How much longer do based at home employees have before they get the boot?

How much does it cost to park in Jersey City these days?

Does anyone know what really happen to the Pershing Chief Product Officer Sareena Dalla Brookshire? she is suddenly no longer at the firm.

Seems like every week the corporate communications is telling me to “welcome” a new MD outside hire. Every time I see it I wonder how many experienced worker bees were given the boot to make room in the budget.

After 4 days RTO goes into effect, I would be paying minimum $500 a month and 10 hours sitting in traffic/on train just to get to and from work. So many of us in this area are getting pushed out - 1/3 of the people I used to work with between 2022... — read more 

How is it I’m unable to work from home during the week taking remote calls from the office but Saturday nights I can be on a stupid resiliency call testing applications for six hours from home?

Can anyone clarify what the situation is with employees who have the Agile Flex Arrangement? Hearing mixed messages, some saying they will be back 4 days a week office from September, but I don't see anything on MySource about this.

I’m on the People Team. I was told that as a remote worker, my job will be eliminated by the RTO date (4 days in office) in September. So there’s no incentive to work. Period. Yet I’m told I need to continue to work and do my job. RV has made this... — read more

I'm US based but I like my India colleagues. Every other comment seemed like it was complaining about offshoring but the vast majority I work with are great coworkers who happen to live with a god awful work culture.

If everyone walked out for a week, together, the higher ups would have no clue what to do. They can’t lay everyone off at once, the optics would look terrible, and they’d realize who has the upper hand. Unfortunately, the trap is that 95% of people... — read more

The pay hasn’t kept up for years, but the workload just keeps growing. Every time someone leaves, the rest of us have to pick up the slack - for the same shrinking paycheck. With prices shooting up, it feels like we’re just running in place. Why are... — read more

Layoffs have been happening all the time, they’re not stopping any time soon, and that means severance. Why would you walk away when you can make the company pay you to cut you? You’re just leaving money on the table. I’d never give them the easy way... — read more
