Who are the best leaders in what org and why?

Enterprise wide. Some got notices, others finding out their new org and boss.

Seems weird that with people getting laid off, they open up a brand new facility with hardly anyone there. Mostly Fraud and AML from what I've heard

Total team size: 25 (80% remote) # of Directors: 4 (100% remote) # of Leads: 16 (75% remote) Other: 5 Out of the 21 analysts, 16 are Leads (76%) Can we please promote the other 5 of us to Lead and make us Remote too?

Wasn't able to join, but saw the slack thread and didn't see much on there about what actually happened

Ingraham on Fox: “Does that mean the H1-B visa thing will be deprioritized for the administration” Trump: “We you have to have Talent” Ingraham on Fox: “Sir, we have plenty of Talent here in America” Trump: “No, you don’t, no you don’t, no you... — read more 

I can’t imagine more cuts would come this year, anyone think otherwise?

Startling statistic, likely the start of a trend. “U.S.-based employers cut more than 150,000 jobs in October, marking the biggest reduction for the month in more than 20 years, a report by Challenger, Gray & Christmas said on Thursday as... — read more 

Seriously. Go to another bank. Find the strength of racism that exists no where else only at our finest USAA. even more odd, most employees are actually supportive and help one another at other banks. We have a deep rot here. its why we only... — read more 

Just want to get info before I change positions please.

Our terrible RE management strikes again! We had 2 Directors: one everyone loved and respected who was onsite, the other we all complain about in our Pulse surveys who is in a completely different office and is horrible to work with. A reasonable... — read more 

Thoughts on this comment from an AVP : team members who are earning higher salary should have more on their plates. (Exact same titles)

Some leaders make claims that they know who posts on the site and can track it (even if not at work) who can confirm if they are just using it as a scare tactic?

The right one to lead the bank out of this self-inflicted downward spiral. How many word fumbles and nervous gestures are allowed? Who is the backup? When will the bank be sold? For the good of the membership, just like the Investment Management... — read more

Are we just not even going to pretend to be a compliant & sound bank? Has USAA just given up on quality leaders, innovation, member focus and truly caring about its employees. We’ve gotten so used to scraps around here, when id--ts with a title... — read more 

where’s the genius posting weekly that AML is about to have layoffs - after AGAIN - for the 12 time in a row - not having layoffs. “Mr. Shut Up” should be the only reply to that person who keeps posting their propaganda. Additionally, this is the... — read more 

Nothing says USAA cares like handing out 60 day notices to a little over 200 people, just days before the holiday season begins. The 60 days ends right after Christmas (12/28). And of course our dear bank President Mike Mo--n, makes things even... — read more 

Bank layoffs. Data & Analytics hit (again and again). Not sure about others.

Go to x.com and search for @usaa and click "Latest" at the top and have a look, lots to look at, at least 3 whistle blowers have come forward providing information about whats going on at USAA to the public. It looks like Navy Federal is doing the... — read more 

USAA went from being a decent to a horrible place to work in the last few years. I'm ready to move on, and it'd be even better if they paid me to do so.

Nobody deserves to feel miserable every day. Go find somewhere that treats you like a person, not a robot.

With the number of layoffs since 2022, does anyone know how or who selects the people or areas that get hit? Is it HR? Earlier this year when a girl on my team was notified, our ED said she didn’t know until that morning and my director said he... — read more 

Are we paying attention to FRED - why are banks frantically sell off Treasury bonds and Mortgages? Banks are saying they have a capital and liquidity issue. They are selling off all their bonds (like taking your gold and diamonds to a pawn shop)... — read more 

I know this post will hurt some feelings but be practical. Think about your future and your dependents future and start looking out first a job before you and your team gets layed off.

"I dont need an executive council" screams arrogance, maybe he can make all the decisions himself but it usually ends in disaster. Every smart leader needs smart people around them.

What a total bore fest… What the heck were these people even saying?????

I've heard more rumors about layoffs continuing throughout the month. What are the chances that's not true? I'm so exhausted from layoffs that I could use at least some time not to have to worry 24/7.

I thought a number of EVPs transitioned out of USAA and some other leaders were promoted. But the website seems to still have old info. Have the changes not happened yet?

It’s just for fun: “If USAA does plan a major layoff, it is most likely to occur before the end of 2025, perhaps in late Q4 2025 (October–December), as part of restructuring under the new CEO’s agenda.” It also talks about if there’s someone does... — read more 

Anyone know or hear who was impacted?

My Director mentioned that there’s a leadership meeting on October 8th same day as the October Employee Meeting. Only Directors and above are included in the leadership meeting. This is unfair to the Lead level. Leads are Leaders without direct... — read more

The last day before Christmas bonus cutoff. Will there be layoffs?

So anyone got any insight for layoffs in fraud? Ive been hearing rumors that it’ll be bye bye bfcc 👀😮‍💨

Did anyone else not get the email from Juan? Just curious if I'm fired because I will need to update my resume

There have been hardly any senior or lead positions open in the data space. Even if something is posted, looks like they are mostly labor filing related openings and you get a response back that you do not meet the expectations. No calls no nothing... — read more
