Thread regarding Bank of New York Mellon Corp. layoffs

I stayed here too long

I can't be mad at BNY Mellon for making such a bad decision, it's my own fault. I believed in many false promises over the years. My former colleagues who left this place made fantastic careers at their new companies. Do you too sometimes wonder how much more successful your career could have been if you had left here at the right time?

I can't say the raises have been great, but I have learned a lot here. If they get rid of me, at least I have the skills to look for another position. If it wasn't for the interesting work and the great team of people I work with, I would have been gone by now.

I have actually worked somewhere worse than BNY. It was a toxic culture, and I didn't even realize how much it affected me until I left. If I ever felt like that here at BNY, I would start looking immediately.

It’s not too late! I was here for 11 years before bailing. It was shocking how much I was underpaid once I accepted a job elsewhere but if you learned some things and made good connections, it’s not so bad. I thank my bad management for giving me the signs that I can do better elsewhere
