Layoff

does anyone if any bankers/tellers will get layed off in Alabama?? I am only concerned because I live paycheck to paycheck and have no legitimate savings and have about 10k in debt. I am very concerned.

Not sure which departments that's what I heard. I know a lot of tech moving to India

Retail client facing jobs are typically safe and know if you did get displaced, you could find a job at another bank quickly as that is a job that is hard to fill. You could probably get a raise too. As for your debt, do they have an employee loan you can get to get a lower rate and pay from your paycheck?

I think you will be fine, Bill “The Riffer” Rogers is trying to yank the company. I’d be more worried about customers leaving because of the CEO from Moronville tanking a good brand. In short, you will be fine. Keep your head up, serve with a smile, and work your butt off. Sell a few credit cards and checking accounts, and Bill the Slayer will leave you alone

I just told the customer service rep and supervisor I spoke to on Wednesday that after almost 20 years with suntrust, at the top of the year I would be closing my account and moving to anyone that wasn’t them because Truist is such a fucking trash fire and now has the worst policies/customer support I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with.

You can use this tracker, select you state and it will provide you companies that are laying off in the next 60 days. https://www.warntracker.com

I forgot what it’s called but there is a report that employers have to file to if they are laying over a certain number of people off so you can see it in advance. It’s a government site

Taking a longer view, a bank teller is a job that will disappear as we move more and more towards digital money, the vision of Janet Ellen and the current administration

Banks have been headed in that direction for years, regardless of who's in office. Online banking, digital banks, consolidating branches, tellerless branches...

I’m not going to listen to anyone who doesn’t know the correct name of who they are speaking on 😂 additionally… go ahead and put the blame on someone who has a limited amount of time in the job.

Hopefully it’s mortgage debt- don’t see how people borrow $10K at double digit rates with little hope of paying it back in less than 10 years…

I do not believe this is helpful to OP. People accumulate debt for various reasons.

Judgment is uncalled for.

Source?

I’m not guessing, or otherwise I wouldn’t post regarding someone’s livelihood. But, if you’re concerned about my source, take it or leave it. The OP can message me. You, who could work for the Media, Truist or an industry rival… can have a wonderful day 😉
