In case you missed it, Yahoo finance posted a very interesting article regarding some of BONY's ugly history. It talks about one of the longest most hostile takeovers in American history, the merger of BONY and Irving Trust. That merger allowed the... — read more 

It’s the top honor now in IT. Unsurpassed, unmistakable, unsurpassed (used 2x !!) and remarkable are the superlatives to describe our leader. I’ll cut staff in half !!

The only way management will take it’s employees seriously is for the employees to band together and fight for better conditions. In a show of support for everyone being put thru this c-ap, call in sick 12/16

What’s the latest fake news here? Seems like that’s all we see on this site. No real information etc. lots of moaning and throwing around big numbers

Laysoffs in the thousands .... a joke. Not the first time either. Any credible posts on here? There are been a handful of layoffs globally. Sensationalist site

Was the news about not renewing the lease on the Brooklyn office for next year fake news? Lot of employees left in Brooklyn now that it looks like lay offs aren't actually going to happen. Anybody know whats actually going with 2 Hanson Place?

Google that term and “BNY Mellon” to see how low this company will go to get money. Sticking it to a charitable foundation? Seriously? So much for “corporate social responsibility”. What a bunch of dirtbags.

All, if you got BE do NOT sign off your PMP. Something is pending on this with a group of employees that have got together. DO NOT sign off.

Lay-off moved to January from 2nd December, still, a lot of re-org going.

So with this impending storm in NYC Sunday into Monday...if one slated for the chopper is WFH what happens? Fired via phone? Cut off access etc?

Excellent year. All targets met. Monthly one to ones were all great...... bombshell dropped that im in BE. ..... no real explanation. Emotional and mentally drained, violated and drained. Not in a good place :(

Sound familiar? Layoffs, hiring JPM people - even hired Bill Daley (again)!

If you work hard all year with no issues and all of a sudden you are tolding you are in the 10%...... do you have to sign off your PMP? Options and advice please? Have 3 colleagues in this position.

Thank You!

It means R. I. P.

Is it concrete that you’d get laid off if you got a BE rating last quarter/performance review? Planning ahead for Monday..
