Spent years preparing....left on my own.
Get your financial house in order or it's going to continue being harder and harder to ever get out of WF voluntarily. The hooks (that keep you there) continually deepen with the salary, the PTO, the benefits, the thought of all the severance you're... — read more
Laid off
Just got my notice that my position is being eliminated. Notice starts today but I have to work through July 3. I knew this was coming for months and was looking forward to it but now that it’s here I’m not sure how I feel.
Does notice period count towards tenure for payout
Am within 3 weeks of anniversary so curious if hit the lottery today, would that extra 30 days carry me over the hump to the glory land of an extra 2 week of sev?
End of the road for me today?!?
So are layoffs done by email or text now? It is a Tuesday after payday. I have an early meeting with My leader today.
Wells Fargo CRO should step down
He is a dinosaur who cannot lead the risk organisation. He has surrounded himself with sycophants to build a bureaucratic empire. The man has no sense of strategy. We can do better than this sub standard CRO.
Timeline for COO/CAO location strategy
I got re-orged to Ops CAO and now I'm not in an approved location anymore. Anyone know how far along ops is in location displacements, trying to figure out how long I have.
STL closing by year end??
This rumor is picking up steam. Risk and Control are first to go.

Tuesday June 10th Layoffs?
Any managers out there anticipate or know about any specific LOBs getting hit this week? And yes, I heard tech is effected. 🤔
Executive/M5 Pay
How much do these guys actually get paid? Base doesn’t look very far from M3s and M4s. Is the bonus what makes a difference? Does anyone have any numbers u can share for Charlotte and NY?
No One Owes You Anything
Why do so many people today think they are "owed" something from an employer. Show up, do your job and you get paid. If they lay you off, don't cry and ask for more. Put on your big boy and girl pants and go get another job. Entitlement and... — read more
ChatGBT
Just curious if anyone uses it in their daily workings at Wells. If so, how and what area of business are you working.
A lot of Nasty
Many on this board are addressing Wells Fargo in a negative light. I have been here nearly 6 months and as it stands now I have no plans to ever leave.
How good is the job search services offered by Wells Fargo
There is supposed to be assistance in finding work and resume prep but we have not received the date we are going to be let go. It is certain to occur. Is the assistance any good?

401k loans after layoff
Don’t hate me. I’m sure it’s been asking before. What happens to the loans when you get laid off?
How many people would actually relocate?
I wouldn’t even consider it in this day and age. You uproot everyone and everything only to risk losing the job the following Tuesday. Relocation is incredibly expensive now, even with the funds they provide. There are so many hidden costs that... — read more

M and A after Asset Cap
Top 3 companies that WF should go after now that Asset Cap is lifted. IMO, it will probably be a Credit Card and or Investment Brokerage Company or perhaps even a Crypto company. They will probably try to catch-up to BOA. GS/MS .. — read more
Relocate/Displacement decision timing
My manager has shared that I will likely be given the "relocate or be displaced" decision in November due to location strategy. I don't intend to relocate, and am trying to understand what the timing will actually be to be displaced once I am... — read more
Displacement timeline
I just wish they’d stop treating us like we’re stupid and tell us when it’s happening. I’m positive it’s coming but it’s impossible to know WHEN. I would obviously like to stick it out to get my severance but if it’s going to be months from now I’m... — read more
No public recognition and gratitude
Why has there not been any mention of head of risk? Hasn’t he been instrumental in lifting the asset cap? Perhaps he is about to quietly ride into the sunset. I would like to thank him on behalf of the shareholders.
STD/ FMLA
I have exceeded my 12 weeks of FMLA (so my job protection rights have ended) but am still on short term disability. My manager has informed me that they are finding someone else to fill my position and when my medical leave ends I’ll be on job search... — read more
Consolidated? Please explain...
Site Closures: There's also some indication that Wells Fargo is closing sites "by the end of 2025" and that the Glen Allen (Richmond area) location is being consolidated.
I learned long ago
A lot of you apply for roles thinking you’re automatically going to get them. Let’s be real: that jump from P3 to P5? It’s not happening. It’s very rare—only if you’re extremely misplaced. Nobody cares. No one’s thinking about you. No one’s worried... — read more
Warning. AI reporting now being consumed.
Your manager has the reports. What’s your utilization score? One minute of productivity for sending an email. Screen went blank? Negative two. Looked at Fox News or CNN during lunch? Productivity goes down. Didn’t have Excel open long enough? You... — read more

Not trying to sound ungrateful, but…
This $2k “special award” is just a flex by the Executives to remind us what peons we are and management reminding us to stay in our lane. Here is what I mean…ok, this $2k award is for the 6 years of listening to the top brass b-itch and moan about... — read more
Industry standard
The phrase it’s “industry standard” has been heard by me in two instances. The first example was when I was told I needed to take two consecutive weeks off so that Wells Fargo could monitor if I was doing fraudulent activity. The second example, I... — read more
