My favorite statement in this article "The greater the distance between the C.E.O.’s home and the company’s headquarters, the greater the performance gap."
New Location after new year?
I work in the tower in Winston Salem. Found out the lease for our specific floor was renewed on 10/1 and is renewed until 2030! I believe this to be a positive sign as I was worried about location change to Charolette being imminent!

NEW retail mortgage comp plan
I heard that the retail HMCs and PMBs have a new comp plan today. In MN, it will be a salary of 15.57 per hour. No draw. Big cuts in bps in the tiers. $150 min commission, which is down.
RTO and PTO
Does taking a full week of PTO count towards your average in-office week. If I go in once this week and take a full week next week, will I show up on a report?

Wealth Mgt layoffs
Anyone heard about layoffs in WIM. RTO was set for 2/3. So guessing non hub will be 30-60 days after that. Most unsettling part is managers aren’t talking to people. I know this isn’t a shock to anyone but it’s pathetic to let rumors fly and give... — read more
How long, you think, until they lay off diligent RTO worker?
I’ve been a good RTO drone. Whatever stupid rules they come up with, I cheerfully comply with. I will not quit. How long until they’re fed up and lay me off? I think it’s only reasonable to be paid to leave. I haven’t been working my a-s off for... — read more
No parental leave for miscarriage or stillbirth?
I'm reading the parental leave policy and it seems miscarriage and stillbirth isn't covered. Are they seriously only willing to pay you if you are lucky enough to have a healthy birth?! Way to add insult to injury by not being eligible for pay during... — read more

It looks like I’ve managed to survive the year without being laid off! I did go on medical leave for several months for a surgery. Does anyone know if I will receive a regular bonus or if it is pro-rated for the time I was away on leave?

Any reporters out there?
I am sick of this obvious takeover of foereigners in this bank and I am ready to talk. Put your info here and I will spill it all to you. Something needs to be done on the obvious discrimination on Americans at this bank
2025 hours in the office monitored
Can someone with real inside knowledge on the issue chip in? How are they enforcing minimum hours in the office for salaried people? The handbook doesn't even specify anything .
I personally don’t care about being laid off
I hate my job here so much that it would be a welcomed resolution to a toxic relationship. I’m scared of the future, worried about my livelihood, and anxious about prospects of finding another job. But I also reached the point where I would prefer... — read more
