Remote staff are clearly expendable

Do you know why Wayne's all-hands meeting comment to remote staff about "having the courage to post for hybrid roles and proving you're the right person for the job" was a load of cr-p? Wanna know why that segment of discussion was removed from the... — read more 

RTO & Performance Bonus

I've heard LOBs are being given the autonomy to decide on bonus impacts to individuals that do not "meet" the RTO guidelines. Are others hearing this as well? I do not understand how an organization with its second largest "campus" being remote can... — read more 

RTO

A true “hybrid” is 2 days in office, not 3 and definitely not 4. So with the required 3 days starting up on Sept 1 and then moving to 4 in Jan 2024, this is what will probably happen. USAA wants the buildings occupied, no secret on that. Wayne knows... — read more

Exit interview

I'm done. I'm going to GTFOH as soon as I can. I took notes on interactions with my boss and it's under the radar abuse. I'm the only person getting treated this way and it rarely happens in front of others. I KNOW this person will harm my... — read more 

Jason witty seems pretty smart…

Upcoming RTO - low morale but hey, we got tacos!

Growth opportunities

I'm curious what others have to say about how much growth opportunity they had here. Sometimes I feel like it's my fault, like maybe I should have tried harder, and yet I'm aware that I simply didn't have enough opportunities to grow here.

No confidence in Wayne

I’m no fan of Wayne and hearing how he ran P&C, I was shocked when he was announced as the CEO in waiting back in Dec 2019. But, the issues with the OCC, that was years in the making and hit before he took the helm in Feb 2020. Unfortunately for him... — read more 

Layoffs August 16-18

I have this on my personal google calendar, but with no recollection as to how it was added (as I'm now in the stage of my USAA career known as "Using White Claw As A Mixer"). I am going to guess it's from a layoff posting? Anyway. That's in two... — read more

RTO is all about the huge campus

Ok I get RTO su-ks BUT has anyone considered that before COVID. Most of the staff was in that huge campus building off Fredericksburg rd. I think it boils down to those insane expenses it takes to run that campus. If it’s not occupied they are... — read more

Wayne is the Wish version of a CEO

USAA is still listing jobs as "Hybrid"

They are listing Jobs located in San Antonio as Hybrid although the job will required 4 days in office starting in January. Not suprising a deceptive company like this is STILL lying to potential employees.

Buckle in, remote friends.

Expect your calls to be picked apart word by word. It does not matter if you’re meeting your metrics. It does not matter if you’re new or seasoned. If you’re remote, you’re in their line of sight. And not in a good way. Goals revolving purely... — read more
