I learned something the hard way today
In a meeting someone stated something factually incorrect. Not an opinion, a fact. I gently pointed out the error with evidence and you would have thought I insulted their mother. The room went freezing cold, and later I was told I need to work on my... — read more

Ethics complaint?
Has anyone filed one? Did you sign your name? Or stay anonymous? Was any action taken? Did you fear retaliation?
This isn't normal
What you're dealing with here isn't how it has to be. I went to another big bank and everything is better. Nicer people, working tech, and leaders who actually try.
RTO is becoming financially impossible
Commute expenses just keep climbing. It's not only gas, everything is just getting more expensive. Only my paycheck is still frozen at WFH-era levels.

What is everyone hearing about WPE changes
I’ve heard the 4/1 change is on hold, but they are monitoring/reporting and will come out with changes to address ‘bad’ behavior like coffee badging. What is everyone else hearing? I find it so strange we were communicated a change and then nothing... — read more

Plano Office: Where 'Work' Means Coffee-Badging
Come on guys, what a joke. Plano office is basically a ghost town of productivity. Hardly anyone actually working. My entire team? Mostly H4EAD housewives from Telangana who’ve been here 10+ years and still have zero clue how the software... — read more
WPE

Teams and One Drive
Anyone else find Teams to be not very user-friendly and a bit disorganized and chaotic? I spent far too much time having to look for conversations or clear out notifications.. it’s just a mess. Thought I would get used to it, but it’s been long... — read more
Pinnacle Award

We’re burning billions because leadership is clueless about AI
It’s the "who you know" club all over again. We’ve got directors jumping into "AI Lead" roles who clearly haven't read a technical paper in years. They’re still pushing 2023-era prompting guides like they’re some kind of holy grail, even though... — read more
This is such a broken way to operate
I spend all day in pointless meetings that add zero value. Then I have to work late to actually get my work done because there's no time during the day. It's a constant cycle of falling behind.

Why is she still here? She failed in her most precious task and i see her on LinkedIn accepting paid for bogus awards "best HR person" at some HR boondoggle in Orlando or Phoenix with a bunch of HR Eco chamber id--ts. Sheri did you pay for those... — read more

Critical thinking > Co Pilot and automation
