Someone who says EVP posted on another similar thread that all middle management jobs are moving to India by Q2 of next year. What do you think?

It is for tech, or maybe we just know how to use it. Search for location strategy. You will see the 2nd or 3rd result is a teamworks post by Tali. This includes a pdf of tech locations.

A few results after the one for tech and I can see Auto is moving from six to three hubs (all are listed), so i’m pretty sure if i cared enough i could search out other lob’s as well.

@1ofu

The formal list of hubs is NOT on Teamworks.

That is a reason why everyone is confused and keeps asking. CS loves increasing frustration and pain.

Not all remote is being laid off. Remote work is not going away 100%. There will always be exceptions.

@1mrv+1oNQyHeM Why would Wells Fargo approve a medical accommodation only to displace employees for having an approved accommodation in place? Where are you getting your information?

Emptying space for the hundreds of thousands of Venezuelan "immigrants" crossing the border with guaranteed work visa's. Remember Venezuela was one of the richest countries until a Socialist took over and destroyed their economy in less than 4 years. They are educated and ready to work......but entering our country through the back door - incentivized by the current president

Once they are finished with operation project location. Laying off people who are not near a WF campus/center and remote. Jobs will open at WF (There's several openings already) for those near a WF campus/Tower. You have to commit to a hybrid for in the office full time.

There seems to be a misconception on this site that all mass layoffs will have a WARN notice available to the public. Not true. The 60 day notice period (90 day in NY) is given because of the WARN act and satisfies the requirement. There have been mass layoffs conducted every Tuesday after payday for awhile now.

There was an article posted just last week with the CFO saying Wells has reduced staff of over 40k people since mid 2020 and more cuts are coming. That tells you that there have been consistent cuts happening for some time and they confirmed it will continue. There will be cuts on 10/3, 10/17 and 10/31 next month.

From the article: "We continue to believe we’ve got a lot more to do to make the company as efficient as it should be,” Santomassimo told those attending the Barclays Global Financial Services Conference this week. He noted that Wells Fargo has cut almost 40,000 jobs over the last couple of years, lowering headcount every quarter since mid-2020."

There are SO many remote employees in/near hubs. Interested to see their fate compare to those in-office folks not near a hub. Fair, much?

Remote in Charlotte and I feel so guilty for being near a hub when my non-hub colleagues (who are stellar) will be laid off soon. But I have an accommodation for now.

We know that past behavior is an indicator of actions likely to be taken by Hudson Yards. As such we'll likely see 500-1000 people laid off next Tuesday. As you're being led out of the building with your cardboard box full of acrylic cubes and recog banners, you'll be whining "but...but...I licked their boots and supported the narrative! Why are they doing this to me..."
