Do we need to be employed when the year end bonus will be get paid in 2026 or if someone leaves early in 2026 can still get the bonus ?what’s the policy ?
We survived another year!
Let's hope the next one brings some positive changes, even if it means finding a new job somewhere else. Actually, now that I think about it, that's the only thing that will bring positive changes. So good luck in finding something new, everybody!
Compliance Failures (since 2019)
Has the board of directors ever considered just firing themselves with the other droves of "assets" to fix the compliance problems? This company has turned it's back on everything it once stood for.
Are they quietly pushing people out?
Lately, it seems like more people are just being let go. They're not calling it a layoff, and there's no severance. Just, quietly firing folks, I guess?
Cigna have so many restrictions.
Hopefully it improves
What is JAR
I have recently joined the MSR team. People talk about using JAR for RTO. Can someone explain what that is?

When a leader asks for feedback after Pulse
And even has HR coming in to get a pulse on things yet gets defensive on a team call right before the holidays today to address the feedback. This leader is very disconnected from his actual team, CANNOT make a decision without consulting SLOD for... — read more
How to minimize your odds of being laid off
Stop volunteering extra work. Just provide what’s asked—no more, no less. Stop trying to do the right thing, even if leadership preach “honesty, integrity and accountability.” Use phrases like: “Happy to support the chosen direction”. Don’t... — read more
Wow. So much silent...
I have never seen this site so much silent. No new topics since long or people have stopped posting. Seems company is doing well. I think yesterday was good employee meeting focused on a lot about members & employees.
Would you rather be forced to five-day RTO or be laid off?
I'd prefer severance.

Best Leaders and why?
Who are the best leaders in what org and why?
Centralization of reporting, data, and more all under ECIO
Enterprise wide. Some got notices, others finding out their new org and boss.
Why was Building D added in Plano?
Seems weird that with people getting laid off, they open up a brand new facility with hardly anyone there. Mostly Fraud and AML from what I've heard

Another leader who flopped
Thoughts on this comment from an AVP : team members who are earning higher salary should have more on their plates. (Exact same titles)
Fact or Fiction
Some leaders make claims that they know who posts on the site and can track it (even if not at work) who can confirm if they are just using it as a scare tactic?
Explain how MM is the right one…

Nice Christmas gift USAA!

Praying to be laid off
USAA went from being a decent to a horrible place to work in the last few years. I'm ready to move on, and it'd be even better if they paid me to do so.
If USAA is wrecking your mental health, leave
Nobody deserves to feel miserable every day. Go find somewhere that treats you like a person, not a robot.
Who decides on layoffs?
With the number of layoffs since 2022, does anyone know how or who selects the people or areas that get hit? Is it HR? Earlier this year when a girl on my team was notified, our ED said she didn’t know until that morning and my director said he... — read more
