Shared Services Operations scheduled Location Strategy Call for Feb 12
Karoline Kane will be elaborating on the 2024 SSO directive to move all non-customer facing positions into centralized locations.
Sound Familiar?
This is why you don't want to work for a groupthink NYC / consultant run company. These rich execs are herd animals and believe that if enough of them do it, they'll never be held accountable for their treacherous actions. Every single day they come... — read more

I am ready to leave
Whatever happens in the near future re: layoffs, I am ready to leave this place. I am overworked, constantly picking up work for people who left. Can’t remember the last time I was done for a day in less than 11 hours. I feel like I live here. And... — read more

Saul su-ks
He is Charlie’s Wall Street protege and acts just like him. Mass layoffs since he took over CSBB but plenty of funds for him and his cronies to travel the globe on the corporate dime. Being paid millions each year but no clue how to make WF... — read more
TK Needs to Boomerang out the Door
When will TK be shown the door?She is a really bad leader. Forget all the offshoring she is doing, that’s just a cost play, that will backfire, But she cannot lead through any technology trends. She is clueless about what WF needs or can do.
RCSA
What will happen to everyone in RCSA after phase 2 is complete?
Scharf: “The wife says you owe me a $4.5 Million raise.”
BOD: “That would be nearly impossible to justify…but how about if you can get the stock back up over $50 — we will be able to claim you’re doing a good job.” Scharf: “Okay! Our global consulting firm says we should spend $30 Billion on an... — read more

Job Market is tough out there…
I know many people are waiting out for their severance, I don’t blame you, but be proactive while you do that. Even though the jobs report made things on the street look rosey, it is not, especially in technology. If you have a pretty good feeling... — read more
Mentor/Mentee
Is anyone participating in this or has anyone participated it in something like this in the past? It appears to be a great idea if executed correctly. Curious to hear both sides of the coin.
Anyone else working 12-14 hour days
Re org number 4 and moved to a new group with huge project. Not familiar with half the ask. Need to learn most of it but it’s too much in a day so having to work 12-14 hours to just keep the ba--s in the air. Not sure how long I can sustain this on... — read more
Technology middle management layer is way too heavy
Let’s flatten em. Fire managers!
Just got back from leave and just testing my manager
Access no, you do it yourself, badging in not working, no do it yourself. Anything I ask he doesn’t do it, so why are you a manager? Am I off on this, or what is a manager anymore?
Shorted hours and workday for vacation days!
Check workday to make sure you’re not shorted. Input December 31, 2024 and see if it is correct!
Remember?
Does anyone remember those Jump into January and Fly into July sales goals in branches?
ER Reps
Are the ER (employee relations) reps trained to be jerks?

CSBB Layoffs
Directors have created the list.
Late Displaced Employee Bonus and 1095-C Statements
I was displaced but still qualified for a full bonus. Not only did I get steamrolled on it but I didn't get the mailing about it until today, even though I could see it (and SMH in dismay at how astronomically low it was) last Wednesday. My 1095-C... — read more

Recognition Celebration Winners - Commercial Bank - Hypocrites
I find it interesting that one of the Recognition Celebration Winners in Commercial Bank is a Senior Manager with only 4 direct reports. I can remember over a year ago that we went through a "span of control" exercise where you could not be a... — read more
As long as Scharf is in charge, layoffs will not stop
I think it's time we face reality. We need to accept that every new day can and most likely will bring layoffs as long as Scharf is still CEO. If that kind of pressure is not something you can take, it's time to start looking for a new job. That's... — read more
Damn! Had to go on leave for surgery.
First time in 28 years, I get a sh---y rating and no raise! I had to take 12 weeks off for a major surgery, and it almost ki-led me! I always get exceeds, but I guess my surgery! D-mb.
Rate of layoffs
Remember, the rate of layoffs will begin to take off like a jet plane, beginning with today. So one back pack is all you should need when you head back to your desk after you get the boot, to gather up (backpack) your belongings. Don't be that (__)... — read more

The Big Lie: Reason for location strategy
Aside from our CEO flatly denying the existence of this strategy during his most recent Town Hall Q&A... Ya' gotta' love the BS reasons given in the email communications re: location strategy. "This move towards a more focused strategy for our work... — read more
Small (?) layoffs in Commercial Banking announced
Not sure how many total, but just heard of a handful in Commercial (Kiran Vuppu org, to be exact). A co-worker told me a friend of hers was part of the cut, and everyone on their team who was cut got told together in a single meeting.
Consumer Lending/CMS location strategy
So some groups (CSBB, WIM, etc.) listed markets as metro areas (technical term) and other didn't, so no one knows where they stand. e.g. Specialty market listed as San Francisco-Oakland-Berkeley. Is it just those cities or is it the metro market... — read more
