#morale

Kel B just sent out a message saying that we will achieve client success by using AI. People are getting fired left and right, morale is terrible, FT call center is getting closed and all they can say is AI. This is beyond stupid. She schedules her meetings almost every month and it's all about AI, that's the best you can do??

I had to vent I am finished.

Over the past several years, it’s become clear that my team has been operating under the wrong organizational structure. As a result, many of the processes we support have been sustained only through workarounds created by clinics and patients themselves. It’s difficult to see this department remaining viable in the long term if things continue in their current direction.

Leadership has played a significant role in the decline of the team. The current manager has not provided meaningful support or advocacy, and decisions often feel disconnected from the needs of the staff. The supervisory team seems more focused on protecting leadership than addressing ongoing issues, which has created a sense of frustration and confusion.

I genuinely miss my previous supervisor, who provided positivity and encouragement her departure highlighted just how stressful the environment has become. Since then, the culture has shifted dramatically, and the workplace has grown increasingly difficult to navigate. After more than seven years here, I’m actively searching for a new opportunity. The environment has become too toxic to remain in, especially after recent leadership changes. I wish the best to anyone else who is also looking for a fresh start.

This company feels like a team stuck with bad coaches who refuse to adapt, and the scoreboard proves it. You don’t win by wearing out your players. You win by putting them in a position to succeed.

Employees aren’t asking for less accountability. They’re asking for flexibility, which most of the market already offers. If five day RTO actually drove performance, we would see it in execution, morale, retention, and the stock. We don’t. We see burnout, attrition, and continued underperformance.

In sports, when coaches pile up losing seasons, blow money on bad deals, and lose the locker room, they don’t get more time to tighten discipline. They get fired. And we already have a losing record. Years of bad acquisitions, billions written off, talent walking, and a stock that can’t keep pace with the league.

Good coaches listen to feedback and adjust. Bad coaches double down, blame the players, and keep losing. Flexibility is the fix. Rigid RTO is the mistake. Until leadership accepts that, this team isn’t turning the season around.

It went from being a top place to work to feeling like they're actively trying to stress us out. The change over the last few years has been unbelievable.

It’s clear that the amount of greed here is at the top of the list. This company will fold within a few years.

Will MW be man enough to answer tough questions from his completely demoralized and angry work force? We all know he's not amd will just take soft ball questions and won't speak about how bad morale is!

The majority of the team is gone, and only a few people remain. I genuinely do not know whether being laid off or being left behind is the worse outcome.

Captain Mainwaring ordered his beleaguered troops to work harder to get yet another 0% pay rise. Nice work DA, that was a masterclass in how to p1ss off your staff even more. Maybe this clown should look in the mirror and realise he is the problem? All he’s overseen is contract run-offs and now they are drying up, nothing is coming in. Funny that but it’s all the poor employees fault for not working hard enough. No Captain, it’s your set up, your cronies and your skills at trying to run the company as a military set up that’s failing. It’s not hard, look after your staff and the rest will look after itself. We’re not 16 year old squaddies standing in line taking your orders. Dismissed…

Not layoff related but are any other credentialing teams feeling overworked and exhausted? Most of the onboarding teams are about to be pulled from files to train new WRS people without any appreciation or additional pay. Wouldn't be surprised if we see half the company leave within the next few months.

When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn't become a king; the palace becomes a circus.

Things have gone downhill ever since he started at Edward Jones.

Bro stop pls.. you are literally the reason why the american dream is dead

Another. New. Low.

Too many of you avoid it and think we are being tracked. For god's sake reply to it and DESTROY any question that talks about Managing Committee, Senior Leadership, Leadership, etc.

Yes I know they won't do anything but if you don't share you voice, they will assume the rosey picture they get from all the boot lickers is the majority and those of us who hate the leadership are a small minority.

I am tired of her saying things like "according to the surveys, morale is pretty high". Take that lame a-s excuse from her.

A lot of what I thought would happen is starting to happen right now. I’m not here anymore but figured I’d see as to is anything was changing and it turns out that the RTM position was tested in a few markets and now it’s rolling out in many areas probably most. Makes me even more glad I got out.

I was always saying to myself that my reasoning why it hadn’t yet been implemented in our area was that it would happen under the circumstances that enough reps and/or RMS’ would leave that they would just give everyone left one giant territory and that the person will have the duties of a sales rep while doing the duties like scheduling and everything else a typical manager would do. But since none of the people who said they would leave left it would be a matter of when this rolls out nationwide,

Can’t see why they have to make things worse than mission 1. With the amount of people who take packages im willing to bet that anyone who isn’t looking to leave sales rep RMS or DM will most likely have a job. With the amount who will likely leave they will likely make the territories for these people even bigger which would have to expand the role of the FTOWs.

Problem is they don’t have the manpower from FTOW. Not enough people are interested in it. Even from the outside world they can’t get anyone to work for them. Can’t blame them I was overworked and treated like such cr-p towards the end. Had I not gotten out this is what I’d be dealing with. Even worse being pushed harder while still having the same absymal pay.

The people who run this company do not know what to do! Every directive we get from the top makes no sense and makes all of our jobs harder! This business is built on collecting free money from tax payers and the Idots still cant make it work!

Perhaps addressing the rumors by confirming or discounting them would allay fears.

Welcome to corporate America. They call it ‘restructuring’ when profits are protected and people are discarded.

The strategy, who they chose to lay off, demotions...unless the goal is to ki-l morale and destroy the company. Then, things make perfect sense.

Our place stack ranks for reviews and it's terrible for morale. What about in office hours? When you rto do they mandate hours? 8 min? What about activity and keystroke reports? The salary is comparable but rto five days is a red flag. I can't ask the recruiter some of these things but they matter for quality of life.

Its been interesting to see the small and not-so-small ways that people have been tuning out since Charlie Scharf took the helm and the never-ending march of layoffs started. From small shifts in attitude and lowered enthusiasm, to slow walking projects, all the way up to people drawing hard boundaries on their time, and what their teams have the resources to deliver. I can't remember the last time I talked to someone who was enthusiastic about being here, or actively trying to make things better.

At this point it’s been 1 week since rest of VSPs left. Company is complete disarray. Comments on CF social media posts show members frustration and lack of any response from CF. How has this mess not made it to at a minimum WBAL? CF leaders have sc--wed the employees and the downstream is a place members lack any confidence in. If bonuses go away, only offshore support will exist, and we all know they care about the income not the fix. Any word when reviews come out or what bonuses are looking like?

Was told it would open yesterday (which was questionable since it was a holiday), wasn’t there. Checked again today and still not there.

Just a terrible way this company is handling everything.

So there is no update on comp.

Now we have LED lighting going in. It's way too bright. Bring a ball cap.

Are you all told the same?

In store sales, low staffing levels, customer service scores/complaints , merchandising standards, deferred store maintenance, are not a priority?

What is happening? Why are in store sales not a major focus? Why are associates, key holders, leads, and some floor managers kept out of the loop? What’s really going on here?

I’m seeking ways to make the evening feel like it’s dragging on endlessly.

I’ve been waiting a very long time for this. Deliverance may have finally arrived. Time to start a new life. Good luck to same!

They keep taking and taking and never giving anything back. We've lost so much in the past several years, from relative job security to benefits to normal culture and so much more. So is there anything left that's keeping you here outside of the cr-ppy job market?

What's even the strategy anymore? We keep losing customers and value, but all we hear are excuses. The big transformational plan they promised has been a total failure. Instead of fixing the core issues, they just cut more people and shuffle org charts. It makes you wonder if anyone at the top has a clue how to stop the slide or if they even care.

They could completely change the vibe around here if they just handled layoffs differently. What if they actually treated people leaving with some respect, offered a good severance package, and even asked for volunteers first? It wouldn't fix everything, but it would stop morale from cratering every single time.

I was reading this Wharton article about how small slights from employers cause a loss of productivity. link to article: https://penntoday.upenn.edu/news/penn-wharton-when-employees-feel-slighted-they-work-less

PNC better get ready for this on a grand scale. Obviously, RTO increases costs for employees (parking, gas, additional child care, loss of time because of the commute, the list goes on). But we’ve also lost our personal day out of nowhere, HSA wellness contributions have gone down significantly, and rumor has it that bonuses will leave a lot to be desired. All in one year. This company is ran by CLOWNS. I encourage everyone to use every second of every occasional absense day in 2026. Don’t work a minute past 5pm. Don’t even think about logging in on the weekend. They take, take, take and only give back to the C Suite. Don’t give them anything more than the bare minimum, because PNC sure isn’t going to give you anything.

What is happening to the UK business. Has everyone given up. Sales targets missed month after month and no one cares. Can't get a project done for love nor money. The strangest place. Even the leadership and upper management don't care.... is there any hope????

one google search of forced distribution and differentiated performance gives you thousands of articles about why it doesn’t work and why it’s terrible for morale and collaboration. yet now we’re forcing people to be ranked and PIPed just to fill a quota. its nonsensical. why am i coming into the office four days a week to “collaborate” with my peers and help them outshine me? why would i bother trying to meet my goals when a percentage of my team has to be ranked low just because it’s required? if you want to let people go just let them go. why do they put us through these humiliation rituals?

I got partially meets expectations at year end. I have just got £4.5k in bonus. This company is an absolute joke even to the well treated analysts but it is hard to find reasons to leave when analysts can expect these bonuses for sub par work. The atmopshere in office is tense as we can sense the hatred as the rumours spread. Other analysts have reported managers and supervisors being overly critical or leaving them out of work out of spite. Worst of all, most analysts considering leaving after the 2 year program.

It boggles the mind how bad the optics are of a company posting a “great” results year for 2025, then immediately laying off hundreds of people, to then spending at least $1M on glad-handing at Davos this week with their team of sycophants.

It’s such poor taste to do this, but it’s absolutely the goal. Let’s go and try to be relevant with those who are. Be seen with leaders and doers we want to be peers with. Meanwhile, we limp along not investing in new products until we can sell someone on the idea to pay for it.

Everything has gotten more dysfunctional and dystopian, meanwhile we are constantly gaslighted about culture and empathy.

When senior management talk, it often feels like they’re describing a completely different company.

I’m trying to work out whether I’m just in one of the worst-run accounts, and many of the frustrations raised here are actually coming from the same few places. Or whether this is a more general, across-the-board issue.

Sometimes the advice is simply “leave”, so I wonder if that comes from people in well-run accounts who genuinely can’t see or relate to the problems others are dealing with.

Out of interest:
• Which account do you predominantly work on?
• On a scale of 1–10 (where 1 is the worst place you’ve ever worked and 10 is the best), how would you rate it?

Was RIF’d in August, didn’t really get to say goodbye to anyone, and I genuinely liked everyone on my team. RIF’s and layoffs su-ked, but y’all didn’t.

And to the person that will inevitably comment about leaving NCR “x amount of years ago and never being better”, I’m glad for you, friend, truly.

Intel of old is gone, that much is clear
Culture - buried
Employee morale - decimated
GPTW - nothing but a fond memory

What comes next will be very telling. Yes, we are hitting product releases on time with good reviews - most of which were well in process before LBT took over. But what comes next?

I suspect in 3-5 years, you will see Intel will not be a destination job - it will be a 3rd option job. A place you go until you find something better. Intel on you resume will be worthless - just another gig.

On the engineering side, the environment will erode to where 60-80 hr workweeks are expected with no benefit - no bonuses, no parties, no break to enjoy the accomplishments. This will be come the new norm. On the MFG side, it will become a sweat shop. Lowest bidder doing the work - gotta keep those costs in line.

It will turn into a place where folks gain experience then vacate as soon as possible. Turnover will be horrendous and within a generation, the company will only exist to build things for others. No innovation / development.

It is a sad thing to watch.
/Rant

I think I should say this. I had heard good things about PNC and had found a couple positions I wanted to apply for in Technology, but after hearing the CEO‘s decision on a 5 day work week, and how the morale has completely changed, there is no way that I want to work for PNC. I truly believe I’d be miserable every day. I will take my talent and expertise where employees are cared about and respected.
