Topics regarding layoffs at USAA

Question about applying internally

anyone know if your manager gets notified in any way if you apply internally to another position? Been at USAA for a little over 1.5 years as a software engineer and frustrated with my current role

Got my notice today!

Just received my notice this morning! At last, done with this cr-p chapter in my life! The stress and micro mismanagement is so not worth it! Done with working at a place run by a complete narcissist! Im sure Wayne is wearing his high heels, drinking... — read more 

Bonus decrease.

Sooooo, I was setting up some things in my profile and found that it was showing a 10% bonus for positions now and not 15%. So i checked it against random positions and found they all said 10%.

Big disappointment

Every time I hear rumors about layoffs, I am disappointed primarily because I know that all the effort I invested here is not really important if they decide to get rid of me. How does a person fell who's worked hard while knowing that he shares... — read more 

Proxy Voting - Only Veterans on the Board

As an USAA member for over 35 years, Just completed the proxy voting for whatever it is worth. Only veterans got my vote for the board. Others seem to be causing USAA to go downhill. Several questions regarding the change to the by-laws. It... — read more 

The Office

Being in the office 3 days a week for 8 hours each day feels a lot like being in prison, but without 3 free meals per day and free cable TV. #WayneSucks #FireWaybe

July 20th Layoffs

Just be prepared my friends. There will be at least one more round by the end of the year as well.

Learning from actors strike?

Should we be learning something from them ? Their beef is around AI replacing their jobs and CEOs getting millions of dollars while others get much less and or no work. ( I know cry me a river but hear me out ) why don’t we are Corp america workers... — read more 

P&C Manager

During our Friday meeting the team was voicing their frustration due to the amount of complaining coming from the members, call volume, Etc. Also that we feel like we’re getting the short end of the stick because our numbers aren’t in line like they... — read more 

EDAO Meeting - flat as a pancake

This is a monthly meeting held for people to voice concerns to upper management, who really don't even pretend to care anymore. One person was brave enough to point out process flaws and lack of management participation in readouts, only to get a... — read more 

Started outsourcing

Changed password and had to contact tech support. Normally tech support experience has been done with Usaa employees, but was surprised that it’s been outsourced. It took 3x slower than normal and not efficient. One shouldn’t be on call for over an... — read more 

If 2023 is another loss

If it’s announced next year that 2023 was another loss for the company, there is no possibility that Wayne keeps his job, right!?!

When Enough People Make False Promises...

Then words mean nothing. Jon Snow said this when he refused to take a vow to a leader he did not believe in. USAA just lost more than $1.3B. They just lost.more than the $12B+ valuation. They have lost their reputation. Their words mean nothing... — read more 

The grass is greener folks!

I know USAA has many kool-aid drinkers, many who believe the company can do no bad because we “know what it means to serve.” I left in May for WaFd Bank, same job function (credit cards) higher salary and fully remote! Yes folks, if you want a fully... — read more 

I AM A MEMBER

So I worked at USAA for 12 years, but I have been a member for 47 years because my father was a military officer. So as a member, I would like to know how I can communicate with the board of directors without having to go through the a-s hats at... — read more 

FTE Work From Home

Keep slobbering on the peacock. I will fi d another job where I don't have to su-k on objects to stay employed.

P&C Department

Get ready for managers to most likely be even angrier and take their cr-p out on you even more.. apparently they’re going to start taking calls. It’s going to be through the directory for escalations. So now the work from home managers that don’t do... — read more 

It won't be surprising if they start to overwhelm us even more

It wouldn't surprise me at all. If the manager already doesn't know when enough is enough, then we can expect them to start being even more unrealistic with their demands, right? That is, until eventually burned-out employees end up quitting.

RUN.

Run and run quickly. USAA is not the same company anymore. Those of you who drank the kool-aide need to snap out of it. I left abruptly a few weeks ago for a better opportunity and I thank myself every day that I made that decision. At this point the... — read more 

Jumped the Burning Ship

Loving this comment

"The Managers enacting these tactics are people who cannot find great jobs. And they will be shredded in the very same machine they are currently feeding."

I got fired from USAA in May

This is a pretty long story and I contemplated for a few weeks if I should share but thankfully at this point, I was able to find a new job quickly so here goes. I started at USAA in summer of 2021 during the worker bo-m. I was at my previous firm... — read more

Anyone else cross train in detections?

Think they are setting you up for failure. I just started cross training in detections and weent through a few days trining and already got fails from qa for the most stupidest reason….

PIPs are not good.

VPN

Did anyone else notice logging in from the office does show VPN anymore? I am thinking they are about to start tracking in office work by how we are logged in. I know other banks doing this. I am thinking they are about to crack down on the people... — read more 

USAA Long-Term Survival Plan

Just be like that AVP that was the emcee for the 101st Birthday Celebration. If you read this profile on Connect for this piece of executive trash, he "created" the position he is in. So while people who do actual work are laid off, this talentless... — read more

You will be lined up for failure.

Be aware. Take care of yourself and your future. When the quota and numbers come from above they won’t take care of you. When it’s about to rain bring your umbrella.

What if I just don’t go in?

So I live within the 60 mile radius but it would be almost two hours a day commuting which I refuse to do. I’ve heard vague comments about it affecting my performance but I don’t fully understand the consequences of not going in and I can’t get a... — read more
