Another Bank VP “Retirement”
Last minute VP retirement on Friday afternoon and an external replacement announced to be in place this coming Monday morning. Must be nice to retire on a whim. And what ever happened to NEO for executives? They need it the most.
Want to leave, looking for another job
Been doing it for a while, even expanded search beyond our subsection of the industry. No luck so far. It’s been only 3 months that I started, and I got some offers but they just weren’t good. I’m starting to panic a little bit, because the job... — read more
401(K) Match for Bank Severance
Does anyone know if they allow you to contribute any of your severance proceeds toward your 401(K)? If so, do they also honor the company's standard 401(K) match? I'm assuming not but curious if anyone knows for sure.
Unionize
Time to create a union. Management has an open door policy, HR cares so much for the welfare of the employees, and the executives sincerely want to make things better! So, talks should begin about creating a union for employees that want to join. ... — read more
Self-serving boss
Will someone help me understand why/how my ED is in a 5-hour seminar about finance for members — not member facing because she works in HR. Meanwhile, she doesn’t care that we have more ER cases than we can manage. Disgusting.
New CISO has a layoff plan
Sorry folks not to be trusted
It truly doesn't matter who it is
I don't think the new CEO will do anything to help any single one of us. Those who think this will bring change for the better are naive at best. These are corporate games and we're nothing but meaningless peons to them. So in essence, it doesn't... — read more

Wayne Peacock's Legacy
Put the money aside for a moment. Can you imagine dedicating your life's work to become the worst CEO in the history of a company that's existed for over 100 years? What an incredible achievement.
Question about non rehirable
If you were let go and your manager put non rehire. HR says that it’s manager discretion, even though it was for one metric. Are you ever able to reapply?? I told HR that there is no reason I should be a non rehire as I did nothing explicit to the... — read more
Is this a Bob Davis exit moment ?
I'm getting my fingers crossed. All we need is Board to fire rest of the EMGs reporting directly to Wayne. Get a new CEO & Team. GO USAA !!!!!!!!
CEO Tom?
Why did they not announce Tom for the CEO role? I thought he was the succession plan.
Was the CEO “retired” over falling ESAT scores?
Wayne sounded nervous in the last town hall, and then this random town hall came on. In corporate America, I’ve never heard of a score that low. Perhaps the board cared most about that? Overall, good riddance. Childishly, ding-do-g the Wayne is... — read more

Suggestions for a Whistleblower attorney w/experience dealing with USAA?

Just rumors, or do we know it for a fact? I heard it from diff colleagues, but they don’t know anything for sure.
USAA is abusive
How else would you characterize a culture where fear and punishment are legitimate management tools and bullying by management is never punished in any way? I think that's the definition of an abusive environment. No wonder so many of us are looking... — read more

A Review of Wayne Peacock as a Leader
Wayne Peacock has literally obliterated every thing he has touched at USAA, with his hair brain schemes. Remember MX? Employees literally HATE him. He single handedly destroyed the best employee satisfaction scores in Corporate America. He... — read more

Are leaders talking about the settlement? “USAA reaches $64M settlement over accusations of federal violations” Naturally, the company does not admit any wrong doing. Such an honest company. You reap what you sow.

Well-placed EMG source in ECIO mentioned that the next round of layoffs in ECIO are planned for September. ECIO is going to target Agile roles, especially those that are remote workers. ECIO sees these roles as providing limited value and even more... — read more
How does USAA get away with firing people so easily?
I know right to work state, but I have never seen this in a "professional" environment, sometimes no PIP is even issued.

Anyone know what they’re gonna meander on about tomorrow?
20% work - 80% bullsh-t
I just can’t efficiently work with all pointless procedural steps, million small things that must be done even though they have no impact whatsoever on results, and loss of time and energy to managing managers who are breathing down my neck because... — read more
