Thread regarding Wells Fargo & Co. layoffs

Any thoughts on pay range?

I looked at the pay range of lead business execution consultant position in Find Job. It's 96k to 177k if I remember it correctly. This is a very wide range for the same position. Without mid point/ job market reference they can definitely lowball base and promise higher bonus based on performance but there could be 100 reasons why you cannot get full bonus. I am not sure how TVC works in detail but like how is my expectation going to be? Anyone has any insights?

Salary grades is not groundbreaking. Have none of you ever worked for another big financial firm? Most do it this way.

If you looked at the old job families tool, threshold (the min) was usually 70% to 71% of the MRP. The max was typically 129% to 130% of the MRP. So if MRP was 100,000, the threshold was usually about 71,000 and the max was about 129,000.

If he’s a millennial, they taught him the new math which means the bro can’t do simple math. 😂

I’m sure there is a pay range if you know the super secret password. 🙂

Just do some simple math bro. Figure it out based on your current salary range and comp percentage. You should know this. If you make 100K and are at 95K then your comp percentage of target is what?? What area are you in? Area 0,1,2,3 then add or subtract 5 percent per area. It works out based on the salary bottom and threshold. If you have regulator experience add 10 percent. I bet I would figure out your salary within 5K based on the range alone.

Please explain how you are finding pay ranges as the ranges are no longer posted for employees to see.

From what I have seen, WFC does this in order to advertise that they offer competitive salaries. However, the dirty truth is that they rarely if ever pay that top salary in the range.

As always with Wells Fargo, the true facts lie below the surface of embellished misleading or irrelevant information.

Senior does not start at 111, pretty sure that is a mis-post on the recruiters part.

Come on people. The midpoint is still easy to figure out with a little math.

$96k-$177k

The mid point is $136,500.

The real question is now will being at the mid point still hurt future raises?

Interesting, there is a Lead Software Engineer and Senior Software Engineer listed for the same area differential. Both have the same pay range, even though one is a higher level job.

Try reading the entire first sentence. I know, it’s quite lengthy at 15 words.

It's all about WF spending less money.

The lack of midpoint is precisely to give lower offers than in the past. Which means, it's even more on the candidate now to push for a higher salary during the offer period.

But it's a bad idea to low-ball because everyone who's underpaid eventually figures that out. And they understandably leave.

So WF will spend less on comp but have more turnover, which is expensive on multiple fronts.

But WF has always been pennywise, pound-foolish, and this is just another example.
