RTO updates are causing a lot of anxiety — especially for FT telecommuters. Signs definitely point to a stricter in-office push. Worth noting: if you have an ADA accommodation (like ADD/ADHD), the in-office FAQ on The Source suggests they’ll... — read more
Enterprise Skills Assessment
I was identified for an Enterprise Skills Assessment. Is this a hint for a future layoff?
What's up with REL and new RTO?
I'm fully remote, as are entire departments and have been since covid. Mid-Level Managers are saying they don't know yet if we will be effected. We are all offering prayers. Does anyone have any insight? 🙏🙏
35 Miles. No Clear Expectations.
How is it that whether the 35 mile rule applies depends on which leader you talk to? Some executives are telling teams that anyone living more than 35 miles from a corporate hub will be considered remote, while others insist there are no mileage... — read more
Wholesale Payments Client Success Team
Client success teammates received an email from Shelley today confirming that return to office 5 days a week applies to us as well. You can understand how taken aback we were considering we only have 2 months to adjust to this new norm. Not sure... — read more
VPN Down, Chaos Up
VPN went out awhile back — word is Charlotte teammates working from home and the “permanent” telecommuters decided to come into the office with their kids in tow (because who needs childcare when you’ve got badge access, right?). Naturally, it... — read more
BRG at Truist?
Anyone have thoughts on whats going on with BRG lately?
Charlotte Hornets Arena
People lose their jobs, benefits cut and processes sent overseas, but we can still be a major sponsor of the new Charlotte Hornets arena. Gotta love it.
Truist replaced years of experience with bargain hires
Costs went down, but so did quality. Now we spend twice as long fixing mistakes that never used to happen. Figure that.
People do realize the 5-day RTO is an attrition tactic, right?
Corporations are learning fast from each other how to sc--w employees over, and get rid of them on the cheap, or better yet, for free. Just watch the RTO conditions keep piling up until enough people quit because they can’t or won’t meet them. They... — read more
No more with from home
Starting 01/05/2026 five days in office required and a push to have less remote staff
RTO Mandate Hits 5 Days/Week in Jan '26: Audit Revolving Door to Spin Even Faster?
Just when you thought the revolving door couldn’t spin any faster, here comes the 5-day RTO mandate starting 1/1/2026. Truist-wide hammer drop, no carve-outs. Grant spilled it to a handful Audit earlier today, claiming a bunch of folks will be... — read more
Moving to 5 days in office
HR buried a story that starting in January 2026 teammates are expected to be in the office five days a week. Not surprising that HR buried that article and gave no warning to people managers.
Truist Golf Championship
Curious about the ROI on this “investment”.
Learn to say no
If you’re burned out, start saying no and stop feeling guilty about it. Managers here depend on us to keep their jobs alive, not the other way around. Half of them won’t even call you out because they’re terrified of confrontation. Keep saying no... — read more
Board MIA
Missing in Action board investors Paging the above…this is comical at this point. Bill’s legacy is already cemented in serial failures. This shows that a CEO should not also be Chairman. No checks and balances. Earnings call should be... — read more
Brace yourselves
Truist stock is getting wrecked, worst it's been since MoE. Q3 numbers are expected to be rough, and we'll see that confirmed tomorrow morning. Looks like another Project STAR is coming soon, and it'll be even bigger than the last one. Truist is... — read more
5 days RTO
To be announced to certain groups on Friday.
Who is the worst CEO in history?
Billy bob or Kelly?
Imagine that
More new executive hires. SunTruist changes leadership in various areas like dirty socks. We are now spending millions to try and get back the wholesale payments and business they three years ago didn’t give a damn about. This circus needs a bigger... — read more
This is different
I’ve been in banking for over a decade and I’ve never seen this many coworkers openly talking about job hunting. Even people I barely know are updating resumes and quietly networking. I swear, the only reason there's not a major exodus is the state... — read more
Monitoring software on laptops
What tools is Truist using to keep an eye on what employees are doing on Truist laptops? Some departments have Sapience, but I've heard there are other tools being utilized. Anyone know what else is being used and which departments are using them?
Truist is in financial trouble!
Stock price tanking. 700+ contractors let go with pretextual reason of "Sapience monitoring showed they were not being productive". There is no plan to back-fill the positions. Real reason they were let go was to simply cut costs! More cost... — read more
Timely advice - If you are let go from Truist
Here’s something most people don’t realize: banks settle 98–99% of wrongful termination lawsuits before they ever reach trial. That’s right, only 1–2% make it to court. Why? Because they know what’s at stake, it's cheaper for them to settle than... — read more
Internal Restructuring
How is nobody talking about this? Should I be applying elsewhere?? "Truist is undergoing internal restructuring. Sources indicate that between 500 and 700 contractors were cut last Friday in Digital and Technology divisions citing "policy concerns"... — read more
Writing is on the wall!
Fifth Third Bank has officially acquired Comerica, marking another significant move in what appears to be a growing trend of regional bank mergers under the current U.S. administration. Industry analysts expect further consolidation as economic... — read more
Are any of the job postings out there even real??
Sure doesn’t seem like it.
Confused
Why is the board so complacent. This leadership team seems to keep fumbling the ball…over and over and over. Purple this and purple that will not impress investors.
Wooten Building Shutting Down?
Rumors are swirling they are shutting down the building on Wooten in Wilson, NC and moving them elsewhere. Is this true? No one is hardly in the building anymore. Either laid off or WFH.
Champion Mindset…
…is a game changer. As with everything, it takes a while to mature. We need to exercise some patience and it will have a purposeful butterfly effect.
Still pushing the Survey
Still getting emails from corporate and my manager about completing the survey. Is it Mandatory? What will be the consequences if I don’t fill it out?
benefits changes
I'm really frustrated to learn that Truist will be cutting its $500 deductible and co-pay medical insurance plans in 2026. From now on, they'll only offer high deductible plans with no co-pay option. It feels like they keep stripping away employee... — read more
Audit
Will audit ever slow down the revolving door of people leaving? Every time you turn around you are explaining a finding to a new auditor that is so clueless you wonder how TAS operates and gets anything done.
Hard work paying off!
Big news! I’ve got a meeting with my manager at 8 a.m. Monday, and I can’t wait! I have a feeling she’s going to tell me my AVP promotion has been approved! All my hard work is finally paying off.
Truist wealth
How does this help us? Good people let go! Can’t get an account open in a week so let’s move the problem over here. I don’t think that will help. It’s all a mess. I think this makes it worse. Upper management doing something to justify their... — read more
Leadership at Truist is a mess
This place feels like it’s stuck in the past. Half the leadership team seems completely unqualified, and most only got their roles through connections or because they cost less. And the result are layoffs, because that's the only thing incompetent... — read more
Have layoffs continued today?
I’m also hearing that it’s not just Mortgage being impacted. Please share any info.
Vpn down
Is Truist being hacked? Any idea why vpn is down across the company? I know we’ve had a lot of turnover in our tech areas. Did we layoff the wrong people?
Buzz saw moving through mortgage today and tomorrow
Good luck everybody. I was thinking would hit if at all next month, but it’s here.
Reporting AI use
Is it against the code of conduct for an employee to input Truist proprietary information into an AI platform like ChatGPT? To my knowledge, the only AI tool currently authorized at Truist is CoPilot, and it’s being tested by a limited group of... — read more
