Any news as to when the WEC building will start layoffs for CB? NON core location and will eventually close.
Organization should fire all managers who play fav games
Even if a person does very little work, if they are a favorite, it looks like they have done a lot. But if you are not a favorite, even your 100% effort counts as only 50%. These kind of managers should be gone.
Why am I getting Inconsistent Meet?
F that! I work hard long hours for that cr-p?
"managers artificially making up fake reviews to sc--w good performers."
So true, total BS comments they come up with, "I have problem with managers artificially making up fake reviews to sc--w good performers. This typically happens to those who are not managers' favorites."
RCSA
In at least one division, RCSA is being moved up a week, e.g. they have one week less to get work done. Itchy trigger finger for firings?

Non-hub remote worker here. Got a relo offer. None of the tech locations appeal to me. Already applying elsewhere. Still have the better part of a month to tender my decision knowing that even if another company contacts me that they won't want to... — read more

Auto Finance?
I mean why?
I expect WF to follow soon enough
Saw this article about how Amazon is no tracking time in office for their corporate employees. My guess is we will have something here sooner than we think.
Prima facie
Can’t wait for my midyear review because after 28 years they kicked my a-s because I had a surgery, but I know I have lawyers by my side. Prima facie, give me a bad review after 28 years when I had to do a surgery never had a bad review and 28... — read more
Wave 3 will be a big one
Wave 2 for core location strategy just happened and I was told by team leadership if you weren’t in wave 2, you will be in wave 3. Wave 4 is only special exception/projects. Was told wave 3 will likely be “early 2025”

What’s going to happen to all the employees that have been on the FST for RCSA?
Parental Leave and Layoff
Is anyone familiar with how WF has handled layoffs for employees on parental leave? The displacement/severance policy is opaque and the guidance I found is that they COULD give notice to someone on parental leave (start the 60 day notice period)... — read more
Do layoffs only happen on Tuesdays?
Has it been like this for a while?
Had an awful and dishonest new manager
I decided to go on extended medical leave while I looked for other opportunities and then quit. As a decorated employee with decades of service, I felt that I had no realistic options on blowing the whistle or escalating.
Let's offshore to a country that is trying to collapse the dollar and wreak our enconomy.
Makes sense that Wells Fargo should send jobs to India and tie success to one of the BRICS.
Layoff strategy ECR
When is ECR scheduled to complete location strategy layoffs? Several still employed either remote or non core

TrasyKayrine AMA
Folks should not ask any question in AMA so that TrasyKayrine and her mobsters are not able to take this opportunity to lie, mislead and bs. If no question is submitted, TrasyKayrine AMA call will end in 1 minute and it will look bad on her.
Contingent in Title
One of my friends title in teams suddenly changed with "contingent" attached to the title. Does anyone knows that that mean. for example "risk officer - contingent"
Same boat at JPM and B of A
I cruised the layoff forums for JPM and B of A. They have the same issues we do. I also heard US Bank is pushing back into office and Hubs as well.
Always be on the lookout for another job
It’s taxing, I know. We don’t always have time or, frankly, want to be bothered, but being aware of the state of the job market, getting occasional offers, or maybe coming across the golden opportunity and leaving WF, will definitely make you less... — read more

Let’s see what nonsense they will discuss for an hour.
Do you know anybody who regretted leaving Wells Fargo?
Out of those who left on their own.
AI and your future
AI won't take your job, someone using AI will Technology never replaces. It enhances. Proactive managers have a healthy progressive view on technology -- reactive facilitators do not. I am sure AI is underemployed at Wells Fargo -- but it has been... — read more

Don't wait to be laid-off if you have been with Wells less than 5 years!!
Most of us who want to be laid-off have been with Wells for a long time. But y'all younglings, start your job search right now. One of my co-workers was laid-off, but had no idea it was coming. Get your resume out there, folks.
Jacksonville office closing
The Jax Florida office will be closed first quarter 2025 and everyone will be displaced. A lot of GTM people are impacted. None of these people can be replaced by staff in the Philippines, so GTM should be a disaster. Oh wait, it already is.
Employee Banking after Lay Off
What kind of fees does one incur after a lay off as in no longer a WF employee with their checking, savings, CC, etc?
