On Friday a decorated 10-year employee of corporate payment systems sent an email to all 4,000 + CPS employees calling out the unethical and demoralizing activities of CPS leadership.
This employee says in his email he has been with the bank for 10 years, won numerous awards including the highest award in the bank Legends of Possible. But within a few short months of him bringing up concerns about the removal and reduction of anti-money laundering employees and programs, exposing the bank to extensive risk, he was shuttled into a place where he was defending his reputation he was being removed for meetings and put on a performance improvement plan.
While I am not the one who sent this email, I can attest that this is absolutely the behavior of leadership in that group, specifically Brian Richter, CPS Chief Credit officer. He has allowed programs that put the bank at extreme risk, and then retaliates against others when they're exposed. If you have the unfortunate position to work in his downline, be very vigilant about watching your back because you may be next to be railroaded.
