I hate to break the news to you all but this new CEO is not favorable towards remote employees. He has not hidden the fact of pushing everyone into an office, and it makes perfect sense for two main reasons.
- Frankenstein did pick him, so you know how obsessed he is with this industrial age mentality
- He's traditional banking guy, not a forward-thinking tech evangelist. You can probably find resources where he comments on the topic.
This is my first and final post, but I wanted to warn my orange bro/sis colleagues. I am on my way out, I was one of the 2% remote in my group, there are very few of us left.
[FWIW - I do know someone personal that is ex-PNC executive, and they confirmed new guy is on board with the asinine no-remote policy. But think about it, there's 99 other reasons to leave FISV, it's been gutted and destroyed from it's former self. F and his spying illegal cronies did us in good. ]
F - "Hey board, I have a great idea, let's close the office where OpenSolutions was headquartered, then fire all those nagging DNA SMEs , b/c you know, that's are only product that makes money; we'll just hire college grads and people offshore to fill the gap, what could go wrong ? p.s. and we'll tell everyone we did it for the clients (LOL)"
