This is good news for mediocrities, that they can be very comfortable at BofA even though they lack skills. There are still great employees here, but mediocrities are on the rise and employee competencies have not been important for a long time now... — read more 

Think the recession is a problem? Wait until you add on 12 more months of poor management and young inexperienced workers. 5 hour tasks taking 60 because of inefficiency, continued piling up of work, and morale in the gutter. Yikes

I know most of you don't care but this is a huge step for me. I will miss my teammates but that's it. I will not miss my as----e manager and I'll miss the bank even less. To those of you who are staying, I wish you all the best and I hope you find a... — read more 

And I’m the only one in the office. I don’t understand why so many are continuing to work from home.

The people I talk to are hating their jobs and can't wait to leave. I'm in the same position. WFH changed everything for me. I realized how much I was losing and how little I was gaining by going to the office. For two years, I did my job with a... — read more 

I’m hoping to negotiate an internal offer after posting for a promotion. I have a target salary in mind so trying to see who I would have to convince to get it approved?

I really really , did I say really hate doing these self assessments. Yes, through the year I have a document I keep track of what is going on. I jot down what I’ve done etc.. However putting it together for my Manager is where I get lost. A... — read more 

I'm still debating whether it is a good idea now, with impending recession, to move to another big bank. I will appreciate any advice.

Wondering if you have heard of any potential of opening up the 3-7% wage adjustment to the $100k-$250k band? Beginning to look due to COL increasing and my pay didn’t move.

I think the percentage of people who answer questions honestly in these surveys is very small. Who wants to tell the truth and who believes that honest answers will serve to make some changes for the better here? I believe that only those who... — read more 

How long can we stay out of the office if we are Covid-19 positive?

Funny how he can say he gets paid well in his position, but they leave out anyone over $100k in the increase while inflation is sky high and gas is the most it’s ever been. How about instead of making insensitive comments about how you’re compensated... — read more

We have several open positions and were just advised we had to stop interviewing and could not fill before the end of the year. What the he-l? We are all doing 2 and 3 jobs to try and get the work done and all of a sudden our funding is pulled?

Anyone else notice it doesn’t seem like the normal constant reminders to participate in the employee engagement survey are as much this year?

How many are going to office, swiping, and just going home?

I'm actually looking to come back, probably a crazy move but I kinda miss the don't work Friday situation. Any insight on how many external hires are being considered these days?

Please do not hate on me or judge me. I have a few questions regarding the Employee Engagement Survey. Is it really anonymous? There is so much I want to say, but worry they will know it came from me. I am not shy when it comes to telling my Manager... — read more 

I know a lot of people who feel the same way. I would say that's the goal but we're already understaffed and unable to hire more people, so it can't be it. Does the leadership really not see how much this issue means to a lot of us? Are they really... — read more 

I recently had a debate with a friend who works for direct competitors about why working for BofA is better, or worse, than working for direct competitors. Apparently, the differences are in the nuances and are mostly seen in long term. What do you... — read more 

I currently work in a client facing position and accepted a position with another firm. When I put in my two weeks, will I be required to work the two weeks or will I be asked to leave immediately because I am a risk?

It’s really not clear to me how I used to be able to handle the atmosphere in the office, and now I can’t bear it. I'm not talking about gas prices and time lost driving to and from work, but specifically just about enduring the atmosphere in the... — read more 

Managers going up the vertical ladder are starting to complain and gripe about productivity dropping and errors increasing. They are all raising a fuss when I am laughing and showing them a mirror. A big delicious fat mirror all shiny and glowing and... — read more 

They see us as numbers with no rights and no needs. They act like what we want couldn't mean less and do the opposite of what would make the majority of employees happy. We're at the point where people are praying to be laid off just to get away -... — read more 

There has been a lot of talk about our workloads. God knows they are becoming too much. A lot of people say that we should just do 40 hours and go home. To be perfectly honest, if I did that a lot of my work wouldn’t get done. But what actually... — read more 

Anyone know the cap range for b5 roles? I was excluded from this past round of increases by a few hundred dollars. Trying to understand if there is still good compensation growth if I look for other B5 opportunities rather then staying narrows at... — read more 

BofA doesn’t care that employees are overworked and burned out. I don't even expect my manager to notice that I can't handle more work. Of course people leave because they can’t cope with so much stress. Health and well-being should come first... — read more 

Unlike six months ago, not many people are leaving right now. The leadership knows this. They know many of us are worried about a recession and don't plan to rock the boat right now, so they are using that to their advantage. Employees who received a... — read more

Can someone post the article? I hit my limit lol

The gas prices keep increasing each and every week making RTO so hard on my family.Has anyone been ordered to come in person but continues to work from home? Has anyone received a write up or fired for not coming into the office??

So many people are moving to new internal roles. Good for them, except their roles are not being replaced! Their work is expected to be absorbed by those remaining. So they need to stop bragging about filling roles with internal candidates because... — read more

This shlitty raise they are giving us is a slap in the face. Do these azzholes know that gas is at 6 dollars a gallon. How the fck do they expect us to live off that and RTO in the middle of a pandemic. With this increase, I can't even buy a pack of... — read more 

I’m curious what the protocol is for someone to get fired (not laid off). I’m in a right to work state so I know they can fire at anytime for any reason, but just curious if The bank has a certain path they follow before actually firing someone. — read more 

I hear some people in auto/credit were able to get hybrid. Also QA sent back home. Not sure if this is true. But does anyone actually know which LOB got approval for hybrid?

I've noticed this happening and it's hard to understand why it's happening. As an employee who loves his job and cares about doing it as best as he can, it demoralizes me a lot. Encouraging bad behavior is a way for managers to punish good... — read more
