Thread regarding Bank of New York Mellon Corp. layoffs

BNYM returns to office... Can I FINALLY get my stuff from a year ago?!?!

I've filled out every survey/request/notification over the past ~year since I left... stating that "yes, I have personal items I need back"

Anyone hear anything on this or have any insight?

I have about $500 of things I paid for myself....mainly a chair and Bluetooth headset... That I would like to get back!

“A couple hundred dollars” of Apple stuff in a desk drawer is now $400 genius.

How insulting.

I get principles, but questioning the holding of grudge against a company that has none.

For me it’s the principle of the thing. If I came back from lunch and some of my sh*t was gone, I’d lecture myself to be a little more careful. But to think that the facilities people whom were tasked to gather and catalog possessions ripped mine off during remote work arrangements really seems like betrayal.

I went in to the office to collect my things while I was still job hunting to prevent just this situation.

I'm the antithesis of a "good soldier" these days, but to complain about a couple hundred dollars (max) of 2+ year old electronics?!? SMH

Send a scathing email to your former manager. Call the HR people over and over and over. At this point maybe you can file an insurance claim, it's SO wrong!

They certainly scarfed up my stuff for their own use. Really ticked me off.

You are likely not getting that stuff back. People jumped on that stuff immediately.

Totally agree. Why send out surveys and questionnaires asking if you aren’t going to do anything. Very frustrating but not surprising. place is a cancer

I took all my personal stuff home months before I got laid off.

I gave up after two years. I did have $150 to $200 of electronics and prescriptions.. I know that people say that everyone was notified to come and get them but I wasn’t and all of my calls were ignored.

I’ve moved on but I bring in nothing personal now.

Shoot... Are you sure that's not a company mug and fork? Haha. Milk I think you might owe them to dispose of that biochemical waste
