U.S. Bank is putting its money where its mouth is, announcing a cool $450,000 in grants to three Charlotte non-profits last week.

It’s great to see big businesses like U.S. Bank stepping up and supporting local initiatives!

Truist Tightens the Leash on Remote Work

Heads up remote workers! Truist Bank just announced a policy change that might have you scrambling for your office wardrobe. They’re requiring all employees to be in the office at least four days a week starting this fall. Their reasoning? They believe it will help strengthen company culture and collaboration. Looks like the “work from anywhere” dream might be on hold for Truist employees.
