Thread regarding Fidelity Investments layoffs

This culture has gone from best to toxic

Been part of the green eco system for over 8 years but this is the first time in my tenure I can say Fidelity work culture, ethics and associate satisfaction is going down the drain.

Managers are making associates "compete" resulting in instances of everyone fighting to be "visible" within the team, creating animosity between team members, favoring their own pets.

I am not in the same region as my manager so I am one of the lucky ones to feel the heat, after being back to exceptional performer, I'm facing sudden hostility, goal / KPI which makes absolutely zero sense and on top of that feeling burnt out with no appreciation at all.

I am wondering if any other BU's facing similar issue?

I am level 7 Wealth associate (tech lead)

If you have a manager who's name rhymes with king or queen of snakes, you're doomed.

They play favorites, favor their own kind (including ones in same region)

They're wired differently and have old school mentality, have trouble trusting people outside of their "circle" or if you're new.

Until such pricks are gone, we will continue to see posts like these

Sounds like your manager is favoring those good for nothing eager beavers who likes talking over you, making sure they have their mark on everything.

Stay calm, but making sure your head is on your shoulder.

Don't let this show them it's breaking you.
