tick, tock, tick tock...

Fired in March along with the other tenured people for various reasons. Dept lay offs in August so you miss your 20 years of severance.

I won’t miss people referring to co-workers as their “Wells Fargo family.” Really fake. It went on for years. These people are not my family nor would I ever want them to be.

I only miss the cleaning person i saw coming out of the bathrooms holding a towel and then use that towel to wipe down the counters in the break area.

One of the funniest things I’ve read in a long time (and so true). Whomever posted this please keep them coming !

A few good friends, but they’ll be gone TOO

Not being team members anymore......just lowly employees!

Lots of prior Lowe’s employees here. Not working out well.

• Lazy, unqualified, snarky, egotistical, demeaning middle managers with no BANKING EXPERIENCE, most likely hired by friends. You worked at Lowes as a Junior PM? Here, go be a middle manager of a Risk and Regulatory team in Corporate Model Risk. What could go wrong.

I got fired because my manager didn't like me. Best thing that ever happened to me! My stress level went down immensely folks. I found another bank job immediately and get paid more! So sorry for those stuck. I know the feeling. Don't give up and move on if you can!

I think you mean things you won't miss, but yeah, haha.

1. The tech and access people that tell us they'll get to our request in '3-5 business days' when we need it NOW and there's no way to escalate.

2. The people that review and assign job postings that take over a month to get it done even during a hiring freeze.

3. RTO defenders.

4. Anyone that ever said "the firm", and didn't mean the book/movie.

5. Anyone that ever announced a change negatively impacting employees with the first justification being "to align with our competitors / industry norms..."

6. The worthless two faced POSs in CPG that routinely brag to the execs about shutting down buildings and getting people termed, while feeding their victims lies about why it's all happening.

7. All the employees in Hudson Yards.

8. The guy that decided biweekly paydays was better than bimonthly.

9. The corporate liars that say they'd love to retain people they are downsizing, while also doing everything possible to ensure that those poor people have no chance of actually being selected for any job.

10. Whoever came up with "Better Together" as a smoke screen while firing our friends and shipping jobs 10,000 miles away.

Things I will miss? Huh, can’t thing of anything.

Don’t forget the 15 digit password that you inevitably mistype 3 times as your curse your very existence. I’ve resorted to never locking my computer because I can’t stand having to retype it multiple times because of my 3 minute bathroom break. Seems like effective risk management - make people want to never lock their computers…

Hard to believe wfc would be doing something as illegal as using WhatsApp.

Priceless!

Neighborhood seating when there are not enough seats and being told coming in earlier is the solution

I will miss the hysterical meetings with stuffy old WFC execs trying to clarify the difference between mari--ana stocks and hemp stocks.

Wait, we have scruffy old execs? Charlie isn't that old.

The annual survey that is mandatory to take. And the results are either a) not shared b) used as a stick against your department or c) bad but leadership claims they are great

The constant calls from Express Scripts telling me all the money I can save by having them mail me my prescriptions. And me telling them each and every time that I'm not interested. One guy even insisted on telling me what I would save - it was around $2. Sorry not interested in not getting my meds on time to save $2.

Happy Birthday Holly! And the all the people who have not yet learned to not choose "reply all" when they want to say, "take me off this list."

Love this post. I got axed in March. 5 months later and I miss nothing in this sh&thole!!!!!

@rzh+1o8cxb6y
"one must write them down to remember them if you don't use a password app. And dollars to doughnuts password apps are against policy!"

For many years now Password Safe is the approved password repository app at Wells Fargo.

I will miss Columbus Day and Veterans Day off. Other than that, I’ll never look back.

Me? I will miss the inconsistencies between entering my employee information on various Wells Fargo platforms and then having to guess why it is rejecting. (And some will auto-correct to proper format for me, others will not)

My phone number on
Platform A: (111) 111-1111
Platform B: 111- 111- 1111
Platform C: 111 111-1111
Platform D: 111 111 1111
Platform E: 1111111111

Now your name - Aggh 😩!!

"You haven't seen the new password requirement...you can't have any words in them."

Is this for real? Because if so it will have gotten so far one must write them down to remember them if you don't use a password app. And dollars to doughnuts password apps are against policy!

Hub location list is like a shell game in each line of business.

Oh, the clock batteries...ha

You haven't seen the new password requirement...you can't have any words in them.

Love it

Not getting my 401K match if I worked all year but my last day happens to fall on December 14th.

Endless Lifecare "benefits" emails that offer "deals" that you could easily get in the open market (usually you can get much bettercdeals elsewhere)....and all their endless, common sense drivel about mental health and life improvements when WF is doing everything to destroy employees' psyches.

Also WF's precious quarter point loan discount on mortgage for employees, when their rates are nowhere near competitive.

VDI nightmare (enough said).

Employees looking forward to fire drills to break up their monotonous day.

Audit telling you about a deliverable at 3PM on a Friday that is due 8AM on Monday.

The ice machine - I gag every time I use it.

Stamps and Service now change controls

FYI - the compliance classes are mandatory for all banking employees, WF or not. This is a federal requirement.

Otherwise, yep.

You nailed it! Awesome
