This is the only job I’ve ever had where I have to worry about layoffs every two weeks. I’ve worked for other major banks, I’ve worked in other industries too, and nowhere was it ever this bad. I thought joining Wells Fargo would be a great career... — read more 

When are the next business control layoffs?

Nobody can seriously believe that. The vast majority of employees, whether in the office or remote, have worked hard and responsibly, and that’s easy to prove. RTO was introduced for real estate utilization, control, and, most of all, as an attrition... — read more 

Hello everybody in want to warn the community about the mcdonal near the office. I ordered a large fry and all I got was a regular. They think I’m up in hear playing but I got news for them: I ain’t.

Thank you.

I had a huge fight with my manager yesterday. I didn’t back down for the first time over something important, and it exploded into a huge argument that ended with him walking away. All my expertise was ignored, all my knowledge, over a decade of work... — read more 

Collective bargaining is the only way to stop the autocratic march of America and business. It fixed the great depression, it will be the only way to fix the coming depression. They think AI will replace all of tech, but it's not ready. All the... — read more

Yup. Many layoff across many departments. Many states. Many offices. When do the remote workers get the severance? Wrong answers only What’s your favorite scary movie?

Verint is the vendor, they track activity while logged into the network. Not all departments have this, most do not. That probably will change at some point. Essentially it measures activity, idle and inactive time as well as time in applications... — read more 

Does anyone definitively know how Wells Fargo is tracking your "working hours"? I hear that the next big layoff is going to target people who are working only 10 to 20 hours a week. I work more than that (I hope) but it got me thinking about how they... — read more 

Honestly I don’t understand why everyone is being punished for people who are abusing the system.

It’s been over six months since Bridget came on board, so a major reshuffle in her leadership team seems inevitable at some point. I’m honestly surprised there haven’t been any changes yet. Who do you think is likely to raise or move on when it... — read more

What’s the real difference between us giving a company notice and them giving us notice? We choose to work there, and either side decides how long it lasts. When you look at it that way, and realize nothing’s really owed beyond that choice, the... — read more 

With the new mandate raising the salary threshold, many companies are quietly rebranding jobs to dodge overtime rules. Titles like “analyst,” “specialist,” or “associate manager” are being handed out without changing the actual work. It’s a loophole:... — read more

I think we got the votes. There's next to no downside. We can even get some Democrat leaders to back us. The management here has gotten beyond abusive and i wouldn't have thought of every doing this in a million years, but at some point you have... — read more 

Asset cap lifted so they want attrition at all costs. Spoke to someone in the know today and they said they will document how many hours you are in the office and if less than 8 then will hurt your performance reviews. Eventually when it’s time to... — read more 

Something I learned recently is that a big reason banks want people back in the office has less to do with culture and more to do with money. Cities and states give companies tax breaks or abatements if they keep a certain number of jobs physically... — read more 

They need to show their hourly tracking records if they're going to demand 8 hours in the office, otherwise how are people to know where they stand. Like how are people going to take 3 hours of calls in the morning in the office with India, some... — read more

OK. what I heard is that badging in and out will tell the tale. So is the IP info that your PC is sending (via their spy apps) will also confirm in vs. out. You folks - your time online is monitored. Keystrokes, activity, location of PC, etc. All are... — read more 

I will say that the layoffs on 9/30 are "convenient" from the employer cost perspective. Yet, so were the earlier ones throughout the year. It is hard however to stomach losing bonus and 401k match so late in year. Would be better to just get... — read more

One benefit to my eventual layoff is I will never come back to this layoff chat again. Most comments are negative. WF and any other company has the right to set expectations. If you don't like them, you can find a better fit for yourself. I loved my... — read more

It's so sad to see people working so hard, doing the work of 2+ people every day, and seeing the light drain from their eyes and faces. Everyone seems to have the same "ugh" dejected and defeated look. Pure exhaustion!

Nice job WF displacing people on 9/30 so they aren't still considered employees on 12/15 (with their 60 days notice) to get the entire year of 401k matching!

Does anyone know if there is a new incentive plan for bankers? Premiers, RBs, and PBs? Is Chase still better?

Must be in office 8+ hours with no exceptions. Hammers coming down. Charley and Flowers out for blood. This company is the pits
