No work-life balance
This wasn’t always an issue, but it’s become a real struggle lately. People keep finding better jobs and leaving, which means the rest of us on the team are stuck taking on their work. For some reason, they’re not backfilling any of those positions... — read more

Could this meeting be telling us to RTO 5 days a week? Or just the Org changes updates?
LR&C Layoffs?
Legal, risk and compliance planning more layoffs? Seems odd to accelerate self evals relative to enterprise deadline, especially with rumors of mandated budget cuts from the top.
Venting about M&C org
Micky's Team Update email Why even try? The only people who get ahead in this org are cronies who mismanage their teams. But they impress Micky.
More layoffs coming?
I’ve heard suspicions of more layoffs coming before the end of the year, but nothing factual. Has anyone heard otherwise?
EverBank turnaround story (now that TIAA is out the way)
It has been more than a year since we sold the Bank. One thing I found odd about this transaction is that the sale amount was never disclosed for this transaction. One would assume that because we seemed so desperate to end the relationship that we... — read more
We have a reason to be angry
For years the company told us how much they needed us. The company told us how much they valued us and couldn’t get by without their people. The company told us that we were the difference makers and they couldn’t do it without us. When they had to... — read more
How did 2 years to close Denver become 6 months?

Transition
Now slowly we are realizing , this partnership is not good for us. Many of us losing the license, downgrading our band level. When you will be redeployed it's not just re-skilling, you would interviewed again Accenture internal team as new Clients.
Same Ole, Same Ole
Barely struggled through today's "Ask the EC" call. Lots of canned answers, devoid of any real substance, addressing questions that I'm sure were hand selected specifically to avoid any semblance of controversy. Although in the current toxic... — read more

Take a closer look at the new performance scale. There are now two “underperforming” categories, but only one over-performing category. The “Leading” category is now the average. Don’t be fooled by the naming-scheme for the second category... — read more
The CAO must resign or be fired
After seeing the indictments against P Diddy going back 15 years, the CAO must resign or be terminated. Given the depth and breadth of what’s in the indictments, it is impossible for me to believe that he didn’t have at least some knowledge of what... — read more
How we were selected for selling to Accenture? What's strategy?
Although it doesn't change the fact that we have been thrown under the bus, out of curiosity, Can anyone shed light on the criteria and rationale behind our selection for Accenture?
TIAA Times: TIAA’s inclusion in TIME’s list of World’s Best Companies for 2024. BIGGEST JOKE of 2024!!!
Seriously?? Best places? Maybe under Roger. Not now. This must be another made up prize or award like our Temu of CEOs, keeps getting. Let’s close down Denver, an IMPORTANT hub, risk all our talent there. And also let’s get rid of 1500e employees... — read more

As per the townhall, if you are in TIAA 9 Band you will be mapped to Accenture 8 band that means Associate Manager and if you are TIAA 8 band you will mapped to Accenture 9 band that means consultant. I am not sure how many of you know, as per our... — read more
TIAA veteran here

Just a reminder

Jesus take the wheel
I just wrapped up my FOURTH call of the day. The same BS over and over. By the last call SD looked like he wasn’t even buying it anymore. Or maybe he was just annoyed that there were 6 people in the room. 4 of them were speakers.
Not me applying for other jobs during these meetings...
