401k
Would have been nice getting our 401k match quarterly as we could have taken advantage of this runup in stock prices. Thanks Chuckles the Clown
Employee survey results are dismal
Especially the parts of being proud to work for Wells, Wells is a good place to work, and we are willing to put in a great deal to make Wells succeed. All those have tanked. Who would have thought sending jobs overseas, making people sit in an... — read more

401K match: Stinks that we won't get to enjoy the stock spread
Capitalism sure loves layoffs. If current WF stock price above 49 holds (or improves) until 401K match, that would svck. Because we all know we'd be gifted shares at a high and, when selling off in droves, it would be at a low (would be a loss of... — read more
stock price
While I'm happy to see our stock price bearing $50, I'm a little bummed it couldn't stay low until after the 401k match
Legality of Location/Hub Strategy
Here is my thing with the location/hub strategy and the displacements that have and will occur. Wells is an employment at will company which means they can do whatever they want within the limitations of law. The location strategy falls within that... — read more
How management is tracking RTO
We are a small team with no two members working from the same city. Can’t collaborate with anyone even when I go to the office. Curious to know how management is taking RTO mandates?

Can you taste it?
Just a few days till 12/15 when you secure what may be your last 401k match. Invest it wisely. 2024 gonna be nuts, the company is already downsizing but when you add economic hurdles onto it, many gonna be axed.
A couple tech areas had displacements today.
Long-term remote employees who weren't near hubs.
Independent Risk Management (when?)
When will IRM begin to chip in with displacements? I keep hearing IRM risk people are somewhat protected, due to RCSA, MRA and consent order activities. Should I try and get a job within IRM to keep employed?
What’s going on in IAM??
Just curious if anyone has heard anything in identity and access management as far as layoffs or any rumors ?? it’s been really quiett… do we have enough mix of Indians and US employees??

Hub location
Quick question…if you are informed that you are being impacted are you given the option to relocate or do they just lay you off.

I don't know how a CEO could be more embarrassing
To meet expectations, you either increase revenue or cut expenses. There is no other option. Growing revenue requires the cap to be removed. Charlie is wholly (and obviously) incapable of doing that. So Charlie's ONLY play is to cut. That is why he... — read more

Year end freeze
Since the year freeze starts this Thursday what are your plans? As this time every year with the year end freeze we will probably be twirling our thumbs as there is not much work we can do.

401k withdrawal
Ok idk why I’m asking here but I am. If I cash out my whole 401k will the company still do the annual match?
Does this happen at other companies?
My boss continues to tell us that management watches our card swipes but my boss continues to come in only about half the time while the team comes in nearly all of the time. What gives?
Is there an end point to this EFFICIENCY?
Will Jamie's protege ever stop with the layoffs?
