Thread regarding Wells Fargo & Co. layoffs

Stand up for yourself

Everyone knows that layoffs are coming and the company is restructuring. We also know that WF has no qualms about doing so ethically or unethically. The question is, why aren't we doing everything we can to fight back? The company doesn't care if you get displaced and lose your severance. Trying to play the games leadership makes is only going to hurt everyone in the long run.

Newsflash, you're out of a job. It's no longer a matter of "if" but "when". So you can't save your package or your income here. But what you can do is document everything, practice malicious compliance, and report what you see to your local bureaus/attorney and make the restructuring process as slow and painful for the company as possible. Go to the press and submit anonymous information even.

Because if you got by the mentality of "at least it wasn't me" otherwise, then guess what. You're still going to end up laid off and then come here to complain about how "it's not fair." At least this way it forces leadership to think twice about the battles they pick. And maybe, just maybe it buys you and everyone else some time to get ahead of the curb before they start firing soon instead of complaining constantly, not doing anything about it, and then wonder why things are still toxic here.

@OP
Geezuz, you need to step away from the mirror and stop talking to yourself.

The irony of a troll on a layoff site telling people to quit.

You have the right to start a business and then adjust your staffing levels over time as conditions dictate. So does Wells Fargo.

@a4 if you are unemployable that's a you problem.

@a2 Have you actually looked at the job market lately? Perhaps if someone is independently wealthy, that's an option for those who considered your advice to "just quit". But, it's not for most unless you are 23 years old and just don't give a sh*t. Employees that still maintain a high work ethic, do not do that.
