And as usual - the company decides to give an extra day off AFTER all the other companies decide to do it. This place can’t make a decision on its own for the life of me!

I used to worry a lot about being cut. Worrying ahead of time is just self induced suffering, it's pretty pointless. I also think that worrying, in general, is pointless. Management needs to ask themselves why there are more and more people who... — read more 

People are already talking about the target groups for the January layoffs. No one ever knows for sure who will be the target, but what I have noticed during the last rounds of layoffs is that the targets are always some of the best people. Of... — read more 

It’s always the ones who contribute to the issues on their teams who try to convince other people everyone else is the issue. You wouldn’t have problems if you actually got to work on time, stopped talking all day and actually worked

Any word on which groups will be impacted or will the 55+ get targeted?

BNY pausing return to office AFTER Apple, JPM, Wells Fargo, and Goldman is doing BNY, always a follower and never an industry leader. Clowns!!!

I don't know how our management looks at it, but it seems to me that the situation is very serious. All the best people have either already left or are leaving in large numbers. What kind of place will this be after all the talented ones leave? My... — read more 

Everything I know about BNY Mellon is a joke. So I'm assuming their legal team is third tier at best. Can someone describe BNY Mellon legal recruiting? In my city we just took the local law school flunkies. Archer

Do the following. Whenever your manager is lurking about, slam your hands or something on your desk. Also try loud exclamations using mild epithets. Loud, sudden noises. Managements biggest fear is that someone will go postal. Do not direct this... — read more 

Jim Crowley at Pershing is completely asleep. His whole company has left yet he refuses to take action. Wonder what Robin/Todd are thinking of the weak leaders under them. Then again they’re also weak leaders

For as long as nobody in the management is held accountable for their actions, things will not improve. And since that's never going to happen, the best thing to do is walk away.

Little by little, BNY Mellon has now crossed every line. A year and a half ago, they started adding more work to me. When I finally got used to it, they added more and so on. All the time I thought they had a limit, that they could feel when it was... — read more 

Would someone share salary ranges please. Thank you!

A subset of board members are dissatisfied with the pace of the IT effort to automate manual processes. Look for a new CIO in 2022.

Why are there so many of you that make life miserable for the rest of us ? You don’t want to work, always call out and have to be babysat so why not do everyone a favor and leave? Yet you are the ones who don’t get laid off either

Aside from the fact that I think most managers here are incompetent and uninterested in their work, a lot more worrying is that some of them do not really want to see happy employees?! Whenever I was happy and relaxed at work, my manager tried to... — read more 

Could never figure out why the bank doesn’t give out gift cards or gift certificates to their employees during the holidays when it’s a tax write off . Yet they’re so worried about getting recognized for community assistance and buying the whole ... — read more 

I am glad when someone gets the opportunity to work, earn, progress. However, what is Mellon saying to their longtime and most loyal employees if a new hire with little or no experience is paid as much or almost as much as they are? While... — read more 

I'm not sure if BNY Mellon is struggling to hire, or delaying hiring new people while squeezing the existing employees? As long as existing employees do a bunch of work without flaws and complaints, BNYM will be very slow at hiring new people.

For those who got bumped up, you are not merit eligible so don’t expect more money

All you have to do is read these comment sections. Bet they work like they talk . No wonder this place has gone downhill . Not announce of common sense coming from some

Wonderful

I'm curious to know why people are applying to work at BNY Mellon in this day and age. And I'm not talking about the young fresh out of school graduates with no work experience. I'm talking about the people that have years of experience in the... — read more 

Interesting that a witness from JP Morgan dropped BNYM as part of a $30MM xaction that occurred between Epstein and maxwell. BNYMs part of that wire xfer was for 7.4MM from 2007. Just when you think they can’t get any worse

Has anyone who ever left the company had to repay the tuition back? I left the company in February 2021 due to terrible management and did receive a letter asking for money back. Didn’t repay it and so far nothing else has been sent to me.

Looking for a good law firm who has had success against BNMY

He’s become a legend for his horrific behavior.

At least someone in the financial industry is speaking up. One Citi employee view against the mandatory vaccine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoU3WGsD2pk

Some say that they gained more experience, recognition and reward by working in a smaller bank than here, but my experience is not like that.... Moreover, I worked in a smaller bank where the atmosphere is much more toxic than here. I wouldn't want... — read more 

Rumor is all of you who got 'promoted' last year and did not get your raise to go with it, and were told you would be made right in 2022 - it ain't happening...... Also a rumor that this dump may be considered a "gov't contractor" for the sake of... — read more

How a company treats employees determines how well it'll do. If it treats workers like they matter, like they make a difference, they'll make a difference. But if you treat them like they're nothing but numbers to get rid of whenever the need arises... — read more

The irony is that Mellon was not happy with a colleague who was “not good enough” for them only to later replace him with a student from an average university with whom they are somehow still “satisfied”. Rarely does anything still make sense here... — read more
