Thread regarding U.S. Bank layoffs

Q4 rug pull

Last year, MC and executive leadership pulled the rug out from under remote employees on extraordinary ratings and promotions: line and middle management got the news in late October, all employees in November. Only those classified as hybrid or on-site were eligible (which turned out to be largely a dud anyway), while remote staff were punished with a geo-code demotion that completely ignored cost of living. Hundreds, if not thousands, of employees who put in ten months of hard work were denied both monetary and career growth, severely degrading morale across the company.

Given that the CEO, MC, and execs are clearly pursuing a strategy of squeezing employees into voluntarily quitting (via the GCC build-out and other tactics), the question now is: has anyone heard anything about what's landing in Q4? Trying to avoid ... Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice...

I'll echo what everyone else has said - the psycho in charge has exactly ZERO sympathy or empathy. They will continue to squeeze out remote employees because it's in their own financial interests to have people in their stupid "hub locations."

I also dislike commuting for 2 hours daily to an office that doesn't get cleaned, is stuffy, smells like garbage, and people are rude beyond belief. However, they've made it perfectly clear that any deviation from the RTO mandate means being written up and eventually termination. Which I cannot afford, and seeing how this economy is, not many others can.

@b0 You must live on the east or west coast to have a 2-3 hour commute. I think Gunjun is playing along with the other major banks and financial institutions that have similar RTO expectations including punishing remote workers. She won’t change unless they do.

@a9 I 100% have called out incoming retaliation for the horrendous TTUS survey scores.

I also noted it in the new "leadership" expectations - Demonstrate genuine care.

All while being told that the decisions that HARM employees 'cannot' be taken back because those are the decisions made. Like no. If you want to demonstrate these new principles, show us yourselves. Reverse these terrible and employee detrimental policies. They have a choice and they're actively choosing not to.

Hypocrisy. All of it.

I have zero respect for the psycho in charge of the company, and maybe even less for the bootlickers in upper middle management keeping up the circus.

Has anyone tried just refusing rto? The stubborn option of making them fire you as opposed to quitting? I'm so tired of driving 2 hours to a hub 3-4 days a week.

This woman is a psychopath and only working on her golden parachute. She hates everyone, and has the empathy level of a brick. She has no charisma and no industry respect. Be prepared for more changes - I think this woman hates the employee uprising and is out for revenge. U will pay for not being subservient even in words. Folks u need to realize u are a number (previous employee here) and no one can save u. Treat them with the same respect.
