Exec fantasy league: SVB up, TK down ?
"Wells Fargo Names Saul Van Beurden to Lead Artificial Intelligence; Kleber Santos to Expand Responsibilities and Serve as Co-CEO of Consumer Banking and Lending with Van Beurden" cannot be good for TK, previous AI cheerleader.

That moment when you realize
Everyone in your management chain above your 1-up are buddies from a previous financial institution. You would think they might try to hide that fact rather than broadcast it. The who you know, not what you know, is in full swing.
Pregnancy In-Office Exemption

Not relatively to layoff.. asking question to experienced HR professionals.
When it comes to forced ratings of performance reviews people say document everything. Is this a personal document I print? In my case I am being targeted. Going to HR will do nothing except make the situation worse. No retaliation is a blanket... — read more
Feels like tech is getting set up for a massive cut
There's a weird effort to consolidate knowledge in tech. It absolutely feels like we're all being asked to make everything it takes to do our jobs be documented in a single repository. Whether that's to farm out the work, or train an AI on it is... — read more

upcoming comp cycle
given we have lifted the asset cap and are extremely profitable, one would think this years comp would be one of the best in a while, but from what I hear it's going to be one of the worst. Guess they need more money for severance and stock buy... — read more

Cash Balance Plan: does you get an account number if you’re
