How is that fair ?

We remote workers are not destroyers of the company; we are liberators of the company. The point is that working remote, for lack of a better word, is good. Working remote is right. Working remote works. Working remote clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Working remote, in all of its forms, working remote for life, for money, for love, knowledge, has marked the upward surge of mankind. And working remote, will not only save Wells Fargo & Company, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA.

I feel I should be excused from RTO because some of the more fit honeys in my office having gotten thicc since COVID. That isn't fair to me - I like them slender.
Working remote is good!
Everyone forgets the emails that came out in early ‘24. It takes time to do it but it will be done by end of 27 and likely a lot sooner.
Because they can be trusted to get their work done while remote. You? Perhaps not so much...
When executives do stupid sh-t, people will make a mockery of it. It's inevitable, but also easily avoided. They asked for this.
As the great Ron White said … ‘ I was working in the office and threw me into remote when the office was closed’
Amen. Get these pikers out!
Half the people I know with an accommodation, it is for something ridiculous like “anxiety”. CIC is filled with special accommodation “don’t sit here signs” good lord how do these people function in society?!
The remote headcount literally goes down every single day. HY despises these people because they make execs look like fools. Can't have that. 😐
Nailed it. I was WFH long before COVID and now am forced to hybrid for no benefit. Bless every single fully remote employee. Their existence saves the company money and every single day they work they prove what a farce RTO is.
I was hired as a remote employee over a decade ago and have stepped in a Wells office one time, the day I was hired to fill out my I-9 form. If you were in an office prior to Covid, quit whining and go back. You know what you signed up for. Some of us signed up for remote work and should stay that way. I'm resigning in early April, so it doesn't matter to me any more. WF has become a toxic dump and most of these posts prove it. Enjoy!
Don't be hatin'. I look fly AF with my Malibu private beach poppin' in the background on my calls.

One thing this bank has taught me --- life isn't fair. There is no sense of integrity or fairness at this bank. If you think this bank is fair you will be blindsided.
Okay. I know people think that those that return without duress are jealous of those that don’t. However, those that are going into the office have to pay for gas, lunch, time in traffic, parking, cleaners and so on. I just think those that want to work from home in a hub location should be able to but their pay should reflect less then the equivalent who goes to the office and doesn’t whine about it.
You won’t find a full time remote anywhere else. If they offer it they will pay you less which is a benefit to the company
they are working on it.
I think everyone should work from home. That will save gas money, will save the wasted travel time, will remove the air pollution. WFH is the most efficient way.
Being a boomer has nothing to do with it. I am a boomer and I love working from home.
OP is jealous. 😂🤣
What's wrong with working from home? As long as employees complete tasks, complete projects, accomplish many good things, on time, in good quality, I don't see anything wrong with it. I think it's great. All this RTO stuff is nothing but politics by the overpaid executives.
My manager said the only remote jobs that will exist are those due to medical accommodations and critical skills. All others will be let go or assigned to a building. If it's not moving fast enough for you, just give it time.
Check the Wells website, there are a few remote positions
Considering I'm remote and they were looking to end my remote status as early as 2017, as well as they gave me the "you might be impacted later this year" speech in 2024, I have two thoughts on this:
I'm truly irreplaceable. Not in the "I'm that good" sense, cause I know my job could be done by a first-year HS grad, but in the "they can't find anyone who'd agree to work my hours in an office" sense.

They haven't figured out a way to effectively cover me being gone. With a recent reorg this is less relevant than it used to be. I have nearly nothing to do after my latest reorg, so I know it is coming.
Personally speaking, I can't wait for the freedom to not babysit a green status in Teams for a year plus WARN period. I get more and more marketable with each passing quarter due to upskilling outside of work. I'm just waiting for that ticket.
Give them their golden ticket already!

Yep - this exactly. Just waiting!
They tooker jobs.
The question is why is anyone being forced into the office when everyone knows RTO is completely and utterly useless?
FRTO and all the dinosaurs that support it.
Most remote individuals, including myself, are pending layoffs due to 'location strategy'. There are still a ton of remote people waiting for their golden ticket.
Permanent accommodation
Remote & gets to stay remote
Wells Fargo closed and sold the building I worked in before we started working remote for covid. There isn't a site left in the state where I could work. What am I supposed to do? I'm happy to still have a job. Quit complaining.
why does Charlie get $30MM per year base salary and I don't?
We should end non-medical remote working immediately. If I have to come into the office, everyone should be required to come into the office.
