Any predictions on Q3 earnings?

I'm sure we will beat expectations but I'm not sure by how much. I wouldn't be surprised if we come in around $1.25 as long as we don't take a restructuring charge above the usual.

Our best is not good enough

No matter how hard you work, sometimes our best is never good enough. There is no consideration that we are working with less people, juggling so many ba--s. Some people just don’t care how stretched thin we are - just that they want or demand... — read more

Troll on this site

Is the same person posting under numerous companies. The only way to get rid of this horrible person is downvoting his posts. Do not reply to him at all. He will eventually move in like he did from the BOA postings.

BNY Mellon leadership does not care about you

You're a dime a dozen for them. As soon as the new need for short-term cost savings appears, you're as good as gone. Keep this in mind 24/7. Keep it in mind when you are expected to work nights, or on weekends, or when you need to pick up somebody... — read more

Is Peakon anonymous?

So is Peakon really anonymous? The manager told us to give them 9s and 10s, otherwise it raises alarms and reflects negatively on our team. But I want to rebel this foolishness if I can stay anonymous.
