Thread regarding Wells Fargo & Co. layoffs

Wells Fargo Interview

Hello, does anybody know the target compensation for Wells Fargo Control Director position (base, bonus) in Charlotte? I have an upcoming interview, but not sure if worth pursuing. Would this position be safe from layoffs due to the focus on risk, compliance, controls? Thanks!

Run, don't walk, away. Nothing is safe from layoffs, the culture is bad. Not a good time to join the bank. Systems don't work, processes get recalibrated every 6 months to a year, people don't cooperate. You can't just evaluate the salary here, look at all the other things you'll need to deal with that don't seem visible at first. Peruse this board.

If you thrive on chaos and being mentally squeezed until your eyes are popping out of your head, then I say Go For It!

@1brj. After COVID, a lot of people found out about things they could live without, assuming their family was left intact.

Hence the great resignation.

No, but I know the compensation for the CEO job. I know a ton of people in the company more qualified for that one than the current occupant.

I work with Control in my LOB and they have been increasing the staff and processes there dramatically in the last 6 months to a year. Adding several new layers of audit and validation. With all of the identified risk that needs to be solved, you would expect the role to be safe. But, with all of the excess layers that have been added, I think they'll have to trim some once they figure out which ones are working and which ones aren't. Interesting to note that some of the new people in that role are overseas and don't understand the business but they are expected to audit the processes.

Your soul, your personal life and your left arm is what you give up! No one is protected from layoffs. Run just look elsewhere.

The reason people don't "check Glassdoor" is because Glassdoor is highly inaccurate. Additionally this is a director level position so very few would even have this information...this and blind is the right place to check...be nice or sc--w off.

Quick Tip - When they ask how much pay you expect to earn - tell them at least half of it...

This place has about 4 times the Risk staff that most banks do. They torture the rest of us with their red tape and bull sh-t.

I call bs in this one. The recruiter typically will tell you the range for the position and this is buttoned up upon offer of employment. No such thing as "safe from layoffs". At will. Same rules apply.
