@k8 I was hired as permanent remote in 2023 yet was told in 2024 that I would be required to "RTO" in 2025 and I did. I'm in a part of the bank where we are actually required to comply and if we don't people get fired for cause (not laid off with severance). It makes no sense but this is the hill Goonjackass and her HR cuck Elcio have decided to die on.
@nh Certain roles, specifically those in Operations, WERE made permanent. We have several in my little piece of the bank who were formerly FT Office pre-Covid and reporting to our group's office.
Meanwhile, in my role, my closest coworker is several hundred miles away. Still got forced into a Hub where my LOB doesn't exist. Go figure.
@k8 You live just outside downtown Minneapolis and you're not already hybrid or RTO? Doesn't that put you out of compliance? If I were you, I'd be worried. Either start job hunting now, or get your status changed to hybrid and start going in.
Here's why: if you end up on the layoff list, it may already be too late to request a switch to hybrid. Remember, the intent here is to reduce headcount, and staying non-compliant just handed them a solid reason to pick you.
@a2 My position was made permanently remote in 2024. Do you know when employees will be notified? I am not too worried because I live just outside downtown Minneapolis so I hope there is a good chance for a job near me.
When will this be announced?
On which date will employees be notified?
Oh for Pete's sake! Can't we go one month without some sort of this nonsense from MC? It's exhausting with this management.
Some remote employees are being assigned to hubs. Those outside of hub geographic will have two choices: 1) relocate to hub area assigned or 2) get laid off.
More than 3 days has been in place since they backtracked on their policy in March.
It went from at least 3 days to more than 3 days.
Remote is being removed from new lower level job postings. They are trying to push/keep middle office operations in Wisconsin and Arizona.
15 and up will still have remote options based on the work group/business line
@a4 What do you mean more than 3 days RTO is confirmed? As it is people already end up going more than 3 days because of the 60% requirement.
@a2 what do you mean there will not be a remote option in a couple of weeks?
@a2 What a weird strategy. Instead of copying the banks that have gone to 5-day, it would be a better idea to poach the high-performers at those banks dissatisfied with the remote/rto policies. “Our employees hate us, what can we do to make it even worse?” seems to be the current plan.
Not true that across the board they are removing remote as an option for existing FTEs. But they are not hiring remote going forward and more than 3 days RTO is also confirmed
In a couple weeks there will no longer be a remote option.
