I get about 700 emails a day now due to distro lists. Indians for some reason love to add distro lists for even the most minor task. One guy emailed 400 people the other day asking a python coding question a kid in middle school would know. That... — read more

The leadership at this place is absolutely terrible
I have zero confidence in anyone above me, and it's clear they have no idea how to support or lead a team.
Happy Friday!
How many poor soul being axed on next Tuesday?
PTO scheduled during notice period?
When placed on 60 day notice does the system cancel out all pending PTO scheduled after that period? Wouldn't want my PTO deducted when on a 60 day non work.

What is your prediction for the first Tuesday in July? I’m thinking massive.

Retail Incentive Plan

Why are so many employees financially illiterate?
Seeing random posts that may be trolls, but seriously afraid these are actual employees. You work for a financial institution! Learn about money and how it can work for you!
Notice Period
Sounds like most people that are given their notice get to leave immediately. Any one else made to stay 3 weeks into their 60 day notice? This is brutal and torture! Sorry Just venting! Basically twiddling my thumbs with no work to do as it’s all... — read more
Wells Fargo execs only know how to make money for themselves
And that's all they're interested in. It's as simple as that. They couldn't care less about you.

Finally received a remote job offer
After two years of coffee badging, I finally landed a fully remote role. No more commuting just to warm a chair and nod through meetings I could’ve taken from home. It feels good to finally work for a company that respects time and common sense. FRTO — read more

Report to EEOC if your boss bullies you
This place is a sweatshop.
Laid off still no job
Laid off last year, still searching for new job. Very frustrating.
The eCard from BE
Dear BE, you can take your eCard and shove it up your rear end. If you had such gratitude for all of your employees, you wouldn’t sell us all out to India. You are completely tone deaf and really could care less for your employees. For Godsakes, you... — read more
CS Town Hall
This town hall was an exposure to just how bad cyber security is. The three main takeaways from the town hall are: Use artificial intelligence and less engineers/technical people. By the end of this year and forcing Azure MFA on all employees even... — read more

We-ponized Performance Reviews
“It’s going to be harder to find a job out there, so buckle down and take what we give you.” And now they’re redefining “meets expectations” as a difficult bar, while offering: • No clarity • No support • No trust • And an org that has five... — read more
Lucky Mainframe Developers
Heard from a friend that mainframe developers are exempt from relocation strategy. Lucky the few of them left in the skill set.
Goodbye WF
After 17 long years, I was finally laid off. It's bittersweet. On the one hand, no one wants to join the unemployment line. On the other, it's a huge weight off my shoulders to not have to dread coming to the toxic hellhole day in and day out. ... — read more
What’s happening at Wells?
I am no longer with Wells so curious, what’s going on? It seems like these quiet, annoying layoffs are persistently happening all year round at small numbers to fly under the radar so that the media doesn’t notice. Sneaky, but very successful! But... — read more

Why does Des Moines have such miserable people?
Setting aside the occasional exception, Des Moines has a remarkable number of people that are miserable to deal with. Three in particular are also morbidly obese. I really don't think that's a coincidence. Des Moines isn't a go-forward location, is... — read more
Trimming LOBs and then how soon?
We have lost lines of business in parts of the country due to CS and his merry hatchet. How soon until WF can be absorbed by another bank? How many more heads and/or LOBs?
Today’s Layoffs
Post it here
Top heavy controls
Toooooo many M6s and M5s under head of controls. This whole layer can go with zero impact on controls. Will save the company millions of dollars too.
HIGHLY Overpaid CEO and Execs
Want to really be upset? Check out what Charlie and his directs made last year in the annual report. It’s disgusting!! 🤮 Guess thats why the mandatory 20% below meets now as they need to draw from somewhere to continue to give multi million dollar... — read more
PTSD
They layoff all our American friends and coworkers and they gleefully show a ppt slides of new hire names, listing about 50 Indian names hired for the month... They wonder why everyone is silent and checked out. This place su-ks a-s.
Is Sioux Falls going away?
