Anyone having issues securing childcare? Had an after school program 2 days a week, and daughter rides her bike home the other 2 days since I’ve been WFH (but she wouldn’t be able to do that when I RTO- too young to be home alone). The after school... — read more

I'm still not going into the building. Any one who was called back last week any comments about the return?

RTO- not going back until they announce hybrid and require all to return (including unvaxed). And they need to figure out the lack of space between cubes.. the bank doesn’t seem to understand that there’s a new norm and being that close to a peer all... — read more 

Just one of the many pleasures of RTO.

Yep today might be Friday, but in 2 days you know what will happen, the Sunday night blues. When you realize you gotta get to bed early, so you can wake up Monday morning and fight the traffic all the way to your cubicle.

Will managers hold accountability if Q1 earning down?

I've even stopped worrying about my job (which should be good I guess?) because I stress so much about everything else that's been going on in the world. I never thought I'd be missing and praying for the days when all I worried about were layoffs... — read more 

Can anyone shed some light on if we still can request/have the ability to WFH? I work in a branch and myself and family are very high risk, I care for my grandfather who is 92 years old and I’m just nervous being exposed every day.

As you commute to work today, you realize this is the new reality, cubicle work life. 2 years of working from home is over, and ya it sucks.

Is it? Lazy managers that don’t do their job and dump all of their work onto the employee Nepotism and favoritism Constant fear of layoffs Lousy pay Or maybe it’s something else?

Honestly?

Global markets have too many managers, especially middle level managers. It is extremely inefficient and soon will hurt profitability of global markets business.

Walked in, swiped badge, bought coffee and left. Will do this a few times a week until I find a fully remote job.

To show our appreciation for your continued hard work, here's some free food. When will SLT realize we're not in grade school where a pizza party is adequate compensation for hard work?!

I am surprised by the number of colleagues who refuse to return to the office and who would rather accept a slightly worse offer than the RTO. Is BofA prepared for a scenario like this? Because, it seems to me that the leadership did not expect... — read more

If you don't return to office March 1st, what will happen? I feel like they can't fire that many employees at once without repurcussions. Or will it be like reporting the vax status and nothing will happen?

Seems the cdc is ready to change mask guidance. Will we be required to wear masks if the cdc drops this? It will be good to finally stop it since everyone in the office is vaccinated in order to RTO.

Few are in the situation where returning to the office makes sense. We adapted and busted our butts to set up home office arrangements and now the bank wants to pretend like we didn’t jump through hoops ourselves to maintain productivity.. well... — read more

"Bonus pools were up..." REALLY? From what I've heard most people got shafted with insulting bonuses and raises.... oh, except Brian, he made out like a fcking bandit.

Just curious if anyone else can shed light on how they differentiate levels of roles. Do they do job Bands or something else?
