CEO and executive leadership are aloof, detached and dismissive of home office employees. CEO also preaches the "golden rule" while his treatment of others is laughable. Executive leadership has lost perspective and is not in touch with reality, Employees are seen as disposable tissues that can be restocked over time. Employees were recently given less than a weeks notice they are required to return to office full time without any regard for personal circumstances with their current work from home schedule and mental health. Managers throughout the company are not on board with this decision but their opinions don't matter. Stifel pretends that employees are valued, but in reality are treated as a seat in a chair that can be replaced by another seat at any time. Forcing all employees back into home office won't necessarily improve customer service. Employees may feel dejected and have poor attitudes in an environment with zero morale. Work/life balance has been cast aside. Annual meeting with FAs and home office employees was moved to Las Vegas with minimal home office representation while FAs were told that St Louis is too dangerous to host them. Meanwhile the home office has beefed-up security and police patrols since employees cars have been vandalized numerous times in the parking garage which employees must pay to park in, among other issues. The previous return to office after COVID was handled in the same manner creating a mass exodus and positions were unable to be filled due to no wfh flexibility. This eventually prompted a reversal of decisions and employees were allowed wfh.
