New 401k match

How does it feel to see the first one hit the account? Between this and the new tax for paid leave in MN we are making less than last year as they tighten the sc--ws and ask for more from us. Time for a new job.


Check your 401k holdings...

I missed the communication that all my well-performing mutual funds would be mapped to a couple of ETFs, a target date fund and a generic bond fund. My well diversified portfolio that's averaged 12% annually, wiped clean by the geniuses running this ship like it's the Titanic. No more individual fund choices unless you go with the self directed brokerage account option, which I will be doing.

Nearly $500k between me and my spouse completely trashed by the geniuses on the 10th floor.


Stock

All in all we can’t complain too much. The stock is rocking and if you held the matches over the past few years in your 401k you are doing ok!


401k going down

Asked my manager as a follow op with the 401k going down and what other total compensation costs there are projected to be in 2026. She was surprised that barely any people were asking about that, granted the area I work in is basically all women of the older demographic. Do a lot of the people just not care with all these cut’s happening?


Recommendations for wealth management since leaving

I know this is not the best place to get good feedback, however I am finding it difficult to get "honest" input anywhere. For those that have left, or are still with the company , any recommendations on a company (The Retirement Group, Quotient Wealth, Fidelity, or others) that can help to navigate and manage pension, 401K, etc? I am not savvy in this area and would like some help until I am confident to do it on my own or keep it longer term with support. I think a fiduciary is important. Please just helpful comments and maybe that is asking too much on this site. Thank you.


It’s time for transparency

Following up on the email from yesterday regarding the 401k and today's town hall, I need to address the ongoing issues we're facing. It’s unacceptable that we are constantly being pressured to violate labor laws by working through lunch. PTO has essentially been eliminated, and now we have to seek permission from Workforce just to take time off.

Additionally, being asked to handle two chats at the same pay after the recent pay cuts is beyond unreasonable. We deserve clarity on what management truly expects from us. Why is there a lack of communication regarding the reasons behind these changes? Are the whistleblower TikTok videos the cause of this? It’s time for transparency and respect for the workforce.

Well said, @2m0+1katwry9c.


Something feels off across the company lately

After the merit inconsistencies last year, some groups losing bonuses, and now the 401k match being reduced, it feels like employees keep taking the hits. And during the town halls, the leadership messaging doesn’t seem to land anymore. There’s a big disconnect between what’s being said at the top and what people are actually feeling day to day. A lot of us don’t feel understood or valued. Morale feels low, people are tired, and many feel disconnected from the mission.

Good point, @af+1kc2cc38k.


Question, IF Robin completely destroys BNY…..

If Robin and his fellow board of ejector directors ruin BNY and run it into the ground, are pensions guaranteed and safe to those who were lucky enough to earn them? What about any medical benefits, 401K or money we paid into? Obviously BNY stock could bottom out but I would think pensions and benefits earned should be safe under the law?

Beginning to think it’s not a question if Robin could do this, but, when?


The Enshitification Will Continue

They aren't going to let up.

Let the decreasing 401k match be a clue as to how RRP and Merit funding will be this year.

By decreasing the 401k match by 1%, they on average TOOK $1,000 dollars from a UHG employee making contributions. Compound that $1,000 over ten years and you're at $15,000 that the company took from you. Now do that every single year. They will keep bending us over and you're a su---r if keep giving this company anything more than 10% of your effort because they sure as heck aren't giving you anything


DXC Employers Pension Contributions in the UK

For those that are aware, from January DXC's "employer's" pension contributions will no longer be paid forusing our compensation packages. Instead DXC will pay them directly. Previously these contributions have been paid for out of our Flex funds which I have always thought as wrong. Its "Employers contributions" after all. "Employee's" contributions will remain to be charged to our Flex fund.

I'm glad that this appears to be rectified but its got me thinking that we've been unfairly charged by DXC for these contributions and this could add up to quite a significant amount.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? It's a little bizaare for DXC to suddenly change their contributions. I would like to know what has driven this change.


Date to work through to get all of the bonuses/pension credit/401k match

Nothing new, but I am tired of dealing with this failing company, the layoffs of good employees, etc... so I'm looking for a new job at a growing company. I just want to make sure that I receive my LTI, deferred comp, pension credit, and 401k credit. Will working through 12/31 suffice or is it 2/28/26? Thanks!


Severance Package was Amazing

Been with the company almost 20 years and this is like hitting the lottery. My 401k is already enough to fund an early retirement, but the severance package was amazing! I'm not complaining! Plus we are getting full payout of vacation and STI.

I might look for another job, one that isn't stressful, or just call it quits after this.
