How out of touch do you have to be to refer to RTO as the "future of work?" Everybody and their mother know that all the smart companies are pivoting to WFH permanently because that's obviously the way of the future, but not us. No, for us, the old... — read more 

This is a fine idea, they will slowly replace us, older employees with experience with new hires who do not have much experience but are not expensive. However, they seem to completely ignore the fact that this place is no longer attractive to the... — read more 

For those in office to get to enjoy recognition. All those wfh are left out yet again

I feel a little embarrassed and sad that I am one of the few who hasn't resigned. I couldn't find anything better. However, I was also surprised by how many colleagues gave notices, but I guess it was an even bigger surprise for BNYM? I don't believe... — read more 

Haven't been receiving emails my coworkers have been receiving. I assume that means the unvaxxed will be liquidated on Monday? Or are they just going to keep giving me the silent treatment? Fire me or don't you cowards

I can’t wait to return. Free coffee and tea. Photo station to take selfies with all my coworkers. Smile for the camera. No smooching 💋💋 what’s better than that? Perhaps ice cream with sprinkles 🍦🍦🍦

I accepted an offer with BNY. The recruiter stated he is processing my offer and my start date will be March 7th. Haven't received the offer letter or any response from the recruiter in 3 weeks. What is the hiring process like from start to... — read more 

Are you fu----g kidding me?

I know of at least 40 people who got let go since September, lot of them recently in February. All making 6 figures and very good at their jobs. Mostly white males in there 40s/50s. London also hit fairly hard.

Micromanaging has been a known occurrence for a long time now. I, as a long-timer at the company, remember the times when that kind of management was not present. A manager would give you guidelines on what to do and later value your work as you... — read more 

BNYM is waiting for the appeal decision that went to the court after the Texas circuit court to see if they can mandate. I hope they get slapped with a major dose of reality .

All you coming on here just to say I hate BNYM or I’m giving notice don’t have the ba--s. That’s why you’re on here instead of typing up that resignation letter you keep talking about

I’m waiting to see the mass exodus tomorrow I’m guessing I’ll be waiting a long time

What amount of Russian stuff is BNY involved with for clients? I would guess Corporate Trust would be involved, and Custody. I know one large Custody client with billions at BNY, and our sub-custodian Citi. Are sanctions going to touch this?

How tf are you going to have a day to recognize how great employees are when 90% of the building is wfh at that time. Can we say another slap in the face ?

I did not get one, nor did several other people I know both in my department and in 2 others. I thought this was supposed to. E bank-wide. What was the criteria for getting one?

Received a teams invite to a call regarding organisational changes which the whole department has been invited to. Does this sound like potential layoffs incoming?

Has anyone been alerted as to what days their department is supposed to be returning to the office? I have heard nothing from my manager.

BNY can do nothing to you. I am getting a bonus so they can claw that back. But if you never received a bonus they can claw NOTHING back!! Also, they still have to offer you COBRA and pay you for all unused and earned vacation time.

The lame bonus (if any) will be deposited into your accounts Monday 2/28/22. Tuesday March 1st is freedom day! The day upon which your resignation notice can be delivered, with pure satisfaction. Whether it be 2 weeks, 30 days, 60 days, Tuesday is... — read more 

I know names will but what else. Have noticed a few gone and can’t figure out why.

As an essential in-office worker, the thought of seeing people again fills me with dread LOL. These past two years have felt like a vacation at work (in the building). Don't take that the wrong way- oh, trust me: I have worked my tail off. I am just... — read more 

will unvaccinated be welcomed back to the office?

Have been waiting on BNYM for over 3 weeks. Being told they need to find a subject matter expert to pull data from older system since a conversion. Guess they fired the guy who used to manage the system. Have you requested the employee... — read more

I have another position lined up. Won't start for 6 months. Even with no notice they have to offer me COBRA.

These cuts that rumors are circulating about will only spur an even bigger wave of departures, as everyone is losing patience with doing double workloads. Given that we are already understaffed, that a large number of people are missing, cuts would... — read more

Since subways are not safe, you can now bike to office and they will provide racks for parking bikes.

It’s that time where arbitrary goals are pushed down for everyone; the problem is that most are immeasurable and performance reviews boil down to who on the team got through their day with less handholding.

Leadership's expectations are ridiculous. Do they really think that employees will be committed to ensuring that BNYM meets expectations while that same leadership operates below every expectation of its employees? It's high time they rethink... — read more
