Abuse at the Chandler office is rampant. Of course, Carrie used to be stationed there. Swine.

Wells Fargo is a criminal organization driven by the corrupt management.

@dxx+1shb9dlg, what bothers me is that Carrie T was never held accountable for her actions, never went to prison, and she only got a house arrest. She has no remorse and still got a golden parachute from Wells Fargo. I feel sorry for the employees who lost their jobs and customers who got deceived.

I was definitely the target of this form of abuse.

• - Workplace bullying typically begins when one employee, who is generally insecure
  and/or jealous, is threatened by the competence or demeanor of another
  employee. The bully targets an unsuspecting employee to minimize and/or
  eliminate the perceived threat the employee poses to them. Bullies use persistent
  psychological abuse to control the narrative. They try to convince the employee
  they are incompetent. They try to convince others the employee is incompetent.

For decades, I was consistently rated as a high performer and given more and more responsibility. When one of the senior leaders who had always ensured I had stretch assignments and championed my efforts to improve my skills retired, the insecure manager went full on with this. (The retiring leader managed us both and consistently gave me a better performance review.) I no longer work for this manager, but it took me years to get my reputation back and to start once again to move forward. Easily set back my career 5 years.

@wqc+1shb9dlg sounds like one of those incompetent low-level managers who abuse their staff. This person needs to get fired.

@wqc+1shb9dlg It's actually the HIGH PERFORMING employees that get targeted.

The abuser playbook. There's a pattern to abuse at work. Here’s how it works:

• Workplace bullying typically begins when one employee, who is generally insecure and/or jealous, is threatened by the competence or demeanor of another employee. The bully targets an unsuspecting employee to minimize and/or eliminate the perceived threat the employee poses to them. Bullies use persistent psychological abuse to control the narrative. They try to convince the employee they are incompetent. They try to convince others the employee is incompetent.

• In toxic work environments, when employees report psychologically abusive behavior to the proper workplace authorities, those authorities willfully ignore the complaints. Employers are not liable for psychologically abusive behavior, nor do they want to be. The employer misleads the unsuspecting employee to believe they have a legitimate complaint process to remedy the problem.

• The employer fails to alter the employee's work environment. The employer doesn’t remove the stressor. The emboldened bully continues to harass and abuse the target without consequence or deterrent. The complaint process is unnecessarily prolonged.

• The unsuspecting employee voluntarily leaves, dies, or is fired, succumbing to the silent ki-ler stress of the work environment. There is significant physical, mental, and emotional injury as well as severe economic harm. Game over. The bully wins. Their perceived competition is gone. The employer wins. Their perceived threat of liability is gone. The unsuspecting employee had done nothing to provoke either.

• Trauma upon trauma. When the employee realizes the institutional tampering with their health and livelihood, forcing them off the payroll to avoid liability, trauma upon trauma occurs. The employee further realizes there is no legal recourse for any of it.

Who’s picking up the tab for the long-term health care of thousands of unemployed citizens and basic needs costs? You are: the taxpayer. And you have been for decades.

The abusive work environment was rampant when Carrie T forced employees to lie and create fake customer accounts. If the employees didn't comply, they were punished by Carrie T's leadership. That was the root cause of why Wells Fargo was sanctioned by the federal regulators. However, that problem never went away, the same mentality still exists today.

@wqc+1shb9dlg, actual job performance has nothing to do with abuse. Come to COO, you will experience real dirty politics played by corrupt executives and managers. Many hardworking employees are being thrown under the bus to accommodate the corrupt leadership.

Perfect. No one should ever be held accountable, under any circumstances, for any job performance expectation.

Go socialism!

I was feeding homeless people this weekend at a Catholic charity NGO. I kept thinking that this bank which used to be a "home" is no longer. Instead, this workplace has become more like a fighting ring.
The projects I complete are taken offshore. It used to be fun to mentor new hires as they maintained "our" work. Now I must spend more time maintaining work relationships with ever-changing offshore helpers. Everything is frozen -- so how can I deliver new tech work? What will my bonus be or will it be like last year?
Nothing is "fun" anymore. I am not learning any new tech. My mentees have all left. My management has placed me in this new ring. If I don't fight they threaten to throw me out on the street. This isn't home anymore. Nothing is "fun" anymore.

This is actually a very good step towards protecting employees from psychological abuse by toxic companies like Wells Fargo. We have been being abused for so many years by corrupt management. Remember what happened last year?
