Just wait until 2022.

This same harpy was telling us he-l would be wrought on all of us who arent complying, starting in Oct. Then it moved to Nov. Then Dec. And now 2022. Put differently, nothing changes whatsoever. Ignore the trolls
What happens in 2022? Same thing as years gone by. BAC has never been some mom and pop shop, we are a major corporation. Do people really expect to work here and never experience any stress?
One of the irritating things to me about Corp America the past decade or so, is its delusion that its entrepreneurial...in terms of its culture or the people it employs. Nothing could be further from the truth, especially these days. Its layer upon layer of bureaucracy akin to a government agency.
But C19 is illuminating this fact. The people who are in fact entrepreneurial, will want nothing to do with shots or other such nonsense. They think independently and act for themselves. But that other 80-90% of corp workforce, they all lined up for the shot and will do so for their kids too. All the while, they would almost certainly describe themselves as entrepreneurial. So so many delusions..
Of course its stressful. The country is divided. No one knows what the heck is in those vaccines, and now they want your kids to get the jabs.
And as we circle the drain its blatantly clear 2022 is looking worse and worse as each day passes.
BoA has never been a top tier place to work.
To OP... Look into that crystal ball of yours and enlighten all of us. What will make 2022 -more- stressful than last year, or even the last 20 years?
Never seen such a bunch of lazy people who just want to do the bare minimum.
Oh it’s going to be a sh1t show for sure.
Yup. Super stressed.
Nothing is stressful, so what are you going on about? I'm picking my son up from school right now, because you know, that's how stressful WFH is. 2022 changes nothing. Everyone suspects HR is id--ts, but their posts here confirm it to anyone who doubted their instincts on the matter.
The bank used to be a great place to work, but with most other competitors offering hybrid or full-remote, there are just simply better options out there. Almost no A-list candidates will have BofA on their future career (unless they love the office, water coolers, and are in hub).
This is just speculation and wishful thinking on my part... but maybe, just maybe, the Nov 1st requirement to disclose will be used by the Bank to implement a hybrid work plan.
I have been told that hybrid is being taken under consideration by management due to the outpouring of concerns and requests for it raised during post ESAT phone discussions with teams across the company. The Bank is also well aware that most associates are apprehensive about RTO, it is obvious given the current in office head count right now.
I really wish we could WFH full time permanently but I just don't envision the Bank allowing that; however I think it would be huge if they meet us half way and allow a hybrid work arrangement. This would be a safer, less risky, RTO approach and it would allow us to preserve some of the additional work/life balance that we've grown to appreciate during the WFH pandemic posture.
I doubt I'll be here in 2022. I think my expiration date will be sometime the first week of December.
What happens in 2022?
