BNY reviews

- Toxic environment - heavy preferences for employees from one ethnic background - Large amount of offshoring. Management wants to run the company on low expenses even if revenue decreased. They try to lay off staff and either retire the role, shift their work on current employees or off shore to India/Poland - 401k match is only given in January for the previous year - PTO is not paid out when leaving the company - Company & most teams expect more than standard work week. Many employees work until 6-7 regularly - Tracking in office attendance, and hours connected to network. HR fires anyone who doesn't meet their in office requirements after 2 strikes. - HR firing employees who don't connect to company network x number of hours, with no warning - Little diversity in many groups - Severely underpaid (20-40%) compared to other financial services companies - Expectation to be in office 4 days soon - Constant threat of layoffs and downsizing. Saw 4 senior employees get laid off - Forced rankings - Not many career advancement opportunities

Hybrid? What a joke. They don’t mean it - it’s all about being in the office so that the new CEO call tell his buddies that he’s gotten people back in the office. Work product doesn’t matter, it is just all about “DEI Goals” and presentism. Not caring about what the knowledgeable people think is also a sign of trouble. They place little value on institutional knowledge and often make changes to employees without consulting with the employees’ managers.
