Shart agrees with you. He's a liar and likes to hire liars. You must love him.
Your irrational and ongoing defense of liars suggests you're in that group. But let's just say that we live in magical happy land and we could proceed as you suggest. We fill the lower ranks with nothing but liars, then we fire the current executives and bring in honest ones. How in the world could the company possibly succeed with all the worker bees being liars? We wouldn't, it would be impossible.
I'm suggesting that top to bottom we need to employ people with integrity, you're promoting hiring a bunch of immoral people because well, you have no idea what you're talking about, or you're just a self serving liar yourself. "Great plan". Coincidentally, it's the same as Shart's plan, he just wants different groups to be lying.
@1baz+1tRgvUEa, you are an id--t. Dishonest managers have no rights to hire honest employees.
@1baz+1tRgvUEa, lazy dishonest hiring managers do not deserve honest hard working employees! Get lost!
@1baz+1tRgvUEa, the company needs to replace the dishonest executives and managers first before they even talk about hiring honest employees. Next.
Your assumptions couldn't have missed the mark any more than they have. If I really was some kind of exec, I'd scheme my way into replacing Shart, then I'd fire every exec in Hudson Yards and sell our SQ footage there.
I'm not talking about employees generally. All I'm saying is that it's detrimental to the company to hire liars. If you really are "pro hiring liars, so long as they are entry level" as your posts suggest, here's your cookie. Personally I'd rather the company hire people with integrity, but to each their own.
“Wells Fargo continues to say what its anti-discrimination policies are.
But the jury and the court plainly heard from Wells Fargo’s own witnesses that executives at the highest level of the bank had never even read the policies, much less followed them,”
Christopher Billesdon’s lawyer, L. Michelle Gessner said.
Carrie T should have gone to prison.
@pvs+1tRgvUEa, I say 90% of executives and managers are liars compared to 10% of other employees.
Charlie's friend here.
We are not destroyers of the company. We are liberators of the company. The point is that greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed is right. Greed works. Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Greed, in all of its forms, greed for life, for money, for love, knowledge, has marked the upward surge of mankind. And greed, will not only save Wells Fargo & Company, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA.
@pvs+1tRgvUEa,
Are you one of Charlie's cronies?
...or perhaps you are a close friend of Tolstedt?

I doubt we'll ever get to be known as "the honest bank" by hiring liars, and that applies to all levels of employees from tellers on up.
@wkj+1tRgvUEa, Many hiring managers are uneducated in regulatory compliance areas. I have interviewed with some hiring managers who said very inappropriate things, even illegal. Some of you need to get fired.
@wkj+1tRgvUEa, but the funny things is...., many Wells Fargo executives and managers tend to lie all the time. Also my friends think Wells Fargo is the most dishonest bank in the country since the fake customer account scandal. Maybe not as bad as Wells Fargo, but there are evidences that dishonesty is prevalent in the banking industry. So who are they to judge the candidates for dishonesty? Works both ways.
Exactly. I'm not hiring people that seem to be making an active effort to obscure the truth. Sure, we all try to make a good impression in an interview, but at some point it's the cousin of lies, and I'm not looking to hire liars.
Recruiter: "So why did you leave your last position?"
OP: "My strategic exit allowed my former employer to achieve their cost-cutting goals and boost executive bonuses."
Recruiter: "...so you were laid off?"
OP: "..."
Recruiter: "..."
OP: "Yes."
Recruiter: *makes note that OP was weirdly evasive about answering a basic question & removes from candidate pool *
ummmm... not every company appreciates the WF lingo: strategic? my a$$!!
I have no problem saying it was management business decision to eliminate my position as well as my whole team.
