I hate being stuck in this job
Yet I’m praying not to get laid off. I despise this place and most of my team. My manager is straight from he-l. Clueless, except when it comes to pitting us against each other. People at the top fuel the toxicity, it seeps into everything we do. And... — read more
Before the Tuesday layoff threads start, remember that
You will not get meaningful information about how many were laid off You will not get meaningful information about what LOB/group was hit You will be disappointed with any information provided The same questions posted every week will... — read more
Tracking in office
the discussion has really ramped up… Iowa managers reporting they now see who isn’t in office 8 hours. SDI San Fran based employees saying there’s an 8 hour in office mandate… but my line of business has just heard its managers digression. Can any... — read more
Activity Monitoring discussion coming from a manager near you.
In case you weren't aware, they're also looking at activity levels-- So now they're expecting you to click and email and teams and what the f**k else they're looking at to complain about you. And naturally nothing has been communicated, you know... — read more

Take payments and collect UI or take lump sum and collect UI? What’s the best route?
Good luck!
If you’re still hanging in there, you’re incredibly strong! I’m so glad they let me go — I’ve never felt this free!
Are you ready CTO - FHO
It's coming for you tomorrow. Those who have been waiting for it, hopefully you get it. Those that want to survive, I'll pour one out for you! Good Luck.
I just closed my accoint
I do not work for this company but I just closed my account after the awful service this bank keeps giving me. I also posted a very honest review on yelp. Good riddance Wells Fargo!
Stock Price
It's interesting that the removal of the growth cap hasn't resulted in a significant gain in the stock price, nor has it resulted in Wells Fargo buying up anything. We still seem to be in the continual layoff loop we've been in ever since Charlie... — read more
What sacrifices have you made as a result of working for Wells Fargo in its current state?
Just reflecting a bit this morning. Here are mine: I'm holding much more money that I really need to in cash or liquid instruments because of the layoff risk, and as a result have missed out on big gains in the stock market the past few years My... — read more

Insurance premiums went up 40%???
Did something happen?
Benefit enrollment.
In the past we have 1x salary coverage for Basic Life Insurance covered by company. I do not see that for 2026. Am I overlooking it or did they take that benefit away?
We continue adding H1B headcount
others are cutting but we are adding.
The biggest layoffs like never before
By December. Stay tuned.
Salem Oregon
Rumor is that security guards are getting laid off at the end of October. October 28th seems to be the day. Anyone know how it'll go down?
What is the biggest layoff month ?
Seemed kind of quiet the past few layoffs- is there a certain month that typically is the highest month for layoffs ?
Where do you see Wells Fargo two years from now?
How are we doing? Who's at the helm? Are we making $$$? Do they treat the worker better?
Rama's Payments
How is the payment replatforming going? Is it still a mess with US folks getting axed by Rama?
Long term disability to being laid off
Does anyone have direct experience going from a long term disability leave of absence while their site or coworkers were laid off, and were returned to work after the layoff? I am currently on LTD and am wondering what the process will be when my... — read more
Severees eligible for benefits next year: how did you get notified of open enrollment— or did you?
As above. I just happened to notice it’s open (?) and ends mid Nov, as per uge. I didn’t get an email nor I don’t think a snail mail. They couldn’t possibly try to keep me from getting free bennies months into next year… or would they??
This is what no strategy looks like
So the new tech leader has been here over 18 months and still no strategy. Counting keystrokes and butts in seats? Those are tactics you use when you don’t have ideas. Come up with some d-mb stat like “our average productivity score went from 6.7 to... — read more
Jamie Dimon’s $3 Billion Dollar Tower
If Jamie Dimon thinks that coming to office 5 Days a week is good for all of his employees then you can be sure that his bff Charlie thinks the same way. Maybe that $3 billion dollar tower on Park Avenue was built for Charlie when he takes over his... — read more
Never seen morale so low
This week I had to travel between three office locations. I’ve never seen morale so low across the organization. I found employees to be shockingly unrestrained in their criticism of management. WF has a real problem brewing, and I hope they are... — read more
Benefits Rant
What a shame. Every year 1000s of companies renegotiate with insurers to cut benefits... Sick... Millions of Americans fight, every day, to avoid medicl bankruptcy. They pay taxes close to those in European countries with universal healthcare, yet... — read more
There are over 10K people work remotely in WF
Do they have medical exceptions to work remotely ? How often is the exception reviewed? Not fair for people who goes to office.
Cost of the switch to annual 401k match
AI chatbot told me, when I put in my particulars, that the gains foregone from the switch to annual match from quarterly we used to have is about $1,500, since missing out on getting money in during the lower levels throughout the this year, assuming... — read more
Consumer Lending remote location strategy?
Anyone hear anything about CL updates for location strategy? Myself and a few coworkers are still remote and nothing has been communicated yet?
Anymore talk of 4 days in office?
Wondering if any other business lines have heard about 4 days in office
If this company really wanted to move forward...
This zero-innovation management team would be gone yesterday, and employees at all levels (management are also employees) who think spending 8 hours a day being in an office building translates to 8 hours a day of productivity would be culled in... — read more
