Thread regarding Wells Fargo & Co. layoffs

Is everyone just stuck in a job they hate

Pretty sure only one person in my team enjoys working here and that person is an absolute psychopath everyone else seems miserable but is sticking it out for the money

No one here is more pro-WFH than I am. I said work, not going to a random building for no reason. C'mon man!

@OP
No. You are free to leave at anytime.

@dr it's also exhausting to read (apparent) boomers complaining about how no one wants to work anymore and kids today are too coddled. Clinging to old-fashioned traditions like in-office work when better options exist doesn't really serve anyone.

Both groups need to STFU

@df Do you hear that sound? It's my Copilot muse playing a sad song for you.

Fair. Not talking about the OP, but it is exhausting reading through social media these days where there's a constant stream of kids saying some version of "I don't want to work, I just want to hang out with my friends and go to the beach..." Don't we all? Seems like it goes without saying, but at the same time no one likes whiners.

@ad it's not the content that's getting this guy downvoted, it's the condescension

Even if you manage to avoid layoffs and hang on to your job, you're still left operating in an environment where you have zero job security, you're picking up the slack for people that did get cut, and the company is actively trying to make the working environment more miserable in hopes of avoiding paying their severance obligations. And it's been going on for the better part of a decade with no end on sight.

It's more surprising to run into someone who likes their job at Wells, at this point

I'm stuck, for now. No layoff and not in a position where I can move-- mainly b/c I'm looking to bail on this sh*t show next year.

Have enough FU money that I could bail whenever I want really.

Basically the old saw: you have money and no time or time and no money.

@ax barristas have work life balance. Oh wait... you like money and you like complaining. Wells is the perfect place for you, they pay you and give you something to bi--h about.

I don’t believe you have one person on your team that enjoys working here. Liar!

That's what a job is: something you ordinarily wouldnt do, but for the money. The other thing they call "vacation" or "retirement." I know, adulting is hard. If you are looking for fulfillment, have kids go to church, or join a book club.
