DE office 1/12/22 RTO. Our desks are on top of each other. We are like sardines. I wonder how long it will be before the whole office is infected. Being vaccinated doesn't mean you are 100% safe. It simply means that IF you get it your chances of death or severe illness are lessened. I'm almost certain my RTO office will result in an infection. So do I quit and have no income or do I go to work and get sick? Pretty tough place they have position they have put their employees in.
Per Washington Post article, “ Omicron spreading rapidly in U.S., could bring punishing wave as soon as January, CDC warns. The worst case scenario has spooked top health officials, who fear a fresh wave, layered on top of delta and influenza cases in what one described as “a triple whammy,” could overwhelm health systems.”
I don’t know why you grunt workers are complaining, acting as if you mattered hahaha. Don’t complain if you’re just going to stick with the bank. “I’m going to keep working from home, I’m not going back to office.” No, you’re going to do what you’re told to now be quiet. You aren’t going to do anything and that’s a fact. Suck it up and get back to work!
@1upn+1ehtOgEm BS - either cite your source or stop spreading rumors and misinformation
Yes I did.

This makes me realize how much everyone is lying.
Wait just one minute…. The WHO (world health organization) just said the omicron is spreading faster than any other variant and now they are bringing back vaccinated and unvaccinated? What the heck was the point of getting vaccinated if the unvaccinated are being allowed to RTO? This is beyond unbelievable. This company better pray THERE ARE SO SIDE EFFECTS for those who got vaccinated.
By now you should realize there was no pandemic….
So why is GS and others in UK asking employees to WFH? Is the omicron variant over there more dangerous?
WTH is going on here?
One leader awhile ago said-“we just need to get you back in the office and then TRUST ME we will look at hybrid,etc. LF just said NO-pretty much ain’t happening. So many issues were skates around on that call. She said regardless of OMICROM- we are still going to return to the office. It’s all so hard to digest.
No hybrid? I’m so disgusted it’s not even funny. Bring us back while the pandemic is raging. F this place. I’m done.
@1tzk+1ehtOgEm Not a joke.....it is happening. Just got off a L&SS call. No hybrid....back to the office. Period.
Vaccinated and unvaccinated will be separated. In a meeting right now.
RTO is a freaking joke... They've been trying to get people back in the office for 3 months now and most offices remain largely empty... SLT get a clue!
To be honest, people that are actually going into the office are only part timers. I haven't seen anyone in the office more that 2 days a week.
Excellent, fresh salt just in time for Christmas dinner
Smart CEO's lead the pack, dum.b ones circle the drain and double down on stvpid. BM must be dizzy down there...
Goldman Tells Bankers In London To Work From Home If Possible
Now that the UK has identified the first patient infected with omicron to die, and PM Boris Johnson has asked Britons to work from home starting Monday if possible, it appears banks are once again asking workers to stay away from the office, if possible.
According to Bloomberg, Goldman Sachs sent a memo to its staffers in London last week asking them to return to working from home if possible.
“Those of you who are able to work from home effectively should do so from Monday,” the lender said last week in an internal memo. The bank’s offices will remain open for those who still need to come in. Safety protocols including an on-site testing program and the wearing of masks away from desks remain in place.
The guidance is in line with BoJo’s request last week that workers across England work from home if they can starting Monday. BoJo made the request while unveiling his “Plan B” COVID restrictions to fight back against the omicron variant.
Goldman isn’t alone: HSBC, Deutsche Bank, Citigroup and others have all told their bankers in the UK to stay home. Goldman’s call is even more notable, however, because the bank’s CEO, David Solomon, famously loathes working from home, and has vowed to try and stop it from becoming a lasting norm.
But financial firms aren’t only telling workers in the UK and Europe to stay home. As the 4th wave of COVID infections appears to have finally taken hold in New England, Fidelity, which has a large presence in Boston, paused a “pilot” return to office program in the city, according to a spokesperson.
That call applies to offices in Boston; Smithfield, Rhode Island; and Merrimack, New Hampshire. The decision was made due to “rising COVID risk.”

Got mine in charlotte. Wife is early on in a high risk pregnancy. I’m not happy about this to say the least.
To: @1dgx+1ehtOgEm
No one said you can't make a personal decision to put on a mask.
Losers! Hahahah
Got mine in FL. Cubicles so close and with short walls one could stretch an arm and touch a neighbor. Break room has 1 table for 200 people 3 microwaves. Bathrooms broken on the regular and have to walk 3 buildings down to use one. Broken elevators. No mask due most Florida's not believing Covid is real. T
By 01/12/2022 so many things could cancel this plan to RTO. We’ve got so many more variants incoming.
The people that received this email today, are you vaxxed?
Got the email. I am surprised that RTO is top priority over Employee safety. Kudos to all the executives and new management for changing the work culture. Good Bye BofA.
Got mine, still not going back. Got the omicron right now….by January I’ll have the next variant….sorry, gotta be safe, can’t come in with these sniffles and cough.
Play their game.
Suuuuuuuuuckkkkkers..
Yup got mine today Boston Mass.
Just got mine 1/12 in PHX
Just got mine. SoCal also. Gonna be sick.
Yep got mine today as well. Going to continue to look for other opportunities because this place is garbage.
HR person with the inside scoop- any mention of the bank eventually going hybrid/more flexible?
Yup and I'm disgusted. I've officially had it.
Just got mine as well for 1/12/22 in Chicago
I posted in the other thread. Told you I wasn't pulling your leg. Lot of people got their marching orders today.
