Offshoring of Jobs
When will the top dawgs learn that offshoring of jobs is really not a cost savings & ends up costing companies more money in the long run. For example, all the rework we have to do with P&I work. And anyone familiar with Boeing lately? Their planes... — read more

Undue Hardship
How does WF get away with saying working remote is an “undue hardship” for the business ? If your doctor recommends remote work for you for a legitimate medical reason- how can they justify denying the accommodation?

What’s really going on at Bank of America?
Who has the scoop!
I was among those who were let go yesterday
If that didn’t happen, I would have left on my own anyway. I’ve been with WF for over four years. I figured a while ago that there were no career avenues to pursue. In addition, banking jobs have been consistently degraded over time. I realized that... — read more
Whew!! Relief
Whew, I was so worried that after TK got fired from her job and demoted to some underling under Gidgit , that she would drop from the Most Powerful List of Women in Banking. Good to see the Wells spin machine still works. Maybe AB needs to be told... — read more
Welp, after 16+ years it happened…
I knew it was coming. Executives gave me a heads up around this time last year it would be coming and we’ve stay in constant communication about it and it’s helpful that this doesn’t feel like a ‘surprise.’ WF always accommodated my personal-life... — read more
Layoffs
I haven't been here long so I'm still unsure how things work. From what I've observed so far, layoffs happen usually once a month and it's always just on Tuesday. Am I wrong?
Those who got displaced, were you rated poorly?
Just curious folks that have been let go not because of RTO, if you were let go working from a core location. Can you please share? . I hope you all will find a better place than this sh-t place. I am also curious if it happened a specific day of the... — read more
Got RIF’d today.
I’m vacillating between despair and relief. Honestly my job was mind numbingly boring as I went from a highly active role with lots of traction performing a lot of work to one that did not offer much involvement. I’m not going to let grass grow under... — read more

Year End Self Evaluations
I'm having a hard time even thinking about doing this year-end self evaluation, when I'm at a site that's being displaced next year. Why would they even give us promotions let alone a good raise.
7am Town Hall?
Further proof us west coasters aren't long for this company. CEO Town Hall scheduled for 7am PST. In all my years here I can't recall one this early. At what point do we stop being a San Francisco based bank?

What would you go for if laid off/quit and really don’t like your job?
Would you try another job at the bank or try something entirely different? I’ve been in WF for five years now and I want to leave. I don’t like my job. I initially wanted a career in banking, now I’m inclined to believe that there is no such thing... — read more

I decided to just lay low until I’m booted
People are either wishing to be laid off or praying to keep their job. I decided neither. Job market really isn’t good, and I think first offshoring is going to bleed us before AI finishes us off. At last that seems to be the plan. I’ll have this... — read more

Travel/Vacation while on non-working notice

Required DEI courses
Last week, I noticed those required DEI courses but with no due date were still lingering on my to-do list. However, today they are now gone - apparently no longer required? Have we turned the corner on some of this DEI nonsense?
Sabbaticals
Apparently BofA offers a sabbatical after 15 years of service. We just need Chase to do the same so that we will ultimately copy it! I could use a sabbatical right about now.
RTO- no longer able to make up days
The guidance we were initially given for meeting RTO requirement was based on hitting a 3 day weekly in office average over a span of 13 weeks, and it would be ok to miss a day every now and then because you could make it up a following week. That... — read more
Non Assigned Location question
I heard there is a flag that notes if you use non Assigned locations 50% of the time. Is that a weekly flag (or is the 50% calculated over the course of a longer rolling period?) Do managers have to do their own digging to see who is non-compliant... — read more
