Mortgage
A supervisor is already training contractors from India. She also included that December will be the last month for any remote employees left in the Mortgage Center. So we shall see.
No Tax Breaks for Outsourcing Act
If you want to curtail the bank's efforts to ship jobs overseas, push your respective critters in Congress to revive S.409: No Tax Breaks for Outsourcing Act (https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/119/s409/text). Anything short of a huge public... — read more
EFCC Layoffs?
Does anyone have any word on EFCC layoffs? I heard they onboarded more contractors who are remote, but threaten to layoff existing remote… make it make sense.
Assigned seats notification...
A co-worker shared an email for Energy Park in St. Paul, MN about assigned seats starting July 31st. You are to respond and pick your preferred spot. I suppose those that don't respond will get a spot assigned for them. Did any other hubs get this... — read more
After four months of searching, I finally have an interview
It's been nearly two decades since I last interviewed. I'm thrilled and terrified at the same time.
June RTO data
It got corrected
GB&L Compliance
Questions: How many were affected? What metric was used to decide who? Will there be any more groups hit this week or month?
Gunjan never learned this simple lesson
One thing I’ve noticed in the leadership is the constant comparison to companies doing something worse. Employees raise concerns about losing remote work after years of proving it can be successful. Response: “Other banks require five days. We’re... — read more
Happy birthday U.S. Bank employee
G.K. wrote “Expectations may change. Experiences may evolve”. Such a passive aggressive tone. We get it G.K., you hate your employees. We’ve know that since day one. You’re going to push people to leave, lay people off and make the survivors as... — read more
Business not Personal
Sike! It’s absolutely personal with this MC. You can genuinely tell these are horrible human beings even outside of the workplace and get off on the cruelty they are inflicting on their workforce.
After Labor Day - 5 Days a Week
Mandatory 5 Days (6 hours minimum) in the office starting after Labor Day 2026.
Like talking to a wall
Why are managers asking for feedback when they don't want to hear it? I share my thoughts, I make suggestions, and nothing happens. Problems remain problems and nothing ever changes. It's now a pattern where they ask, I answer, and they ignore it... — read more
Gunjan needs to push Dilip on leadership accountability, especially around Cloud Migration
With the former Head of Cloud Migration no longer with the organization, many employees are questioning why the same leadership structure and operating model continue unchanged. This includes leaders such as Hewitt, Orella, Kaul, Lucero, and other... — read more
If remote workers are being laid off give proof
No more rumors
RMC Layoffs?
With JR making a comment with no real transparency, and RMC being so big does anyone have any info on business lines within RMC being impacted?
All remote workers to be laided off
Former tech manager here. Had dinner with my old boss last night, he's retiring soon so he said he doesn't care if I let the cat out of the bag. Basically if you are remote and choose not to move to a hub, the plan is to fire you during Q4. Jobs will... — read more
Compliance clowns
The 2LOD has gone mad! Dare you ask them to explain their risk concern or interpret guidance in a consistent and unbiased manner. Instead they manipulate the narrative to inflate their egos. They will be the demise of the bank as they are a... — read more
Layoffs
Remember when the whole point of this site was to discuss and share what we were hearing about layoffs? It’s been co-opted by complainers complaining about the fact that they have jobs. Weird.
NAN you to death
If I hear the word NAN one more time. Why does US Bank not get it. No one has time for that cr-p. I have never seen branch more micromanaged than they are right now. TOXIC place to work with unethical behavior happening all over the place. Wish this ... — read more
New employee, health plans are a joke
Do you people pick between these two or get your own Healthcare plan? Which ones if you do? What is this bullsht about meeting a high deductible with UHC not covering a tiny percent until you meet the deductible?? What a clown show.
RTO for Mortgage??
There has been no mention about RTO for mortgage. In fact, in NJ, PA and parts of NY, the closest hub is NYC which is way outside of the 30 miles everyone is talking about. Any word on this?
Tech All Staff - Friday 17th

4 day RTO??
Is that officially happening?
Why are they bothering with Mid year review for Remote employees if they plan to lay us off!?
Why are they wasting peoples time? Now that the cat is out of the bag and remote employees and Employees not in the same hub as their team are being targeted for future layoffs, why do they torture us and the Manager by having mid year? Just give us... — read more
Are remote and certain hub employees being let go?
What's going on? When will the announcement happen?
It doesn’t look good for smaller hubs
After the JR staff meeting today, I am more worried for my job than ever. It’s not about just RTO anymore or that they’re outsourcing a lot of positions. I got the strong impression that RMC ( and other business lines likely) will have designated... — read more
Flex Office Use
Curious what your locations are like around the use of flex office space. As we know these offices should be used for private conversations or meetings as needed and not to be used for a full day of work. Is your location like mine where anyone with... — read more
Protect yourself
I can't emphasize enough the importance of documenting everything. I was a top performer and they still tried to push me out without severance. Paperwork saved me. So make sure to keep records of everything. Emails, feedback, literally everything you... — read more
Make sure you take your Vacation time!
If you are in Minneapolis, make sure you use your vacation time before you quit. They apparently don’t pay out unused vacation anymore for several states that allow it? Just learned from my friend that got out and lost a week.
Anyone still happy here?
I genuinely hate everything about this place. The work, the boss, the people, the politics, it's all awful. This isn't the same company I joined and I'm counting the days until I can get out.
Did anyone get an email from their Manager to leave early today for 4th of July?
At my old Bank, we usually only work half day so we can go out early to celebrate the holidays. I am surprised not to sd an email from any of the managers. What happened to people first and celebration of holidays?!!
Q3 Layoffs coming
The Goonjin spawn just pushed a task for cuts. Be ready. L1-L2 are now going to start identifying who and what goes. Nothing new of course but I’m so sick of it.
No 4th of July themed e-card?
Can anyone find an e-card for the 4th of July? Seems odd U.S. Bank wouldn’t want to celebrate that holiday.
Outsource Jobs, Lose Customers
American jobs belong in America—not overseas. Stop rewarding companies that outsource our livelihoods. Close your USB accounts. Make your voice count.
USB stock price over $60
Feeling grateful to be part of such a successful company! Maybe the RTO policy has effectively separated the wheat from the chaff.
From Watching Layoffs to Feeling Like I'm Next
Last year, 85% of my team was laid off and replaced with an offshore team in India. Watching so many talented colleagues lose their jobs was incredibly difficult, and now it feels like I'm slowly being pushed out too. It's hard not to feel uncertain... — read more
So much for most ethical bank
Managing committee forcing senior leaders to attend meetings to get in line and brainwash staff into supporting them so survey results go up.
