Topics regarding layoffs at U.S. Bank

The tone deafness of an offshore CEO

The tone deafness of an offshore CEO, GK. All I remember from the recent all hands call with GK and the board were: *GK calling WFH non-sense *GK calling someone's question selfish *GK telling employees to look for employment somewhere else

So, how do we move on?

The silence says a lot. One would think that after almost 2 weeks of buzzing about this, GK would have released some sort of message to smooth things over. There are almost 30k people who have seen the post on the Viva Engage and many have posted... — read more 

What an inspiring call!

Anyone attend Jodi Richard’s RM&C All staff call today? Apparently the Bank doesn’t need to do anything to address low employee morale because “morale comes from within”. So it’s your fault. And yes, lay-offs are coming as they “look to leverage... — read more 

The beatings will continue until morale improves

So U.S. Bank has gone back on their agreements with their employees, has NOT "done the right thing," has NOT "put people first" and now when morale is down because of it it's our fault and it's not up to management to improve morale. Might I... — read more 

Nicollet closing

Interesting email announcing today that they are moving HQ people from Nicollet to the Plaza. Be interesting to see how much Plaza changes when MCs work there. No way they will keep it as slummy as it is now.

Really?

Stealth tactic

https://www.businessinsider.com/rto-mandates-layoffs-quit-jobs-hybrid-remote-work-office-2025-5 Are return-to-office mandates actually a stealth tactic to get employees to quit? It's a suspicion I've heard from a lot of people since RTO efforts... — read more 

Minnesota Age Discrimination Laws

In Minnesota, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) and the Minnesota Human Rights Act (MHRA) both prohibit age discrimination in employment. The ADEA protects employees 40 years of age and older, while the MHRA extends protection to those... — read more 

Does US Bank rehire people after layoffs?

Does severance block you from applying to other openings down the road, when the time it covered expires? Like a year or two later? Heard mixed things about it. Anyone been through this before?

M&A

Has anyone heard that we’re merging with another bank? I’ve been hearing rumblings…

Here to validate you

You, you're not alone in feeling the way you do. There's something more to all of this, isn't there? While touting transparency US Bank hasn't been very forthcoming have they? First: You are allowed to wish things were better or be upset about... — read more 

Any news on May layoffs

After last weeks CEO & MC all-hands, any news on when May layoffs are? For people already laid off, did you receive a same day meeting request and was it at the beginning or end of the week? Was your manager at the meetingor someone higher up?

If you haven't seen the Viva Engage thread...

... it's really something. Your fellow employees aren't afraid to complain about Gunjan, on intranet sites, using their real names. Bank employees of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but your chains (and cr-ppy cash-balance pensions)

It's Been A Week

You'll find me lurking in comment sections trying to provide neutral and reasonable commentary under the handle of NCS. I really like this site and the ability for employees to share thoughts and opinions with the ability to remain anonymous. Or... — read more 

Mortgage world

So I guess Mortgage world is just completely shot and here comes just another investment company and that's the story? I work in the MTG department and both meeting have not reflected anything to do with the growth or where the numbers are... — read more

What happened to the DEI group?

What happened to the DEI group that used to report directly to Andy. Gunjan committed to continuing to support DEI on the cltown hall, but it looks like this group has been quietly put into the HR group and retitled Community Impact and Inclusion... — read more 

Recording?

Is there a recording for the meeting on Monday? I was OOO and want to listen for myself and make my own call.

Mental Health Wellness Month

The intranet reminded me that May is Memtal Health Awareness Month. How ironic, given GK making everyone feel like you know what!

HR & Gunjan

I’d like to hear from my HR peers on their thoughts of Gunjan’s performance at the town hall. It’s apparent that there are Gunjan bootlickers out there within HR that have been raving about out her. Others in HR are remaining silent, they have come... — read more 

Sick Out

Lets call out sick. Show this foreign CEO who is running the company. Lets do it on friday.

Let’s talk about bad leadership

The hallmarks are all there: stagnant results, miserable morale, endless politics, teams at war with each other, constant brain drain, and management that rules through fear. Sound familiar?

Grade levels and compa ratio

Can you explain how salary grade levels work? I understand the general structure is something like: • Grades 11–12: Officer • Grades 13–15: AVP • Grades 16–17: VP If your title is “Officer,” does that automatically mean your salary range (slate)... — read more 

US Bank is laying off age 50+ employees!

US Bank is busy laying off the age 50+ employee's who are more knowledgable and worked harder at their jobs for many many years. They are being replaced by young fresh out of college employee's who know nothing about hands on work. Good luck to US... — read more 

Just Nasty

That CEO is just plain nasty. Who would think that speaking to Employees like that is a smart thing to do ? Definitely in over her head and attempting to bully. I say we go on a slow down strike. Nothing more detrimental to a company.

Glassdoor, etc...

Don't forget to post public negative reviews on Glassdoor, Indeed, etc... This forum is great, but not as visible as some others. GK currently has a 100% approval rating according to Glassdoor - probably a holdover from Andy's days, definitely... — read more 

It's a nice thought, but...

We should do a walk out and strike. Is there even a chance we could get the critical mass needed for something like that to actually work? I’d be more than happy to take part, but realistically, organizing that many people without an experienced... — read more

RTO is just the cherry on the cake

This place will work you to the bone without a shred of remorse. They see hard workers as targets. Pile on the load until you crack, then replace you without blinking. The expectations are insane, the pressure never lets up, and God forbid you need a... — read more 

TTUS anonymous?

Can anyone confirm that the TTUS is actually anonymous? Is there someone on that team that can confirm/disprove the anonymity?

We can outlast Gunjan

Don't despair about RTO - just mention "work from home" in every TTUS survey, and bring it up in every town hall. Gunjan hates being asked. Don't pay any attention to Gunjan's criticisms and meanness - just leave reviews on Glassdoor and mention her... — read more 

Nobody is walking away

All this tough talk about quitting is just noise. When reality hits, 99% of people will swallow their pride and comply, even when it comes to RTO. If employees had real leverage, companies wouldn’t need layoffs. The truth is we’re disposable, and... — read more 

Why is everybody so surprised?

We’ve been headed toward this disaster for a while. If you didn’t see the writing on the wall, that’s your problem. That being said, I hope everyone who hates what this place has become takes off and leaves them scrambling. We already have a wrecked... — read more
