WF exiting WF One and Two in Charlotte
It's going to be a little bit more busy at the CIC. This is a good change IMO. We really shouldn't have anyone working downtown in any city, unless they need to be there for some legitimate business reason. Lease smaller spaces as need and have admin... — read more
Is anybody getting offers?
I've done quite a few interviews in January but I received no offers. I believed with at least a few of them that things went great since they seemed satisfied and interested, but in the end, I was turned down. Is this happening to more people? I... — read more

I give all the Execs at Wells a Needs Improvement Rating
Asset cap not lifted, earnings down, employee morale in the gutter, layoffs, stagnant revenues, regulatory scrutiny, etc. Fire them all! The board should clean house!
Why do you care what anyone at Wells Fargo rates you?!
I see all the posts on here about Oh I got meets, exceeds, needs improvement, etc. Why on this earth would anyone care what you get rated by such a shady bank that has paid gazillions in fines for unethical behavior, consumer and employee abuses?!!... — read more
DEI, the disabled, and the bank of doing nothing
Thinking about my DEI feedback, although it will do absolutely nothing in the end, we have to embrace candor, right? Forcing people to go into offices, travel, attend in person events, etc, where high risk and disabled employees are bound to be and... — read more

Charlie not taking a raise
Surprised not to see this on here yet. I guess it doesn't fit the "I hate Charlie" narrative. Maybe Charlie is finally coming around.
