Thread regarding U.S. Bank layoffs

U.S. Bank is plagued by deplorable leadership at the top and this fact is now being noticed by the institutional shareholders in my opinion, leadership couldn't give two hoots about what the employees think, however when the big institutional shareholders start flagging weaknesses in the bank's core business lines, particularly payments, you get these bizarre initiatives to make the numbers more appealing to the shareholders, i.e. moving desktop support overseas, moving payments support overseas, surveying part of the employee base quarterly, establishing a RTO process way, way too late in the game and rolling out an abundance of initiatives that don't make money for the shareholders but add more lipstick to the pig and relish telling Wall Street how successful it really is.

Yeah, I think I'm done participating after this last round. They're using the fact that most of us said that we consider our home office to be our primary work location as a justification for forcing us to go back to the office. Fu-k them and their so-called values.

The management team used to do this once per year and actually tried to make improvements based on the results. Now it’s quarterly and just a formality because they still want EEs to think they care. Listen closely to the next time your manager reviews the results on your next team call. They will spin the sh-t out of it and only focus on the positives while ignoring anything that actually matters in making this a better company AND culture to work in.

The culture has never been more toxic in my 10+ career here.

TTUS is another useless activity to trick stupid low level employees into thinking the bank cares about your opinion. They don't and it will always be a poor place to spend your working lives. It's never going to get better.

The azz kissing that middle management loves will never end. This is how front line managers are judged. The bank does not care for a moment about employee happiness.

Absolutely a joke. The worst manager I’ve had in my life was at USB. She got consistently poor scores and nothing ever happened. I stopped participating.
