BNY reviews

The second they not need you they'll throw you under the bus. I worked 3.5 years as a Principal UI Developer Senior Vice President. In my contract I had to give 30 days notice if I'd choose to leave. One day my manager calls me in the middle of the day and say it's my last day, in few minutes I need to log out. No notice. Forget about getting your vacation days. Starting in few minutes you don't have salary. This is not how you treat your employees. Even when I was a contractor for BNY Mellon before switch to Full time I got from the contractor two weeks notice. bottom line: wouldn't recommend work in BNY Mellon.

In the face of organizational restructuring and leadership changes, the company has embarked on a series of layoffs that have raised concerns about the criteria and processes used to determine who is let go. It appears that the selection process lacks transparency and may inadvertently prioritize factors such as race, diversity and age, particularly affecting those over 40. This approach seems to narrow the pool significantly, resulting in the departure of many dedicated and motivated individuals who, after passing through these filters, find themselves without a role. The impact of these decisions not only affects the livelihoods of those let go but also sends a disconcerting message to the remaining employees about job security and the value placed on loyalty and hard work. Additionally, with the arrival of a new CEO, there has been a noticeable trend of hiring managers based on previous connections, further exacerbating the feeling of instability among long-standing employees. This practice seems to underscore a preference for new affiliations over established experience and contributions, challenging the notion of meritocracy and long-term career development within the company. The manner in which layoffs have been conducted, coupled with observed behaviors from some leadership figures during these rounds, notably smirks or smiles, further diminishes the trust and morale among the workforce. Such behaviors, whether intentional or not, can be perceived as a lack of empathy and respect for those affected by layoffs, contributing to a culture of fear and uncertainty. For those considering joining the company, it's advisable to stay informed about its culture and policies, and to continuously seek opportunities for learning and personal growth, keeping in mind the dynamic nature of the current job market
