Accuracy 😂
Here so long as teammates complete their jobs consistently, repeatedly, and transparently, accuracy doesn’t matter So as long as everyone repeatedly gets it wrong, it’s okay. That’s why there have been a million teammate replacements, a million... — read more
New AML Officer
With Rick leaving, any insight into how his replacement might make changes? The Financial Crimes group is such a disaster. I bet some of the execs will be out the door shortly.
How does this even happen?

TFC performance
Five year return for TFC is just over 18%. Compare that to JPM at over 202%. I realize we are not exactly comparing apples and apples but at this sort of return for Truist why hasn’t the Board of Directors got rid of Billy Boy. ?

Does anyone have insight into why TM "resigned" so quickly?
Seems fishy that one would resign and the rumor mill has been going crazy that there was some shady things going on (theft, lying, etc.). Usually leadership at that level has more of a transition and sends a fair well note. Just curious if anyone... — read more
