Thread regarding Wells Fargo & Co. layoffs

Return to office - HUB locations

The reasons many businesses want RTO is the localities give the company HUGE tax breaks to have business in their city/state. If they don’t create jobs, etc for their local people those tax breaks can be clawed back. How much of a tax break is WF getting to build in Hudson Yards?

That's what they want you to do, and FHY. Go swipe a badge every once in a while, but quiet quit. Everyone wins. They get to believe they are tormenting you like they want, your boss doesn't have any noncompliance in their team, and you get to reduce stress, use their S'er, take a nap in a huddle room, and then home to work as usual. Don't forget to run errands on the way home either. Definitely important. FRTO, FHY, FCS.

I have been remote for 15 years. Now being told have to go back in the office. Will get not displacement package because in hub. Will be taking early retirement when they force me to go back in office. This is not fair for people that were designated remote for many years.

The only problem with your theory is that WF is selling, breaking leases, and bailing on TONS of properties across the nation. If it was all about propping up a soon to fail economy, they would have implemented RTO, but kept the offices open. At the end of the day we might get tax benes from NY, NC, AZ, and TX, but that's small potatoes compared to the previous property portfolio. Based on everything we know, I believe all HY policies around about driving voluntary resignations. Any other benefits is secondary.

OMFG. The IQ on this site is so low. You are in office because you are being used. First, due to corporate real estate underwritten by Wells Fargo. You are buying lunch keeping their clients from defaulting. Second it’s a federal and state tax break or other requirements. Third, it’s for political reasons.

guess what, the terms of your employment changed. whether you like it or not and you agree to this when you were hired, we all do. the same rules that allow you to quit without notice are the same that allow them to change your employment. there are also plenty of people that were hired at a specific location only for that location to be changed. get over it and if your not happy do something about it like find a new remote job.

@cyf+1rDf2Q5c, not everyone was working in the office before 2020. Thousands of Wells Fargo employees had been originally hired as a 100% remote employee. Many of us in our department used to be 100% remote before 2020.

Not at all true. Tens of thousands were remote before 2020.

Prior to 2020 everyone was in the office, why not just shut your crack and go back in?

Nah ..really has nothing to do with that. Look at closing downtown Des Moines buildings. We're actually forfeiting tax incentives.

They really do just want people to come in, there is no hidden reason behind it.

More likely because it's a JPM hub and Shart wants to hire more bros.

RTO is to force you to quit so they don't have to give severance.

Columbus was made a hub because the city gave Wells Fargo tax breaks last year to create a hub.

It's not really a tax break thing. It's a downsize everyone thing.
