Life After WF

10+ years at the WF before the layoff. Just had my 1st review at the new job. My raise was more then the combined last few years at WF. I was thanked for being a hard working team player. It felt nice to be treated like a professional. No place... — read more 

Proposed new Basel regs will curtail portfolio lending

At the big banks, massively. This will hit non-agency mortgage lending hard. Those famous great Wells Fargo jumbo rates could be a thing of the past. Big banks won’t wanna touch portfolio mortgage at all.

People Getting Physically Sick and or retiring early

Wells Fargo used to pride itself for the quality of people they have in their institution. People As A Competitive Advantage or P.A.C.A they called it. Once Charlie changed the title of its Team Members to Employees, everything started going down... — read more 

Funny, But True

One of my teammates got axed and replaced by an offshore person. Funny thing is he is Indian and just got his green card. Irony can su-k.

How are people still getting "remote" exceptions?

How are people still receiving "Remote" exceptions? Either for themselves or their people? When you search someone on the Intranet, you will know they are fully remote when you see this: Physical work address: Remote Remote, STATE ZIP USA

Ethics Llne is "phone a foe"

The fastest way to get terminated is to call the Ethics Line. Ethics don't exist at WF. Proven on a daily basis. Buy a muzzle or duct tape instead. Much better investment.

Let's play the Career Mobility drinking game!

Every time you hear or read about "career mobility" here from management at Wells Fargo and have had yours taken away, down a shot of your beverage of choice! I'm already hammered this morning.

I often wonder why Managers don’t use their power, influence and contacts to take a strong stand against Charlie & Co.

Charlie states he is “transforming our institution while supporting our customers, employees, and the communities we serve”, but you know nothing could be further from the truth. Managers are privy to the e-mails, meetings and plans which prove the... — read more 

Called it: Bank of America

Not only was the bank's fraudulent activity (since 2012) met with swift announcements and fines, now the bank's profits are reportedly up 19%. Two big banks, same fraud, two different results. Why? WF oversold themselves as a trusted brand for not... — read more 

Look at job postings - US vs India

Since I am just waiting for the axe to fall, thought I'd search on the internal job boards. Do a search for Product Owner or Scrum Master and compare the # of avail positions in India vs. US. India-103 US-55 Its like this for every search I've done... — read more 

KK's SSO Town Hall just now...

I'll paraphrase KK: "The company is doubling down on the location strategy, and you'll receive ample notice to apply for a hub job if you're in a non-hub location before you are canned." The writing is on the wall for many of us in... — read more 

HR Limiting Your Job Apps to 5!

Anyone see this announcement? HR really su-ks seeing that it has ALWAYS taken 2-3 months to hire someone. With all this outsourcing and layoffs it appears to me that someone decided to tamp down what we’re applying for in the US so they can lower... — read more 

Home lending risk

Anyone have insights into the irm functions? Seeing a few good paying jobs on that team. Interesting since lending is on the decline but that doesn’t mean the risks disappear. Is it a new team?

HR is a trainwreck

Had to call HR tech support as I could not access teamworks from home to see my payslip. The Indian guy that I waited on hold for 25 minutes could hardly speak English. He told me my employee ID number did not exist nor did my email. Basically I... — read more 

Mid Year Raises

How can someone get a mid year raise? Are they possible in this day and age?

Any Layoffs this week?

Since this is a layoff board, anyone know of potential layoffs this week? And I don’t mean, yes they happen every week but more about which groups?

Can WF afford to keep losing their best people?

Cheap labor doesn't mean qualified labor. Replacing great US based workers with someone cheap offshore will get this place exactly what they are paying for. Additionally, when there is no consequence for poor performance, and no reward for good... — read more 

EA is a cluster flock

For an organization that is supposed to be about governance, strategy, best practices etc. they are rolling out the most half baked and garbage solutions. Yes. Tech is affected.

Duke Energy Building Uptown
