Retributive justice for Saul Van Beurden

Typical gutless, disconnected non-caring, mechanical, uninformed Wells Fargo management strategy. The Manila team had some very sharp IT resources and will be missed. The impact of their displacement will be great.

I’ve worked at WFB many years and have never seen morale lower. Now they are going to k–l what is left by disrupting people's lives and forcing them to go into a location. They will get less productivity than ever before. I hope Saul Van Beurden is fired soon from the backlash that is inevitable.

We were called into a meeting for the “announcement” on 2/12 where a very mechanical and scripted statement (by a manager who has proved their worthlessness many times over the years yet still remains) was read then we were repeatedly told not to discuss the situation with other teammates and there would be no time for questions. Really??

They preach "Code of ethics" diversity and doing what’s right by mandatory training yet bestow disruption and angst to their employees on a daily basis.

The only chance of this getting reversed is if people voice their opinion and do not remain silent!! Write letters to the board of directors, send emails, use social media, call the news stations. MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD!!

I find it interesting after his latest “ask me anything” call, in which he stated IT should be “grateful” to only have to come in three days a week and to “quit complaining”, that two days later RTO was postponed “indefinitely”. This isn’t the first time he has been directly contradicted by by the board within days. If past events prove to be the best predictor of future behavior, his star is waning.

I don't think Saul is spearheading RTO at Wells anymore. Now the reigns are securely in Charlie's hands and his 'heavy' Scott Powell is cracking the whip for him. The RTO strategy at this point is driven by agendas that have nothing to do with RTO or any perceived benefits it would have brought to the business. It's happening by force in so many large companies at once... I'm not great at coming up with conspiracy theories, but I can see when something doesn't make sense at face value and clearly has something else behind it.

Agree - Location Strategy was bad idea on Feb 12, 2020 but after pandemic has spread it is sheer incompetence and folly to cling to this – let's just call it "Saul's Folly".

It's time to call out Saul Van Beurden for this "Location Strategy" that ignores the pandemic and world we now live in:

1) email the the Board of Directors - boardcommunications@wellsfargo.com

2) report this incompetent and unethical conduct to EthicsLine: https://www.tnwgrc.com/wellsfargo/

Saul Van Beurden's inconsistent and contradictory messaging is unethical conduct. It is morally bankrupt, misleading and rapidly destroying morale during a crisis.

His Location Strategy is detrimental and ignores pandemic threat. It has caused severe harm already by creating Reputational, Financial, Operational and Legal Risks for Wells Fargo.

Sending the Board a communication is a great idea. Thanks for posting that idea. I am going to send a communication to them stating my feelings and thoughts as an impacted team member. But I'm not going to be anonymous. I am not afraid of Wells Fargo. I will let them know that fear and insecurity pervades the culture of Technology at Wells Fargo and that this does not serve any of the stakeholders well. I will not give in to fear especially for an IT job that can be had pretty much anywhere.

I'm doing it and will spread the word. Thanks for posting

@qjl+13vLsLMF - so much of what was said made me sick to my stomach.
