Wells Fargo Bank Decimates US Domestic Workforce by hiring 3 unqualified offshore Workers for every 1 skilled US Worker

Layoffs to the US workforce will continue until the December freeze goes into effect. Until then, More cuts will hit mortgage, CB, Auto, branches, corp risk, technology, and others in remote rolls and non-hub locations. They will also be hitting hub locations for individuals that are not compliant on the RTO policIES. The justification is to offshore for the cheap labor! This is the only way that C S knows how to cut costs. Pretty pathetic.

Now for the my rant of truth: if it’s TLDR, then don’t bother, I am only speaking the truth.

The current CEO is failing miserably. Meanwhile the Board of Directors continues to drive a false narrative that he is making progress and being a successful CEO while at the same time The company experiences, faulty systems, Multi billion dollar fines, and serious impacts to our customers due to all of these glitches that pop up on a monthly basis. it just goes to show how much the CEO actually understands repetitional risk.

The truth is the bank continues to be a habitual offender and meeting its regulatory obligations. CEO continues to cost the bank billions of dollars in fines and additional regulatory action. he is an overpaid CEO that cannot show any milestones or successes, or even how far along he is in whatever strategy he pitched to the board upon hiring him.

The Sharty CEO cannot maintain the stock price. in fact, it consistently is getting lower than when the bank came under extreme scrutiny and was outed for the false account scandal. Can someone tell me why this CEO continues to receive multi million dollar raises, unlimited access to the company jet for personal vacations, And insulate himself with his most recent hires of all his deadweight cronies.

The only way to turn this bank around is to find a CEO that actually understands both banking and technology. If Wells Fargo CEO was truly looking for this to be the year of efficiencies, he invest in the current employees, along with allowing everyone to use an AI assistant, such as Microsoft copilot. You would think that since he’s on the board of Microsoft, he would actually understand this. Unfortunately, he is a dinosaur and defaults to his 1980s playbook of offshore US domestic talent to hire three qualified offshore individuals. Any id--t could come up with this strategy.

If you really wanted to invest in our risk and controls he would be looking at technologies that not only automate these controls, but also allow the bank to be proactive in their risking control environment.

This will never happen under a dinosaur CEO. Let’s look at an example real quick. I’m no fan of musk, but if you look at Tesla and his other companies, there is a reason why he has become the richest man in the world coinciding with profitable companies. I understand his companies have had their ups and downs, but so has Wells Fargo.

The point I am trying to make is, without a younger CEO, Wells Fargo will never make any significant changes better their efficiencies. The CEOs, lack innovation, long-term strategies, and knowledge in what technology can do to assist workers do their jobs and be much more efficient. There is a reason why musk is the richest man in the world in such a short amount of time. I just named a few of those reasons.

It’s time to get rid of the senile dinosaurs and bring in some young, knowledgeable, and motivated employees

The only thing that our dinosaur CEO can say, is that he cut headcount by offshore US jobs and reduced costs by paying cheap labor. This reminds me of the barons back in the day who were building the railroad. They made sure to capitalize on cheap labor, regardless of equality or ethics.

If you look at their earnings, call, you can see that they’re big topic. Was they cut headcount which resulted in reduce expenditures. I’m glad they can pat themselves on the back.

If you look at the CEOs history, he has left every company with a bad taste in its mouth. Just ask the BNY melon folks about how he tried to implement a return to office policy. They gave so much pushback that he could not get it through and moved on.

This guy is deadweight! If the board is too senile to notice this, then they are deadweight too. It’s only a matter of time before this fragile house of cards comes crashing down. This is why the CEO has recently insulated himself with his cronies and has a golden parachute waiting when the time comes. Just take a peek at his offer letter on the SEC website. It is public information and you would probably be shocked. And for those who say that he is compensated based on compensation at similar banks. Well guess what, Wells Fargo is nothing like other banks! Can anyone name a bank that has been restricted to grow due to regulatory orders? The answer is no. Are there any other banks that have Paid as much and fines as Wells Fargo? The answer is no. This makes Wells Fargo nothing like any other of the banks. Don’t even try and compare it. I have still yet to see a milestone, or how far along our CEO is along on this smok and mirror journey.

The baby boomers are greediest generation, and history will judge them for that. They are nothing but ego maniacs, who refuse to step aside, and let young talent turn the bank around.

Offshore US jobs is not the answer. Capitalizing on both banking knowledge and utilizing technology will create efficiencies right out of the gate, and mitigates significant amounts of risk posed by offshore American jobs. These chumps should be ashamed of themselves.

If this was any other employee performing in this was they would have been fired years ago. It sure gonna be funny to watch when instability erupts in the regions are dinosaurs CEO decided to offshore American jobs to.

Biggest proof that our CEO is completely completely out of touch is the fact that he just spent a half billion dollars on space at HY. What kind of mo--n buys commercial real estate right before the bubbles going to burst? This was a terrible investment and could’ve been purchased at half the cost come 2024. he just needs a place for all his recent NYC hires that he has insulated himself with.

All of this is public knowledge and public information. If this is too long to read my bad. At least I’m providing the inconvenient truth. What a terrible CEO Who? is too old to even come up with a long-term strategy, and make sure that he can capitalize on his short term plan a.k.a. when is five years is up. Take a peek at his offer letter and you’ll understand what I mean.

The community reacts to layoffs at Shell Convent Refinery
Local educator named ‘December Teacher of the Month’
CONVENT, La. (WGNO) — In St. James Parish, Ken Tureaud is surprised by the news that the Shell Convent Refinery is shutting down operations permanently and laying off a little more than one thousand workers.
“I feel for the people from the bottom of my heart, deep in my heart because they got families to take care of. There is not telling what responsibilities they have to take care of without a job,” Tureaud said.
Operations are being shut down due to fuel demand being hammered because of Covid-19.
“This area is supposed to be the richest parish in the State of Louisiana, but they’ve got a lot to show me,” he said.
Tureaud’s been a working man in Convent all his life. As a heavy equipment operator he says it has been tough to find work here.
“Applying for jobs and still couldn’t get jobs that I was looking to get. Not just to make money, but to do something that I love doing,” he said.
But he wants to offer hope to those workers from the Shell Convent Refinery who are now left without jobs.
“For me it was never easy. I never gave up. I prayed to the good Lord and let him take me where I needed to go,” Tureaud said.

ABC News Hit With Layoffs as Part of Disney Cuts
Radio Disney to Shut Down as Disney Undergoes New Round of Layoffs
ABC News has laid off a percentage of staff in the low single digits on Thursday as part of ongoing cuts across the Walt Disney Company, a source familiar with the matter told TheWrap.
An ABC News spokesperson declined to comment on the number of staffers laid off.
Earlier on Thursday, TheWrap reported that Disney was shuttering Radio Disney and Radio Disney Country as part of ongoing restructuring across the company. The 36 affected full- and part-time employees were notified Thursday and will all be laid off in February 2021.
Last month, Disney announced it was planning to lay off 32,000 employees — mostly from its theme parks division — in the first half of 2021.

L.A. looking at layoffs for as many as 1,900 workers, including 951 police officers
Faced with a growing financial crisis, Los Angeles city budget analysts recommended Friday that the city begin preparing for the elimination of nearly 1,900 filled positions, including 951 officers at the Police Department.
City Administrative Officer Rich Llewellyn advised Mayor Eric Garcetti and members of the City Council to lay plans for deep reductions at the LAPD, cutting the number of rank-and-file officers by roughly 10% while also eliminating 728 civilian jobs within the department.
If the city ultimately moves ahead with such reductions, the LAPD would likely have fewer police than at any point in 25 years.
In his 144-page report, Llewellyn said the cuts are needed to close a budget gap that’s expected to reach $675 million by June 30, a crisis prompted by lower than expected hotel taxes, parking fines and other revenue compared with the prior year. Because the fiscal year is nearly half over, Garcetti and the council have less time to eliminate the gap, leaving them with far more aggressive cost-cutting proposals than in previous months.
The council is expected to take up Llewellyn’s budget proposal in the coming weeks. The report recommends the elimination of positions at other city agencies, including 143 in the city attorney’s office, 45 positions at animal services and 27 in the Bureau of Engineering.
The budget proposal is viewed by some at City Hall as an attempt to wring concessions from the Police Protective League, the rank-and-file police officers’ union. Officers are on track to receive a 3.25% raise in January, followed by another 3% in 2022, and so far the union has shown no interest in forfeiting those increases.
For months, activist groups like Ground Game L.A. and the People’s City Council have called on City Hall to make deep reductions at the LAPD, which consumes roughly $3 billion per year, as part of the growing movement to defund or abolish police. Although the LAPD represents less than 30% of the overall budget, it consumes half of the city’s “unrestricted” funds, which Garcetti and the council are free to spend as they wish.
In the weeks following protests over the k–ling of George Floyd in Minneapolis, council members cut the LAPD by $150 million, taking the force down to 9,757 — its lowest level since 2008. If the latest proposal is adopted, department staffing would, at minimum, fall below 9,000.
Police Chief Michel Moore broached the possibility of LAPD layoffs earlier this week, saying such a move would be “devastating” for public safety. Homicides so far this have reached their highest point in a decade and the number of shooting victims is up 40%, Moore said.
The prospect of layoffs for police officers has been raised at City Hall before in recent years but failed to materialize. In 2012, while arguing in favor of a half-cent sales tax measure to support the city budget, Police Chief Charlie Beck warned that a failure to approve the increase would probably result in the layoffs of 200 officers.
Voters rejected the measure, but those public safety job cuts did not occur.

Walmart Confirms 1,200 Layoffs as Part of E-Commerce Reorganization
All Work – And Now Play: Thorogood Launches Its Infinity FD Outdoor Collection
Walmart has confirmed the layoffs of more than a thousand workers as part of a previously announced reorganization of its business.
According to Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notifications filed in Arkansas and New Jersey, 1,241 roles at the big-box chain will be eliminated. The company’s headquarters are based in Bentonville, Ark., while the offices for its Jet.com subsidiary are located in Hoboken, N.J.
In an email to FN, Walmart said the job cuts are intended to boost its omnichannel operations. Back in July, it revealed plans to undergo a restructuring of its business in the United States by consolidating divisions and getting rid of some managerial positions.
“As a part of taking those difficult steps, some office associates are affected if they are unable to find a different role with the company,” spokesperson Anne Hatfield said.
The changes come amid Walmart’s ongoing effort to consolidate its brick-and-mortar and e-commerce operations, as well as boost its U.S.-based online business, which recorded a 79% spike in the third quarter. Unlike other retailers, which have grappled with months-long store closures and a decline in consumer discretionary spending, Walmart saw heightened demand during the coronavirus pandemic as panicked shoppers loaded up on household goods and other essentials.
The influx of shoppers has led Walmart to hire by the masses at a time when a record number of jobs are being shed elsewhere. Since March, when the COVID-19 outbreak took hold in the U.S., the company has employed more than 500,000 new associates across its stores and supply chain. It also made plans to hire another 20,000 people for seasonal roles at its e-commerce fulfillment centers ahead of the holiday shopping season.

Northern Nevada military contractor warns of layoffs
Two employers with operations in northern Nevada have filed layoff notices with the state.
Two employers with operations in northern Nevada have filed layoff notices with the state.
DynCorp International, a private American military contractor, said it has not been awarded the new contract supporting the Naval Air Warfighting Development Center in Fallon. As a result, the company said more than 250 employees associated with the NAWDC contract will be laid off by the end of January.
In early January, the U.S. Navy awarded DynCorp International with a contract extension of $21.9 million. The center houses the famous “Top Gun” program. “Employment may end sooner based on direction from our customer the U.S. Navy,” the company said in its Nov. 30, 2020 letter to the state Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation.
Representatives for DynCorp did not respond Wednesday to a request for comment.
The notices were filed under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, which is meant to ensure employees have notice before significant layoffs so they have time to find work elsewhere.
Sodexo, a food service provider, said its 65 employees at the University of Nevada, Reno, were placed on temporary layoff status in March and it will continue that status for more than six months.
“The temporary layoffs may continue through February 2021 based on modifications of the academic calendar resuming,” according to Sodexo’s Nov. 9, 2020 letter to DETR.
A spokesperson for Sodexo told the Review-Journal that “wherever possible,” the company reassigns staff to other open Sodexo sites like grocery stores or warehouses that need extra help.
“We are utilizing a limited number of our University of Nevada, Reno team members to support catering efforts at the school and sporting events. When COVID regulations permit larger numbers of people in gatherings, we anticipate all our team members will be able to return to work,” the spokesperson said.
The layoffs come as new jobless claims for state unemployment benefits held steady last week from the prior week. DETR said on Tuesday that 15,419 new claims had been filed for the Unemployment Insurance and Pandemic Unemployment Assistance programs.
