Wells Fargo has thar fake azz Covid Dr. 😂
The after…
I was a 20 year high performer and got the call a few months ago. I quickly landed in a much better place where nobody is talking about RTO, location, hours tracking, or calibrating people to get to a quota of low performers. Bottom line: getting the... — read more
Wells Fargo: A Case Study in Psychological Danger, Not Safety

More mandatory DEI training needed
Heard today that it may no longer be required. There is so much systemic discrimination and racism, I personally believe that much more training is needed and that it needs to be mandatory.
A note from a bottom performer
I was rated “does not meet” for all of 2022, 2023 and my mid-year review for 2024. Until something spectacular happened, I got a “inconsistently meets” for my end of year review for 2024. Wow! I’m doing great, guys! Keep ya heads up, low performers... — read more
Jan 12 'SPOT Award'?
Anyone else in notice period receive a 'spot award' last night (1/23)? Have a feeling I am receiving this and will be sc--wed out of my proper bonus, even though I worked nearly the entire year.
Toxicity is becoming unbearable
The manager has completely lost control over our team, and I don’t think they even care. They allowed office politics and squabbles to reach unacceptable levels. We are still expected to meet targets, and we do - under a lot of pressure. We... — read more

We'll see a 5-day RTO sooner or later
They'll implement it once it becomes another convenient way to drive additional attrition.
What is it like?
What is it like to go into the office & sit next to an empty cubicle that use to be your co-worker & friend that has been laid off? Are you happy it’s not you? Do you keep in touch? Do you care?
Gaslighting displaced non-core site employees is shady AF!
While it really su-ks that we are being displaced as we are in a non-core site (Idaho), WF is stringing the process along by putting us in temporary positions (6months) until we get let go. The only problem is, I would like to just get my severance... — read more

Promotions
When was the last time you heard of someone being promoted without it being blatant nepotism or cronyism?
Bonus Timing
We all know bonuses will hit checks on Feb 14. I’ve seen some posts that the bonus can be pulled back up to the day before it is issued. I don’t think that’s accurate. If giving notice, what date leading up to Feb 14 is your best chance to keep the... — read more
Fake jobs problem

No more room in the office
We are starting to see the impact of not having enough office space for RTO. Wondering if there is any chatter to fix that in New York. I’m only allowed to sit on my floor on a certain side. If they do return to 5 days, what are we going to do? Sit... — read more

Was it actually hard to get a 4 (Consistenly Exceeds) this year?
Was it actually tougher? Or is this just BS given by my manager for giving me a 3. Definitely did 4 level work. I did get a 4 last year.
Does your management provide you actual employee survey reports?
Mine does not. They seem to want to control the message. All they’ve shared is derivative / distilled results on a screen. There’s probably a couple official reports that come out in pdf, for example maybe one with responses / response rates at... — read more
Anti-DEI protests overlook WF
Too cheap to pay the WSJ, but what I did read doesn’t mention WF. Not because our DEI has been rationalized (as if) but rather because we don’t matter. This must frustrate our Napoleonic money-center poseur in Hudson Yards.
