Considering the amount of work I do and my responsibilities here, I feel quite underpaid. Has anyone asked to get a reasonable raise or is it better to focus on looking for a new job?

MD had very low engagement survey results for the second time. So HR is now talking to team to get feedback. Is HR to be trusted or is this a way to weed out the dissidents?

Level 57 (non-STS) here and my bonus target is 15% of base salary. Does this increase with career progression as you move through the levels or is it pretty much fixed until Level 60-61?

I’m predicting an epic failure. Any chance I can be wrong?

What are your thoughts about potential Charles Schwab layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?

When I took this job 5 yrs ago, I asked about layoffs and was told that Schwab "hasn't had layoffs in 15 yrs." What a joke. I just received my walking papers. I have ki---d myself at this job. For nothing. This has been an overall cr---y place... —  read more

Say goodbye to your 2023 Holiday Weekends.

What is the notice policy if I resign?

I really thought Schwab was a much better place than it turned out to be. Elsewhere, too, the employee should mostly be a yes man and glorify his manager in order to be more comfortable at his job, but here it's all about over-inflated egos... —  read more 

I just started today. Any advice for a newbie on how to survive?

Employees matter, but he clients matter more. That’s why the business exists in the first place—to serve clients. You work for the company, they don’t work for you. You may be entitled and have the attitude “well I’ll just go somewhere else, it’s an... —  read more 

RTO / Bonus Connection Question: Is there a connection between being physically in the office and bonus?

Awful. On so many levels. Everyone is burned out. I’ve never seen anything like it. Direct people managers don’t know what’s going on, upper management is touting themselves as “premier” and building “world class service”. We’ve been hearing for 2... —  read more

Heard great things about the Jersey City EC visit. Could there have been some boos? 😂

Just checking in to see if the army of PMs have made any progress with the integration of TDA? Still on track for 2023?

Can Schwab do something to stop all my best colleagues from leaving? Maybe they should first examine why people are leaving in the first place? Everything that leadership does in this regard is not effective. This has already become awful. Some... —  read more 

I don't really care if it's a normal attrition or a mass exodus. The only thing that interests me is what does Schwab intend to do so that those of us who are left would not be so overworked? I can work under this pressure for another month, after... —  read more 

Does the leadership have any vision for Schwab anymore? Or do they think only of their own future?

Where do people look for new jobs besides dice, indeed and linked in ? mds dont care how bad their managers are and i need to start somewhere else.

If yes, when?

Anyone got a count of attrition in Bashar's org? Seems like his lovely personality is wearing on people.

My colleagues are talking about possible cuts, many rumors are already circulating, some are already looking for other options, thinking that they might be a target. I wouldn't say that Schwab is doing badly, and that's why these rumors surprise me... —  read more
