While we sit around wondering if we'll be fired next, NOW IS THE TIME to PULL YOUR MONEY OUT OF WF and put it ANYWHERE ELSE. It's the best we can do while we wait to see if it's our time or not. If you haven't done so already, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND... — read more
Saul's giant middle finger to employees
Dangling a $10,000 referral bonus for the referrer if they refer "outside talent" to WFC. May as well just tell all existing employees to eff off and die. This management team is terrible.
RTO
Latest and greatest: RTO still top of mind, and likely to still be a part of discussions going forward. A leader had a coffee chat with Charlie, and a question was asked about what that leader was doing about RTO. I wonder if anything different will... — read more

100% remote position job posting- is this real?
Saw a posting for an analytics consultant position that says it’s 100% remote… are some teams still getting exceptions or will this be one of those bait and switch situations where it would eventually turn into a hybrid job?
Mandatory OT
We are now required 5 hours mandatory OT and “encouraged” to work Veterans Day and Thanksgiving! We aren’t that busy but are supposed to do it anyway. Waste of funds and no way in he-l am I working on holidays.
HR town hall

Asked for health info?
What would you do if you were asked by someone in management about why you have an accommodation ? I have several disabilities and feel like I may be targeted for this now?
So drained by RTO
