I actually think stories like this will help the Wells Fargo rebrand. Literally every financial institution is required to keep operating so the people can have access to their funds and receive information on their accounts. It’s just when you put the Wells Fargo name on it you’re bound to get clicks. Could you imagine the backlash if these team members weren’t required to come in and people had no access to their accounts or anyone to provide them information? Meanwhile Bank of America hasn’t committed to suspending mortgage payments but where’s that front page story??

Not sure about Mary and all leaders but Charlie actually is set up to report for duty at the employee entrance every morning by video conference from his $18.5 million dream home triplex penthouse fixer-upper with panoramic views overlooking Central Park West.

Those naysayers it's not the point. they should have had freaking BCP systems in place for this not having stuff available for working at home, that's just stupidity. Oh yeah and I'm sure that $600 hazard pay minus taxes is going to be a great windfall for for these type of employees

So sad to read this article describing the continued abuses this corporation feels is their right. If the executives of Wells Fargo believe they are making the decision to continue with the self distancing vs self ISOLATION, then they know more than the world renowned scientists studying this virus. So, a true leader would be on site with the mandatory open operation . Char!ie, Mary and all leaders please report for duty. Please stand at the employee entrance every morning to welcome the workers to your DEATH CAMP. Sorry you do not qualify for the extra pay due your current annual income. Hey, you speak often about the importance of family, why don't you bring your daughter to work day! Char!ie, please sharpen your leadership skills for the sake of mankind not bank account balances. The world is experiencing a Global Pandemic not a natural disaster that we can cleanup when the hurricane passes, in this case, we will not be here to clean up anything. Do you want that blood on your hands? Smart people like you and your direct reports commanding very large salaries, surely have the collective ability to figure out priorities during this crisis. Be brave...disconnect all human contact during this crisis and implement electronic communication only with c!ients during the pandemic. I suggest all U.S. Citizens in leadership positions that are proceeding with business as usual spend a 24 hour shift shadowing our nurses and doctors! Then maybe mankind wil! rise to the top of the Well Fargo priority list. We are all human. Humans make mistakes. LEADERS own their mistakes and find the courage to do the right thing. Stop any person to person contact with your banking businesses during the pandemic! You have a great opportunity to do the right thing! What a gift...embrace it. And I promise your profits from your recent $5 million purchase of Wells stock will be easier on your conscience than it you and yours have blood on your hands. Your soul will survive spending honest money, but your soul will suffer spending I'll gotten gains, or in this case: Blood Money!

These people will ultimately be replaced by robots, digital payments, and self service apps.

The robots won’t complain about their trash bin.

The pandemic will accelerate efforts to this end.

In fairness though, most WF facilities are pretty dirty, the cleaning service is poor and infrequent, and people are gross too.

All banks are requiring this because they must stay open by law. Do you want customers unable to call to make payments, draw on their credit lines, cash checks?
