Up or Down? (First Post)

1st post - I’ve checked in here for a while on and off occasionally and my sentiment is largely the same. Full disclosure - I left a while ago.

What if this forum could coordinate our frustrations and impact (even small positive) change? Yeah, I know - doubters, I hear you already and don’t disagree. If the board has not fired him already, chances are slim if not zero.

You know, there are several thousand views to each post on this forum. This means people take time to read what is here and, I want to believe that frustrated or not, it’s because people care. I am sure some are bots and some are random, but I do believe most are not. (Maybe that’s too optimistic?)

RTO silliness - really sad - just the latest example of clueless leadership - I’m sorry (sincerely).

But, what if?

Give your feedback and hit the arrows to the post up or down (like or not). If there are more downs then ups, this is my only post. Maybe this is just a healthy outlet for frustration - if so, OK! (I know it’s needed)

But if this larger group wants to rally, and feels the promise of Truist pre-merger and the actual failure of achievement of potential due to poor leadership cannot be fulfilled, maybe there are a few constructive (non-violent of course) actions that can be pursued. Whether you were hBBT or hST or even new since then, How do you feel? Don’t worry about comments, just hit the arrow up or down. Let’s see how this forum feels about this post.

If you have work friends that you can trust, invite them to check in here from time to time. Whether a real movement and strategies emerge or not who knows but growing the audience matters.

All of the frustration points to one thing -- people can't stand this company.
As someone else pointed out in another thread, they found a new job and have no problem with their required 5-Days/week because they like the work and the company. And I have to say I'm in a similar boat.
I left Truist last year and have absolutely no problem going in my required 4-Days/week because I enjoy the culture and the work is much more meaningful (some weeks I even go in 5 just because I want to).
To OP's point it does feel like this board became an outlet for frustration (which is fine). But if everyone banded together it would be a lot more productive. The hatred for RTO is a symptom of the problem, not the root of the problem.
Cheers and best going forward.

@cp You reveal you personality at work? I don't get paid enough to do that. My work personality is "how few words can I use?"

@ec Think, "Non Reported Income".

Boggles my mind that some members of Executive Leadership are still employed. The BOD are both deaf and d-mb to allow this incompetent group of bafoons to remain employed.

“neutralize your 'linguistic fingerprint.' Just like I did here.” 😂 🤡

Companies have no reason to improve employee satisfaction while the job market is this bad. They'll suddenly remember they care only if hiring becomes a problem in the future.

Just a heads-up: masking your IP and browser data isn't a total shield here. Your unique writing patterns can still give you away. To stay truly anonymous, I recommend running any long-form posts through an AI rewriter to neutralize your 'linguistic fingerprint.' Just like I did here.

TL:DR

Truist still in your head lol

JFC—not even Kelly liked to listen to himself talk that much.

Most left in leadership are soulless minions who do as they are told. There’s nothing left but favoritism and retaliation. Making the workers feel intense conversations around how they lack and make them anxious and uncomfortable. This is the Truist way. There’s people shedding off like a dog in chemotherapy and it never stops. Constantly new people and they still rack their money on the backs of workers. They don’t care if you’re feeling down about RTO, toxicity or sales goals. They are making money and doing what they want. It’s a free for all and morals left long ago. Change can only come if this bank is taken over or if black rock appoints a new EL team. Whoever is running the show is just another face. The company top down needs to be replaced. There’s widespread corruption throughout and there’s no exception. No one is happy. You can tell I know what I’m talking about. Director of our LOB told us all before they retired that this bank will be studied in text books in colleges for what not to do. Welcome to Suntruist.
