Thread regarding Bank of New York Mellon Corp. layoffs

Filling reqs

Anyone’s location seeing a big struggle to fill reqs? It’s bad enough we have to fill them in “growth” locations only, This is insane now. Multiple offers made and all declines because they want over 60 k to walk in entry level to start with no experience. That’s if you can even get to the point of an offer because there are no resumes or the few you get are garbage for candidates

This has been a struggle for years. HR moves at a glacial pace. Getting offers approved takes forever. And now the bank doesn't seem to be willing to hire anyone for less than a K grade.

Growth locations offer the most well educated and experienced candidates at the best price points. Pittsburgh is in fact the target location of choice.

And to your complaint… yes, every new hire comes in making more than your coworkers and you do. You likely don’t realize it, but you came in above your coworkers as well.

@2cec

If you can’t find great workers in Pittsburgh then you should be asking some very direct and pointed questions to the HR Rep involved. Pittsburgh is by far the best bang for the buck of any BNYM location, for any grade level and any skillset period.

Lake Mary, Pittsburgh, and (shocker) Chennai are the only locations they would even consider. And our group would not find anyone with experience in any of those three.

What do you think you’re getting for 30–50K per year when inflation is out the roof? You’ll be posting this in 3 years from now unless you actually plan on training someone that you consider “garbage” or you actually raise the salary.

Capitalism works both ways. Dare I say: Give someone a chance?
