And the work just keeps piling up. I’m slammed with endless claims and deadlines every single day, working late just to keep up. No one even notices or thanks me. Instead, it’s just more pressure and higher expectations. I’m burnt out and feel like... — read more
ISCO again?
Are we seriously trying to do investments again? We just sold off the business a few years ago. No long term strategic vision here. The board is full of absentee landlords.
High turnover is a sign of a bully company
People don’t quit for fun. They quit because this place bleeds you dry. We lose good people all the time, and leadership couldn’t care less. They just pile more work on the rest of us and act shocked when we burn out too. Rinse. Repeat. Replace. — read more
There is fat to cut here
Some of the senior people are doing the bare minimum but pulling big salaries. If they started trimming from higher above, I wouldn't complain.
Lips are moving
If executives lips are moving one thing is certain- they lying.

What is Up with Fraud Leadership? Extremely rude
Have had the displeasure of working with the Fraud department and there’s a level of ego I’ve never seen. You can tell them they’re wrong, they’ll do paperwork to show that they’re right over every tiny thing. Overpromising, underdelivering... — read more
Management toxicity
The gaslighting here is next level. Last quarter my director praised my initiative, then used that same initiative as justification when I didn't meet some arbitrary metric. HR's response was to tell me to work on my time management. Meanwhile, the... — read more

What positions/roles are there in the new Virginia facility?
And are they hiring over there?
If laid off in July/august, get half of bonus awarded in feb march 2026?
Retirees do, but was not sure on employees impacted in 2nd half of year and given severance packages.
USAA does not care about you. At all.
The company has been attacking it's employees since 2019. The famous line from HR was "we've over invested in our employees," without actually capturing the raw problem of a broken board of directors that Wayne leveraged to buy a few... — read more
Executive Exception Process is …
Leadership claiming that remote workers are still part of the team is questionable. More and more commentary about an “ executive exception process” that no one will touch or take up the chain to get a posting for remote consideration is out there... — read more
The culture at USAA feels like high school
Cliques, gossip, and passive-aggressive behavior from leadership. It’s exhausting navigating such a toxic environment when you’re just trying to do your job.
Anyone know what happened in CO Springs yesterday?
Lockdown alert was sent but no details anywhere I can find on internal or external sources.

What happens to an employee who gets fired from USAA? What type of documentation or paperwork is given? Does the employee continue to get any type of benefits from the place? Was curious to know what the difference is between getting laid off... — read more

Heard security teams laid off in ECIO
This week, anyone can validate?
Another one bites the dust
It's deeply disappointing to see trusted and proven leaders like the CIO of LifeCo being pushed out under Amla's new direction, only to be replaced by her go-to people. In the past life CIO leaders brought much-needed stability, deep institutional... — read more
Rude and inappropriate management
Who the he-l promotes these people?
TER - All Hands On meeting
Who else is having fun with the lip service and iron clad for good ol boys club.
“Home Office” and “Enterprise” - What’s going on ?
A memo just went out to all the USAA executives to stop referring to the San Antonio office as the “Home Office” - call it the “San Antonio Office”. In addition, stop using the term “Enterprise” (use “USAA” or “Our Association” instead). What’s the... — read more
Just an observation
Who else notices that a few AVP or VP post here attempting to make Themselves sound smarter and worthy of their titles. It’s odd. Also for the record changing vpn to align with any city and location while posting is smart and throws everyone off on... — read more
July Reorg?
Anybody know anything about a July reorg in MGO/Marketing? Leadership has signaled big changes for a while now, but is predictably scant on details.
Did USAA scam workers? Any re-course?
Would love to see a class action come out of this the way they lured workers with fake promises and a mostly scam work environment.
June 2 - PTO for all
All non-executive and non-managerial employees should take a PTO day (sick day) at the SAME time. June 2 seems like a good day. Your employment will be cut sooner or later. So why not have a little fun. Who knows. Maybe the execs will learn how... — read more
Serious question, how do some of us volunteer to be part of this layoff round?
Serious question, how do some of us volunteer to be part of this layoff round? We know it’s coming in 2025 and 2026. If they need numbers, there are a few of us willing to take the package in order to protect others who may not have the ability to... — read more

What Ethics complaints have y’all made?
This is part of mine, but I’ll post the full thing if people want— During offboarding, I saw that my same role, with the same responsibilities, reposted but a level down. At the same time, teammates who had long been performing portfolio work but... — read more
I need a new job
Working here feels like running on a treadmill that’s stuck at the slowest setting. The layers of micromanagement make it impossible to take any real initiative, and most decisions get stuck in endless approval loops. The outdated systems and... — read more
