It might seem counter-intuitive, but if you are unhappy with things, its considerably more effective to not do the survey than it is to do the survey and respond negatively. Teammate "engagement" is the number 1 stat they care about most, if not... — read more
Why aren’t we asked to give a performance review of our managers/supervisors?
Instead of the bullsh-t teammate survey that they do nothing with, just let everyone give their purposeful leader a performance review.
RTO Milage limit 30 or 50?
Hello. I've seen several posts about milage being a deciding factor for RTO verses WFH? folks in my office was told it was 50 miles limit but others on this site say 30 miles? I'm required to RTO even tho I'm well over 30. Can can someone confirm?... — read more
disgusting bank
Better name for Truist and the exec mgmt team?
This place is a reoccurring nightmare
A sick joke. Stock market getting hammered and recession fears, bill and co. will justify more layoffs and expense cutting while they pad their pockets with bigger bonuses and incentives such as stock repurchases. Admirable executives voluntarily... — read more

Volunteer for Layoff
How can we volunteer to be RIFed? Speak with our manager or Human Resources? Anyone know?
Thoughts on Bill's original intentions?
We were told that we had to merge and to get tech upgraded, or we would die. The "disrupt or die" idea. Do you think Rogers ever intended to pursue that, or was he going along with it just to get the deal done.
Don't expect anything good to happen to Truist
Get out while you can. Don't allow yourself to be stuck on a sinking ship a day longer than you have to. Maybe if enough of us leave the leadership will finally realize how badly they messed up and actually attempt to fix the situation, because the... — read more
4 days RTO - unequal requirements between teammates
Anyone required to come back into the office but other team members on the team who also live in the state (and relatively close the office) are not required. Any reason why some people are marked office centric and others are remote even within a... — read more
This place is much worse than I could have, or did, imagine
I was VSRP qualified when they offered it. I didn't take it. "How bad can it be?" I thought. If I had only known just how bad it would get, I would have accepted and never looked back. I'm hanging it up this year. I fared better from the strictly... — read more
Sometimes I think being surgeon is less stressful than this work
I’ve been here for quite a while, and this job is definitely taking a toll. I want more of my life, more time for myself, and definitely a healthier job. I can’t remember when was the last time any of the colleagues I came into contact with were... — read more
Tracy Kerrins to lead Tech
Anyone else hear that Kerrins is leaving Wells and will be new CIO at Truist?
Early Retirement Package
What are the chances Truist will offer another round of early retirement packages to all teammates? Would be an easy way to quickly reduce headcount since many who have been here for a long time are ready to leave.
What now??? 8am CT&O org update
As if there hasn’t already been enough disruptive change announced in CT&O, we now have an 8:00am CT&O Organizational Update call. Anyone have any clue what this one is about?

Move On
This post is not as the title appears. I read the comments above and understand the anger as well as the panic in our teamates voices. These people are just voicing whats inside them, as they're not allowed too without fear of losing their jobs. So... — read more
People are unreal. They truly want to suffer more exploitation for peanuts?

Former SunTrust management is ruining Truist
I work in Truist IT with prior years of experience in IT at BB&T. SunTrust IT was in shambles prior to the merger primarily because of management decisions to skimp on hard and soft resources. Heritage ST had outsourced the vast majority of their... — read more
Arrogance or ignorance?
I am not sure if it is blatant arrogance or ignorance but has anyone else noticed the nice new cars the executives are parking in the parking deck? Seems to be saying “we know we have cut off the livelihood of thousands of families but we do not... — read more
Whistle Blowers in the Shadows
We have had many meetings in senior leadership and there’s talk that they have a ton of successful whistle blowers throughout the organization and they want us to figure out who they are for them. Rather that sort out the problems in these truthful... — read more

Trash Truist on Glassdoor
Everyone should be writing negative reviews about working at Truist (they’re anonymous). Hopefully top talent will go to other organizations and this will hurt Truist long term
RTO? RIF? Try blackout drunk
All this RTO. All this RIF. Just pick up the bottle and go to town. Tell them what you really think.
Decided to look for another job
I’m desperate. I just can’t stand this joke of a workplace anymore. One would maybe put up with all the bad - bad teammates, bad management, bad atmosphere - if there was something to strive for. But there’s nothing. You just get unceremoniously... — read more
Side Hustles, Hobbies, Work/Life Balance
I don’t know if this post is necessarily giving advice or asking advice. What are you all doing outside of work to maintain sanity, make ends meet, or put a little cash away? We all need something, right?
Congrats to Sr Mgmt stock plows through a 44 handle
It seems like she wants to rip $1 for every hBBTer that gets riffed or shuffles to the local 15 branch community bank.
Teammates are NOT on offense Bill.
We’re not playing offense. We’re dying and are trying to leave. We are defending ourselves. Why did you lie when you’re out of touch with the little people?
I hate being put in this position
I really didn't want to or feel like interviewing around again but Truist has put me in a position where I feel like I have no choice. Nothing I was promised when I got this job two years ago materialized. I was so happy at the time. It didn't even... — read more
Quit quit quit!
Resign from your jobs at Truist. Do not put a notice in. There are better companies out there with better pay and benefits. This place is a joke. Worst company I’ve ever worked at.
Training your replacement
Folks, if you're being asked to participate in KT for accenture or cisco they are basically forcing you to train your replacement. Sounds like a great time to utilize some sick time when these meetings from accenture pop up. They are the enemy, they... — read more
Just wait - anonymous employee surveys coming
In a serious tone, Bill announced that employee surveys would be distributed by the end of July. He claims this initiative is aimed at making Truist a great place to work. It’s hard not to laugh at this. Executive Team, is it really necessary to... — read more
This is the worst workplace ever
I have been moving through banks, always trying not to get stuck in one for too long. I don’t know if it’s my particular team and my mgmt here, so it’s a subjective experience, or the culture of this bank is this bad, but I’ve never dreaded coming to... — read more
No one can say truthfully this is a good place to work
