With the guise of "we need backups in case you're out" I'm on a team that handles a lot of data, and now I'm being told I have to work on tech support, essentially, which is something another team member does. And now I'm being asked to teach my... — read more

What's going on with CPS RTO?
I have several coworkers who I have never actually seen in the office, save for maybe once or twice in a few months. What's with this straight-up refusal to come into the office? And yes, I get it - I hate the in-office requirement too (especially in... — read more

AI layoff talk and RTO chatter, did I miss a meeting?
All these posts about 20 percent layoff because of AI and RTO, did I miss A meeting yesterday or an email? I see nothing on intranet or email
28% and Dropping
GK's approval rating is at an abysmal 28% on GlassDoor. Does the board of directors even care what she has done to destroy employee morale and engagement?
CIOs Has No Clue About AI but Is Pushing Layoff Narrative
Concerned by the AI narrative being pushed at our company. Leadership keeps touting "AI transformation" and workforce reduction as if it’s a silver bullet, but there's little clarity on the actual tech roadmap or even basic understanding of how to... — read more
Congratulations Complainers
Goodbye to useless roles and lazy people who complain about doing the minimum, RTO, and coffee badging. If you don't think for once that people are not talking about you especially your teammates, think again. The majority are fed up with your... — read more
Hub locations- violence- USB response

Any new layoff news?
Anyone have any knowledge of layoffs happening soon? It seems like a lot of teams are under the microscope of automation and process improvements with no real direction on where we are going.
WiPro Bancorp
Something that should be alarming to everyone, especially in light of the RTO chaos, is that it really seems like the bank is being taken over by WiPro. If you step back, you can see: LOS's are being replaced with WiPro systems. Overwhelming of... — read more

Considering applying for portfolio manager. Is it a good job? Are people happy in their jobs?
Glassdoor
It's getting worse. Start back with the down votes on Glassdoor!
Future of Remote Managers of Managers
How much longer will remote managers of managers last here? The excuse that you manage a geographically dispersed business line doesn't hold water. You should be expected to work out of a hub like the rest of the employees.
CAS
Try being a first line risk team working with CAS. They lie and become aggressive in trying to remain relevant. They stress every one out and do not act like a true audit team. It is really sad (Js we r looking at u). They build no trust with any... — read more
Should I go to another department?
I started with Customer Service and it feels like a really negative environment. Not the customers, but the leaders and senior leaders. Is it worth transferring to another department or is it the same through out the company? Any hope the senior... — read more
If you signed up with US Bank recently, what drew you in?
The reputation hasn’t been great, so was it desperation or something else? No judgment, just trying to understand the mindset of newer folks.
RM&C expense management
When does GK take a look at some of the wasted expenses in rm&c? Managers with a couple directs, tons of reg issues, and a reputation risk group that isn’t needed
How far in advance do managers know about a RIF?
Part of a RIF last year and I can’t get it out of my head my manager had to of known I would be part of it for at least a month or more beforehand. 1:1s were pointless usually less than 10 minutes long. No interest in me or my career or helping me... — read more

Overworked and undervalued
My salary’s been basically the same for years (insulting raises just for the sake of being able to say they gave me a raise), even as my workload keeps growing. I enjoy working here, but the job’s lost its spark with how little they care about us... — read more
Mentally Drained
Is it possible to get workers compensation or disability for being mentally drained from office work and PTSD from having to go in the office? Can I get a doctor note to WFH or have reduced work schedule?
Anyone notice that our favorite disruptive influence isn't active on weekends?
Ever wonder why that is?
Promotion without a pay raise
Am I being low balled? I was recently promoted from grade 12 to grade 13 without a pay raise. Only change in compensation is my bonus increase from 8% to 10%. But I take on a lot of new responsibilities.
Nobody wants to stay here
Our director left for a job with "fewer responsibilities" and a 20% pay cut. Let that sink in. If the people who get paid to pretend everything’s fine are noping out, what chance do the rest of us have? LinkedIn’s looking real tempting right now. — read more

Badge Swipes???
Are they tracking our badge outs too? I want to badge in and go home and relax
IT Support
With offshoring, it's going to get even worse. The technical support is horrible. The techs ask you the same questions over and over and over and over.
CCC E-mail
If you haven't checked your e-mail, read the backhanded apology by Gunjan. Makes here sound even more clueless.
