the state... — read more
Monitoring software on laptops
What tools is Truist using to keep an eye on what employees are doing on Truist laptops? Some departments have Sapience, but I've heard there are other tools being utilized. Anyone know what else is being used and which departments are using them?
Truist is in financial trouble!
Stock price tanking. 700+ contractors let go with pretextual reason of "Sapience monitoring showed they were not being productive". There is no plan to back-fill the positions. Real reason they were let go was to simply cut costs! More cost... — read more
Timely advice - If you are let go from Truist
Here’s something most people don’t realize: banks settle 98–99% of wrongful termination lawsuits before they ever reach trial. That’s right, only 1–2% make it to court. Why? Because they know what’s at stake, it's cheaper for them to settle than... — read more
Internal Restructuring

Are any of the job postings out there even real??
Sure doesn’t seem like it.
Confused
Why is the board so complacent. This leadership team seems to keep fumbling the ball…over and over and over. Purple this and purple that will not impress investors.
Wooten Building Shutting Down?
Rumors are swirling they are shutting down the building on Wooten in Wilson, NC and moving them elsewhere. Is this true? No one is hardly in the building anymore. Either laid off or WFH.
Champion Mindset…
…is a game changer. As with everything, it takes a while to mature. We need to exercise some patience and it will have a purposeful butterfly effect.
Still pushing the Survey
Still getting emails from corporate and my manager about completing the survey. Is it Mandatory? What will be the consequences if I don’t fill it out?
benefits changes
I'm really frustrated to learn that Truist will be cutting its $500 deductible and co-pay medical insurance plans in 2026. From now on, they'll only offer high deductible plans with no co-pay option. It feels like they keep stripping away employee... — read more
Audit
Will audit ever slow down the revolving door of people leaving? Every time you turn around you are explaining a finding to a new auditor that is so clueless you wonder how TAS operates and gets anything done.
Hard work paying off!
Big news! I’ve got a meeting with my manager at 8 a.m. Monday, and I can’t wait! I have a feeling she’s going to tell me my AVP promotion has been approved! All my hard work is finally paying off.
Truist wealth
How does this help us? Good people let go! Can’t get an account open in a week so let’s move the problem over here. I don’t think that will help. It’s all a mess. I think this makes it worse. Upper management doing something to justify their... — read more
Leadership at Truist is a mess
This place feels like it’s stuck in the past. Half the leadership team seems completely unqualified, and most only got their roles through connections or because they cost less. And the result are layoffs, because that's the only thing incompetent... — read more
Have layoffs continued today?
I’m also hearing that it’s not just Mortgage being impacted. Please share any info.
Vpn down
Is Truist being hacked? Any idea why vpn is down across the company? I know we’ve had a lot of turnover in our tech areas. Did we layoff the wrong people?
Buzz saw moving through mortgage today and tomorrow
Good luck everybody. I was thinking would hit if at all next month, but it’s here.
Reporting AI use
Is it against the code of conduct for an employee to input Truist proprietary information into an AI platform like ChatGPT? To my knowledge, the only AI tool currently authorized at Truist is CoPilot, and it’s being tested by a limited group of... — read more

Risk moving to crypto industry?
Had a recruiter ping me recently for a job with a "leading crypto" firm for grc work. Would be an 80k pay bump plus equity and full wfh. Too good to be true perhaps, but I'm doing my research. What would you all do? I survived a few lay offs here... — read more
Teammate Growth Month
Not sure what grows around here.....Senior level roles seem to always be filled with outside hires, promotional opportunities are slim to none. Pay certainly does not grow to keep teammates even with inflation. Benefits shrink like a cheap t-shirt... — read more
Accuracy 😂
Here so long as teammates complete their jobs consistently, repeatedly, and transparently, accuracy doesn’t matter So as long as everyone repeatedly gets it wrong, it’s okay. That’s why there have been a million teammate replacements, a million... — read more
New AML Officer
With Rick leaving, any insight into how his replacement might make changes? The Financial Crimes group is such a disaster. I bet some of the execs will be out the door shortly.
How does this even happen?
We lost a great manager. They decided to nuke our department for no good reason and then handed the pieces to someone who loves micromanaging and playing politics. I went from enjoying my job to dreading it within a few weeks. Again, for no good... — read more

More Big News
It appears some big news may or may not be announced this week. I’ve heard it may or may not affect teammates. That said, the source isn’t especially reliable, so it’s difficult to know for sure so it may or may not happen.
