Does anyone have experience or knowledge of others who have retired in the current calelander year and still recieved thier bonus the following year? Documentation says it's the process, but......?


What did the severance, shares, and bonus packages actually look like?

To everyone who served their last day on May 29th, thank you for everything you’ve contributed here..

As the community navigates this transition, many are trying to understand the baseline support the company provided. If you feel comfortable sharing, could you shed some light on the standard severance packages? Specifically:

Salary: Did the company stick to the standard 2 weeks of pay per year of service (up to a 6-month max), or did those with shorter tenures (like 3 years or less) get a flat baseline?

Shares: Did they pay out any shares based on their current vesting value, or did all share vesting completely cut off on May 29th?

Bonus & Benefits: Were annual bonuses pro-rated based on the time you worked this year, and are they subsidizing health insurance (COBRA)?

Wishing you all the absolute best on your next chapters!


IBP adjusted so we can’t all reap the success?

Dell adjusted the FY27 company bonus plan to have a lower waiting on a revenue this year.

Dell knew that the revenue would be much higher this year when contracts were booked in fy26, sales were rewarded. Revenue follows cost/shipping (accounting).

Is this true?

Okay… yes all you directors and i10s may have shares LTI. But most of us i6-i8 have squat :(


Do we get any free banana bonus yet ?

Holly sh-t … 30% bonus bump for TSMC guys. What the f-c k you are doing here ?

Too jealous and really stupid still working at this shitTel

So we fire lots of people, we use ai for everything, and I’m doing 3 times the work I did 2 years ago. Why is vz stock barely moving since..

….mid March. Seriously, Dan be like ‘AI efficiency” and ‘we must tighten our belt and layoff’ and we’re still sh---y. Pay me Danny boy. You made a sh-t deal with the unions but have always paid us. All that moolah you got saved should be coming back to us. Sh-t, even throw the union some type of bonus for bending over on a bad contract.

Also that voice changer stuff is racist as he-l.


Waiting for potential severance or retirement

Is there any advantage to informing HR about retirement plans ahead of time? With the possibility of layoffs and severance packages at Bank, I’m unsure whether I should let HR know that I’m planning to retire in July. I would also be eligible for a half-year bonus since I have 10+ years. Could notifying HR about my retirement plans affect my chances of being included in a layoff or receiving severance?


No IPI Dollar Amount in Severance Letter?

Did anyone else affected by the Intuit layoffs who is IPI eligible get a severance letter that includes the number of weeks of severance and COBRA info, but no specific dollar amount of IPI listed? Some of my colleagues had dollar amounts included (which were of course lower amounts than they typically get), but my letter only generally referenced if you are eligible for IPI it will be paid out with your final paycheck. I think they are going to sc--w me out of my bonus?


Deloitte Audit Division Experiences Staff Reductions

Deloitte recently conducted layoffs within its audit division. These reductions affected employees, including senior managers. The layoffs occurred shortly before annual bonuses were scheduled. Affected individuals reported the process felt impersonal. One senior manager received severance and bonus payout.

Vice Presidents

Can we hire some more vice presidents? The more vice presidents we hire, the more Expand has to pay the worker bees to put up with the extra BS. Then we can get a raise! In reality, we challenge the vice presidents to justify their salaries and bonuses to the stock holders. We know they are worthless from the inside view of the company. Oh, they will claim the worker bees' accomplishments, but we know who really gets the work done around here. And we don't have skeletons on our closet.


How to get a higher WHAT and HOW score?

It seems that now our bonuses are also calculated with the WHAT and HOW scores. My manager created easy goals for a couple of colleagues who are her friends and asked them to copy paste them in the system. But with me, we used AI and my my goals are almost impossible to achieve. I don't think I shall get a good WHAT or HOW score even if I try too hard. And because the success of my goals is dependent on others, I am finding it hard to show that I am working harder than the colleagues with easier goals. Long story short, it feels like the new performance management makes it super easy for managers to give more bonus and salary appraisal to their friends. Is moving into another team my only choice? Are they really planning layoffs by giving bad scores? Some colleague was saying that a PiP means you don't even get severance and they can lay you off anytime. I can't ask my manager yet because she is very politik and cares more about networking than about our work. If the culture is only going to get worse I may even look for a job outside but there aren't many opportunities right now. I am based near Heidelberg in case that matters.


Another Form of Quiet Layoffs

Cutting bonuses drastically by raising metrics incrementally every year, until they're just out of reach. Q1 2026 quarterly bonus dropped $1500 for me compared to other quarters and my performance increased this year. The base isn't the best, so you have to rely on bonuses to make up for it. All that makes people want to do it put in less effort, which I'll be doing.


The Trend is Not Your Friend

Has anyone else noticed that for the past 2 years we have been making LESS money.

It appears that our we-ponized ranking system is definitely paying dividends.

A few more people in the PIP aught to do it. Let’s go ahead and run off our most experienced personnel and outsource overseas.

To the board…..keep up the great work. Y’all all deserve bonuses.

Inflation-adjusted profits (millions USD, in April 2026 dollars):
• Q1 2026 (ended Mar 31): $4,183 → ~$4,220 (minimal adjustment)
• Q4 2025: $6,501 → ~$6,630
• Q3 2025: $7,548 → ~$7,720
• Q2 2025: $7,082 → ~$7,280
• Q1 2025: $7,713 → ~$7,980
• Q4 2024: $7,610 → ~$7,950
• Q3 2024: $8,610 → ~$9,050
• Q2 2024: $9,240 → ~$9,750

When Leadership Stays Silent, This Forum Becomes the Only Truth Source

Posts on this site are personal reactions to what BNY employees are actually living through.

The feedback here is about executive leadership’s silence around McKinsey‑driven cost restructuring, real‑estate closures and consolidations, RTO used as a filtering mechanism, and a culture that’s become increasingly toxic and opaque. People aren’t imagining this; they’re documenting it in real-time.

When raises and bonuses are insignificant, when communication is intentionally vague, and when “efficiency” becomes a euphemism for unannounced layoffs, employees are going to talk — especially when leadership won’t. That’s why this forum looks the way it does. It’s not about traffic or ad revenue. It’s because BNY associates have nowhere else to get honest information about what’s happening behind the curtain.

If leadership communicated transparently, this board wouldn’t have to do the job for them.
