I went from being a confident, successful professional to having to seek therapy and medication after working at US Bank. Worst experience of my life. The company is chock full of good people who have turned mean for survival. Thank god I’m no longer... — read more
It’s not 1997 anymore
This entire argument reads like it was written by someone who still thinks the internet is a fad. It’s not 1997 anymore. Knowledge workers don’t collaborate by walking over to a cubicle. They collaborate across states, countries, and time zones every... — read more
Consolidating Teams for better proficiency, consistency and collaboration
Large financial institutions should consolidate functional teams into regional hub locations rather than dispersing small groups of employees across multiple states. Fragmented team structures—particularly where only a few employees are located in a... — read more
Assigned Seats... Does This Mean a Return to the Office Five Days a Week?
My manager told our team that we'll be assigned seats, and it sounds like this is happening throughout the entire building—not just our group. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm curious whether assigned seating is a sign of a broader... — read more
Office conditions
Why does nobody address the condition of the offices and the health hazards they may impose. Conditions are extremely unsanitary, and I believe as an organization we can do better…how do we gain some momentum in this regard as going into the office... — read more
Pension Plan
I am a longer term employee who fears I may be part of the next round of layoffs and I’m not at retirement age yet. Several people on this site have mentioned a change to the pension plan for long term employees. Can anyone shed more light for those... — read more
Acquisition??
What’s with the reduced spending? Haven’t seen it like since 2000!!!
Remote friendly companies?
Since this is a layoff-focused community, it would be really helpful if people could share companies they’ve found to be remote friendly or that don’t limit hiring based on geographic location. I think that information could benefit a lot of us. It... — read more
Town hall recording edited missing Q&A
Today they posted a link to the town hall recording. I missed the event so I was looking forward to watching. Watched the entire recording but it was only 38 minutes long for an hour long call! They deleted the Q&A!!!! Talk about a lack of trust... — read more
Acquisition????
Spending has been halted. They are looking at every nickel and dime. Is the bank being acquired? I haven’t seen it like this since 2000
RM&C Ask Me Anything
Let’s light JR up on this call today. Doubt we get truthful answers, but would be fun to watch her squirm.
Town Hall July 28th
I have not received this Town Hall invite. Does anyone know any upcoming news surrounding Us Bank Home Mortgage employees?
How’s everyone feeling these days? Morale check + future plans
Just wanted to get a pulse on how folks are doing lately. Morale seems pretty mixed across teams. With the direction the company’s been going and the culture shifts over the past couple years, how long do you realistically see yourselves staying at... — read more
Taking the US out of USBank
Same day as the town hall, get a call saying how remote workers are getting laid off and their work is moving to India. Probably one of the many rounds of this. How much will need to be offshored before they take US out of the name?
Every round of layoffs targets the people who know the systems
Lay off the people who built the place, keep the people who broke it, and then wonder why nothing gets better. U.S. Bank in a nutshell.
Wealth Management Dumpster Fire
Trying to post this for the third time. Keeps getting taken down. Asking when DF will be replaced. For his efforts in losing talented team members and hundreds of millions in AUM, he was rewarded with the Chief Investment Officer role for the fifth... — read more
Remote employees, got a problem being forced to go to hub? Talk to your manager
GK: Remote employees are grandfathered in and we do not have mass layoff. Lowly employees : But I was just told I either move 2,000 miles to MN or get laid off. GK: Each department head make their own decisions whether to eliminate remote... — read more
WCIBO...
What is going on? We got the email about George Dyer with the town hall next week, but we just got a meeting invite from our L5 named 'quick update'. I've sat through countless calls that were named this because folks were laid off. Anyone know... — read more
Competence is Punished Here
I've been at the bank long enough, and in enough different roles, to finally understand how the place actually rewards performance. The reward for hard work isn't recognition. It isn't career growth. It isn't additional compensation. It's more... — read more
No, I don't trust this leadership
Every town hall, they ask us to trust leadership's vision. But vision doesn't pay the bills when half your team gets laid off. We've watched promises get walked back, strategies flip quarterly, and executives cash out while we scramble. So no, I'm... — read more
If remote employees are grandfathered, then why did my department lose all remote employees?
Last year, all of the remote employees in my department were told they need to move to OH or MN , if they decide not to relocate, they were given severance. They also were not given option to move to hub that were close to home such as in AZ or... — read more
Nonstop email emojis during townhall
Whichever employee(s) that kept pressing the emoji icons, THANK YOU! 🤣 All they needed was the Benny Hill them music in the background to complete the sh-t show.
U.S. Bank CEO Gunjan Kedia announced remote employees are grandfathered in during today's All Company Townhall!
While the bank is seemingly pursuing a direction where employees must return to an office for 60%+ of their time, during today's All Company Townhall CEO Gunjan Kedia announced that remote employees are "grandfathered in". It is unclear the extent... — read more
"Attrition is low and people love working here"
BECAUSE THE ECONOMY IS AWFUL AND NOBODY IS HIRING
There she goes again…”we will support you leaving”
Pretty much…if you don’t like it, leave. I’m working on that, Gunjan, don’t worry. It’s clear if you are remote or not in one of the main hubs, there is no longer any growth for you. They want you to leave. So disheartening after years of... — read more
It is wrong to grandfather in remote employees
If that is even true. I know you people don't want a two class society at USBank but leadership caused this mess. If remote employees can be grandfathered then past employees should have been given a route to become remote too.
What’s the over/under hold music question guy is still employed tomorrow?
GK said it was brave to have their name attached and fake laughed it off I’d say 50/50 chance!
There you have it
Gunjan just said that remote employees are being grandfathered in. Can we please stop the fear mongering now?
Townhall!
Is this the most tone deaf, worthless, let them eat cake townhall this company has ever had to date? I think so...
Ethics at this company are a d-mbster fire
The fact that she can get on an all-company townhall and just blatantly lie is wild. My faith in this company has fallen so far that I no longer even trust USB to manage my money. Have been transferring my and my parents accounts to other... — read more
The Layoff Spin
The way they continue to spin our questions into something easily dismissed is astonishing. 'Concerns about layoffs programs.' 'We don't have a layoff program like other companies.' And a swift move to the next question. These clowns are the worst of... — read more

Look for other places have jobs GK just said that in the Townhall?

All Hands TownHall On BINGO
RTO? Outsourcing to India?? OVERALL CULTURE? LAY OFFS? ANGRY STAKEHOLDERS??!? Whats on everyones cards lol
Is it true JR in RMC is forcing remote people to choose?
I heard a rumor. Is it true that JR in RMC area gave remote employees an ultimatum to choose either to relocate to a hub or lose their jobs by July 31st? I heard they have until July 31st to choose what they're doing and if they decline to relocate... — read more
Layoff in St Louis markets
Just let go a lot of small business Specialist and the ones they are keeping are called something else now. That entire role is going virtual in the future...just FYI. For now they are thinning the herd.
