Client service center is a dump
Basically a glorified call center.
Anybody not brainwashed by the whole collaboration mantra can see that it’s a terrible work environment just like 1 mellon.
And the clown posting how great it is doesn’t even work here
Don’t make things up. The CSC is a very well designed facility and all of the bathroom comments only means that someone has issues.
@4cnq - Yeah right - you'd better hope that there's not a big line for the ONE bathroom per gender per floor when your morning coffee consumption hits. That building is poorly designed for the current hoteling of staff.
The Ross Street Client Service Center is an ideally designed facility for the entire Pittsburgh footprint. By far the best designed facility we have. They really got that one right.
The future looks bright because we’re reducing our people costs by hiring lower cost resources in Pune and Poland that are absolutely as good as U.S. employees. We aren’t outsourcing… we’re hiring around the world and the bulk of our hires are every bit employees as you are. Drop the racism and you might learn a few things.
I notice that nobody whines about the caucasians working for us in the U.K because they look like you.
Mellon never needed nor wanted OBNYM. Dravo was building it as their new Headquarters in 1982 and went belly up when the rust belt collapsed. Mellon Bank held the loans and wound up with the building. Over 90% of it was rented out. The Client Service Center is ideal for the total Pittsburgh footprint.
The Ross Street mini building has people hotelling and no assigned seats. Yuck.
It may be "old news" but it is not good news. Between this, the rebranding, the layoffs, the closures and especially all the outsourcing to Pune and Poland, the future does not look bright at "BNY."
