I'm planning to submit my two weeks notice after my bonus and RSUs have vested and been paid out. Would I still be able to use any accrued vacation or sick time during that two week notice period?

Until layoffs actually happen at your work site or disclosed from credible major news sources, do not believe any posts on this forum about them. As you found out, posters do not provide the affected groups or actual information to make their rumors... — read more 

If you’re in Global Ops you received a 226 page document that apparently shows the entire nation of India got a title promotion. Wild stuff.

How are we handling the no pay increase again this year? For context I have gone above and beyond and done Jessica’s extra projects and more. There isn’t anything more that I could have done to be a role model employee. Sulk Call out “sick”... — read more 

sooo who are the lucky ones that got to become an AVP today

February

Let's be real: we're livestock to management. We're here to be worked, monitored, and eventually culled when we're too expensive. Our "value" is fixing old mistakes to avoid penalties. The goal is shareholder value, not employee well-being or... — read more 

Has anyone heard about the hiring freeze in global risk management?

BM: We had a best quarter and best year! WTF..worst pay hike, bonus and RSU’s ever. Where the money going?

Since it’s Thursday, I guess my manager is just fully committed to avoiding me about my merit/bonus conversation.

Q1 and Q2

Anyone else’s excited for their Sharing Success award! Such a thoughtful thing our company does, rewarding us with a whopping 65 units…. The RSUs and cash bonuses are pathetic. Meanwhile, BM (Bowel Movement) unloads nearly 17k shares for just under... — read more 

If the schools are closed for icy roads why isn’t the bank closing? They don’t care about our safety. Almost spun out completely. Have to come into office for my 3 days though 🤡

Everybody be prepared

Has anyone created a voice recognition profile on teams to suppress background noise?

I have been working at The Bank for over a year now so this is my first time being eligible for a raise. I started in August 2024. Did anybody else not get a raise? I’m trying to understand if it’s just me or is it something that is quite common at... — read more 

What is the best time for Sabbatical considering YE performance reviews, compensation discussions and bonus decisions

When do they discuss year end bonus? Manager already discuss the new comp but not about the year end bonus.

Just curious! Could you possibly simply get a very low bonus since you still met some expectations? Most know what a tough place this is to work for many areas. If you are an employee who always got meets/meets and then one time its meets/does not... — read more 

Good luck with your Comp discussions. Share details anonymously. LOB/Place/Band/EOY-Ratings/Pay-Incrase/Bonus (Ex; GBAM/NY/B3/M-M/+$5K/$11k)

Don't be naive and rely on this company. Use the training BofA offers to make yourself valuable to other employers. When you're in demand, a layoff notice isn't a crisis, it's an opportunity.

HI - can someone who has access to the in office attendance tracking tool please let me know the week starts for the 6 week cycles? is Feb 1 2026 a cycle start?

I'm actively looking for a new role and sending out applications weekly. This place is notably worse than any other bank I've worked for. The overall environment is just not functional.

Seems like they taking their time this year. Anyone heard anything yet? Curious to see how bad it is.

Does anyone know if the server Lag for those working from home compared to those in the office? It's been super slow today and it started around 9am.

WTF is up with your job reqs? Applied for a job (perfect quals on paper), went through Recruiter screening then to hiring manager (a B3) interview. Job description they provided was nothing like the posting nor what the Recruiter described.

I've noticed several people commenting about the need to be in the office 4 out of 6 weeks. Don't managers get notified each week when someone isn't meeting the 3-day office requirement? How are people able to use the reporting period workaround?

First quarter of 2026

Is this true? Biggest employers are replacing some workers with All Indians? https://www.axios.com/local/charlotte/2026/01/16/bank-america-wells-fargo-ai-job-cuts

I guess no awards this year. The bank needs to drop thousands of jobs to meet their efficiency target, I assume this is the start to get people to leave in their own.

With those great numbers that BM just shared, the bonuses and raises are going to be up significantly. Right?

It’s coming

Do you enjoy your actual role and what you do for the bank

Workplace Excellence weeks have been removed from the calendar for 2026. That means you have to be in office 3 days a week even during holiday weeks.

Very dangerous

Heard there will be a lot of laying off on the 6th of February from my source.

Considering moving from Wells to BOFA. Is there any talk of going from 3 days in-office to 4 or 5? Or is there a required # of hours per day you need to be in office? What else should I know?

1/6 is the date
