BNY reviews

Company did not cover mandatory work from home internet expenses with a stipend. Company offered no pay increase for helping them out with other departments. No bonuses either. No pay based on experience in the call center. Everyone is entry level coming in regardless of background and resume. 401k match was only at 3%.

For as big as BNY Mellon is, we are surprisingly bad at making strategic decisions. Private Wealth management seems to do a lot of ready, shoot, aim, which results in self inflicted injuries and decisions that are later walked back. Senior management talks a lot about work life balance and employee well being but their decisions have most employees thinking they don't really mean it. They're either completely out of touch with the hours being worked by employees trying to meet corporate objectives or they don't care. During my time and BNY Mellon I've seen some very good managers and some spectacularly bad ones. The bad ones always managed to hang on way too long. Compensation is lousy. To get a decent raise you pretty much have to leave the firm.
