Folks who've worked at WF for years know what I'm talking about. Take a great idea in theory, use the WF way, and F it all up!!!! WF 1ndia is a classic case. They took lower cost staff as the reason to outsource. Yet, WF built huge campuses over... — read more

Anybody else still coffee-badging?
I have been coffee badging ever since RTO started and I have never heard anything from my manager about time spent in the office. I am the sole person on my team at my location so I never see anyone I know when I go in. So I typically take a few... — read more
We do need to tax offshoring ASAP!!!
Importing labor or importing goods, what's the difference? There is no difference. Good jobs are sent oversee and only execs and hedge funds benefit. Stop destroying our worker and our country because of your greed.
All, are layoffs done for this year?
Thoughts?????????
Regional Banks Collapse
Those of you who remember the 2008 banking crisis should be paying attention to the regional Banks today. Looks like history is rhyming. Zions and Western Alliance have become stressed. Since financial markets never operate in a vacuum, let's see... — read more
Old ideas in tech make bad results
Look what’s happening in tech - irrelevant stats being used to stack rank people because the people in charge don’t have actual strategic ideas. Measuring keystrokes and then showing “improvement “. Lol. Butts in seats. If you don’t trust your... — read more
Good ole days
Remember when we used to get Best shot awards, exceptional service awards, and the lucky few, annual trips to Hawaii? Forget the gold Rolex watch from that back alley in Hong Kong, just get me my severance package to sign. That’ll be better than all... — read more
Barn Update
Barnhart folks (Hillsboro, Oregon) got an email today reminding us that WF will be exiting the location before the end of the year. Standard take your stuff home/update your contact info. The end is near.
Declined relocation in August. Severance ppwk delayed?
In August this year, I declined the substantial position change to relocate to a core location. It’s now the middle of October and I have yet to receive the severance package paperwork to sign. Any idea why such a long delay? Thanks.
8 hrs in-office for exempt
Has anyone heard for sure if exempt (professional and managers) are part of the 8 hour RTO requirement? It’s odd that exempts are not paid for working a specific number of hours, yet they’re requiring it by proxy through this RTO policy. I see that... — read more

10/14 cuts
So, how many ppl got displaced yesterday? Am I missing where it’s been mentioned in here already?
Hard to read some of these posts....
The management of this company is primarily responsible for the earnings and stock value presented to shareholders. Many of Wells Fargo's employees are also shareholders. It is nice to log in to the 401K account after a day like yesterday and see the... — read more
So, now that the earnings are out and we know things are going well
That means we're going to pause bi-weekly layoffs for a while, right? No need for it anymore, right? Right? Yeah, I didn't think so.
Not in the third inning?
Just heard CS talking about AI. All at beginning of this -- in terms of efficiency. I intemperate this as CS is looking for AI to increase efficiency. Not too many folks on this board have talked about AI at Wells. Only comments about tech is... — read more

Gaslighting, enablers, spineless leaders and trolls
Goodbye to all of you. Senior leaders who gaslight us on your quarterly meetings…middle managers who know all this is wrong but still enable the system to save your own skin…not sure who is worse, but you’re both spineless and willing to sell your... — read more

What’s up with Theta Lake. When did it start rolling out and how is it being used?
Got email and phone call warning about full day in office

Hogging Focus Rooms in Office
Why do some people feel SPECIAL that they can spend the entire day in a focus room rather than the intended max 2 hours? It’s not your private office!
“Special Award”
Why the he-l is WF making such a big deal about today being the last day to accept the special award and making sure employees accept it. I don’t understand how all this works, but are employees helping to artificially inflate the company stock? I... — read more

If You Could Have Anyone as CEO, Who Would It Be? Why?

10/14 or 10/28?
If Wells Fargo offered a 10/14 or 10/28 layoff (which they wouldnt), but just curious which u would take. 10/14 wouldnt offer the 401k match and 10/28 would. No judgement here, just wanted to get a feel for which u would take if given the opp.

So we all going to be logging OT today. If we get let go tomorrow submit time cards. If not, change it and don’t risk it.
Executive Director role
I got a Job offer from Wells Fargo. How does the Executive Director (ED) role at Wells Fargo compare to the Band 4/Director role at Bank of America? It seems really impressive to me.
PERM jobs are alive and well at WF in Charlotte

Disgusting
Certain employees are being laid off due to the location strategy in Florida. However, Summers, Gindi, Ta, Craven, and several other executives will be operating from West Palm Beach for tax advantages. This represents a clear double standard and is... — read more

There are better workplaces
I left Wells Fargo, and now that I’m at another bank, I can really see how weird things were there. No constant process changes, people aren’t as burned out, and managers actually care. If you’re feeling drained, maybe look around a bit before you... — read more
When do managers get notified about layoffs?
Does anyone know when managers get notified that their direct reports will get displaced due to location strategy? I've heard that it's the Friday before a Tuesday layoff for direct managers. Also curious when second level managers know.
Lunch & Learn?
No, Absolutely not. If I have to drag my tired butt into the office for eight hours, I will not be wasting my lunch time learning anything related to Wells Fargo. I will also not let people schedule meetings with me for eight hours straight. No... — read more
