It is interesting how they constantly emphasize that these are small layoffs. Perhaps for USAA these are small layoffs, but for me almost 100 people losing their jobs is a lot. I just hope that all of them will manage to find something better soon... — read more

Does USAA offer severance with layoff? And what is it based on? Role/years?

How did we come up with our new CIO, I would have preferred the interim CIO. It seems like it's a wrong choice. Too early to tell, but I can feel it. She seems like she would accelerate attrition.
