Thread regarding Wells Fargo & Co. layoffs

Wells Fargo is a process he-l

WF is a broken mess. Layoffs have made teams short handed. Micromanagement has taken over. Your manager has to report what his team has completed each week so it can be put on a PowerPoint deck looking for where more employees can be laid off. So your manager wants to see something he/she can put down to help keep the chainsaw from taking out some full time employees.

I might have one task I need to complete. That task may take engaging 3-4 different teams, each with their own intake, operating with different SLAs and have differing levels of backlog in their queue. Finding their formal intake requires a lot of time of research because there isn’t a standardized method of intake for each team.

Team 1, may need sign off or some info from team 2 before they can proceed. Team 2 might not be able to respond for weeks. Team 3 may need tasks from other teams they have to reach out to for engagement.

Wells Fargo is a process he-l.

Bumping this up, found here: @1myj+1t7Wrv2E. Good that nobody among the upper mgmt never tried to do anything about it, but they are compensated in millions.

This is nothing new really. I wonder how we manage to get anything done. If leaders in the company want to address costs, they should start with addressing how utterly ridiculous it is to get anything done.

This process above sounds a LOT like something I am involved in rn. Can't move to step 2 without step 1 being done, and that could take a week to get done. Then other teams get upset when nothing is happening or moving forward.

Yes, as an organization we spend an incredible amount of time talking about what we do, rather than doing it.

Hasn't Sal convinced HY to add the AI module to Service Now? This should take care of all of your problems....
