Several months earlier, my partner overheard a conversation between several managers being told by leadership to cut staff.

Since then, my partner's manager has started documenting her for minor issues by email, taking away her work and re-delegating it to junior staff, and isolating her from her team.

She has been at the bank for 20 years and never had any performance issues.

Given the mass layoffs in recent months, could this be a pressure tactic to get her to quit so they don't have to pay out a large severance?

Is this also happening to others at the bank?
