Thread regarding Truist Bank layoffs

HR is full of predators

The sc-m of the earth work for this bank. HR is full of predators that actively help retaliate against employees for reporting abuse. Not enough horrible things can be said about HR and the vile people that work there.

"I would lawyer up. I hear suntruist settles pretty quickly once an attorney is involved."

If you lawyer up then you will be terminatated.

I've been lucky enough not to really deal with HR - which is a made up job and often times are the worst people with power tripping issues, just from what I hear from other teammates and across several companies.

But I so t think they'd want to deal with me when I have the handbook ready.

If I were you, definitely report the abuse to whoever you need to. Act accordingly and protect yourself as it seems like our HR are self interested a--holes.

@qx+1jtzk5t4y, It is just more of the same. The question is, Why would they need too?

Yep. Also, I bet 40% or more of terminations use corporate security officers to threaten outgoing employees. Great way to treat employees who have given their all for the company?

I've been here a long time and have yet to have a positive experience when asking HR for help. They can't seem to answer the most fundamental questions about any of our benefits or payroll. When it comes to Truist, you are absolutely on your own. They are not going to help in any meaningful way. First it takes DAYS to even get a reply, then the reply is the most generic unhelpful thing possible, and when you ask for clarification they punt to the third party. Question about health insurance? Call Aetna. Question about payroll taxes? Call the IRS or read their site. Question about days off? Talk to your manager (who was the one who said to contact HR). They are 100% useless to the average teammate.

My personal opinion of Truist HR at this point is simple. HR is the group directly charged with executing the executive team’s personnel policies. As a result, a number of HR employees (as well as those in other departments) left Truist over their misgivings of how employees were treated.

Those that remain in HR now are a self-selected group. Maybe they justify their directives for a paycheck, or simply agree with executive management and see the rank and file as more or less disposable. In the end it really doesn’t matter. My belief is that is who you are dealing with now.

I am sorry you were abused. The anonymous tip line is your only hope. It is documented and can be obtained by lawyers in a lawsuit from a third party. It is much harder to cover up. Write generically so they cannot figure out who wrote it. I hope you find yourself in a better situation.

Managing director here, I can attest this is true. The corporate minions do as they are told by leadership and if not, they will slowly find themselves elsewhere. It’s shameful especially when leaders pick and choose which partners they want on the case depending on the situation. Do you want leniency in the situation or do you want to bury someone, pick your team working the issue according to your desired end result. You are at a misfortune 500 company, the misfortune is yours if you work here below c-suite.

How awful to say this about our highly decorated Chief Teammate Officer and her group of DEI and pronoun announcers. You should be ashamed.
