BNY’S negative impact on Mental Heath

Has anyone resigned due to the toxic work environment? And did you state that as the reason for leaving?

After 8 years at BNY I resigned but was not asked why I decided to leave and there also no exit interview. Hardly got a goodbye or leaving card lol.

Post ID: @b4+1jx8e560b Your comment flew under peoples radars here.
Manager here: it’s confirmed that the new requirement coming from Robin down is to move from 10 percent below target to 25 percent target at year end.

This should scare everyone. Managers are vocal about how corrupt this is, but Robin is dictating this directive. There’s no way that 25 percent of employees are actually functioning below their expectations - it’s the clearest case of forced rankings in the history of any company.

If things start rolling in my direction and my path leads me out of corporate America which I am currently trending towards. You will all know it because my email is going out to the entire effing company

Dont worry, in your designated hour a week of learning there's one telling you how to take time away to refresh, despite clogging up already overloaded schedules with pop-psych linkedin videos.

If that many people are truly that horrible at doing their jobs, why did BNY hire any of them in the first place?

This thread is truly the tragic part of what BNY has become and what BNY truly delivers: human abuse that goes unanswered and unpunished. You come here lured by being the best candidate for a position. Then after a while, you are systematically run down and eliminated when you have served your purpose or are deemed to expensive. All along the way, you are abused by managers that get inside your head and you are made to feel responsible for things not your fault but theirs. Then finally, you are humiliated with fake reviews, phony ratings and imaginary criticism. All in the name of saving a buck or a pound. Everyone here posting has issues that are not being fixed at the source. And that source is BNY’s allowance to abuse and mentally hurt people. Great culture? Winning teams? Values? Creating the best and brightest business minds here? No. This place creates victims. It is a nightmare that persists even after you are gone. And it is telling that no one really says anything. They just go because they were RIF’d or they could not stand it anymore. Is this OK? No! All that means is that all these tools, agencies and facilities and people that BNY supposedly has to address these issues, are just phony too. Worse, the law is on BNY’s side. Remember, by and large, we are OK, this now cruel place is not.

It’s like a big 4 sweatshop with none of the respect or skill acquisition. Getting a job here is a trap.

I will be an evangelist for how far this company has fallen for the rest of my life.

Yes I left because of the toxic environment. I didn’t mention it on the way out because I just wanted to be done and away. I also didn’t feel like it would matter or make a difference since the toxic culture was tolerated in the area I worked in.

I stated the negative impact the place is having on my mental health like no other job ever. Don’t plan on a change, make the change yourself

The “people team” probably reads this site and views it as affirmation they are effectively torturing people. Mission accomplished

@OP Yes, I did, several years ago but did not state that as the reason. I just wanted out.
