Throwaway because I don't wanna dox myself.
In an effort to make Bank of America more competitive as an employer, Moynihan said he raised wages. Total compensation expenses for the bank grew 10% last year
I haven't gotten a raise since early 2021, and it was just a typically low raise, same as previous years (as in, pre pandemic). Accounting for 2021's inflation, I'm currently making less than when I started working there. I've also gotten no bonus in 2020 or 2021.
The bank’s attrition rate actually fell 50% earlier during the pandemic, he said, but it’s since rebounded to pre-COVID levels.
Probably because they are trying to force us back into the office. My job can and has been done 100% from home, yet in his own words "we're a work from the office company", so they want to force us back.
I was supposed to go back recently, but I got a somewhat vague message saying to "stay home until you're asked to come back", but that was after I was asked to come back, so I'm taking it as stay home and hope they forget to ask again.
The only reason I haven't quit is because I've already been looking for a new job and I'm not sure I can even get one.
Sitting in an all-hands meeting (at a large bank) listening to totally serious and definitely very smart higher-ups talk about using blockchain and saying they're losing sleep over it.
Edit: They just mentioned Fortnite :agony-shivering:
