This recent lay offs and sending dedicated employees jobs to India! Not kidding ! A specialized job that will never translate in India. Not going to be successful whatsoever. Wells Fargo short term saving a dime causes so much negativity towards the company! If you can spent 500 Million to build in Texas you can afford to not lay off employees and send their jobs to India. Wells Fargo started interviewing for India almost immediately and if you think having Masters Degrees in India will cause these specialized jobs to not get lost in Translation, you are sadly mistaken. Give me a break! Cutting Mortgage commissions is your way of motivation again which is a terrible move! How about giving less to charities and KEEP your Northwest employees! Terrible move Wells Fargo! People wanting to move their money already! Your strategy is an awful one! When sending jobs to India does to your reputation is not positive. You will displace long term employees who are hard workings and many veterans to send their jobs to India! What does they say about how you CARE about your employees?

Not doing the survey… I have not seen any improvements in management come out of these surveys. This is another joke like the rest… check the box exercise…

  • Manager sabotaged me at Year End by inserting non truths in the review that were never mentioned during the year, much less documented.
  • Ex Manager scr----wed me out of my raise when I left the old team.
  • Lots of abuse & sabotage by workers, including job hoarding.
  • Hard work not rewarded. Just invites sabotage.
  • Management turns a blind eye to harass--nt.
  • Honesty is punished. Manipulation & subterfuge is rewarded.
  • 401K match at YE only is a joke.
  • Adios

I put in my comments that we need to make pronouns mandatory on both business cards and email signatures.

Our rural clientele will love that.

I look forward to the results. "We listened to you! You stated you are proud of the company's commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, so we're going to invest more in these programs!"

Will not complete. Finally figured out that not completing the survey resounds more than completing it and putting comments.

Just keep doing coding which is above my pay grade, self taught to not get fired or displaced, only get paid 80k but others on team didn’t get a board to do coding, got fired!

I just think it’s really sad that I learn coding and I can do it really good, but they won’t pay me the same as others!

Most coders get $120k, and I’m getting $80k.

This year, i didn't focus on RTO since I've been fighting that fight hard for years, and it's clear that WF will only be increasing in-office time requirements if anything changes at all. I focused on the major problems within my department instead, like upper management's unwillingness or inability to try anything new to improve how we work, not having the resources we need to do our jobs, etc. I left a lot of comments. I think i talked about the severe, chronic understaffing and how production is being prioritized over risk. I'm making close to $100k in my role and yet i feel like I'm working an entry-level grunt job. I mentioned that i tried to call the ethicsline about this major departmental problem and found that experience to be beyond useless and invalidating. I'm being laid off next year, but i really tried to not let that color how i responded to the survey.

I told my manager that I’m not completing it this year. I was brutally honest last year and it fell on deaf ears with Senior management. I know I wasn’t alone in the comments I wrote. I’m not wasting my time again. Love my manager, but everyone higher than my manager are a train wreck.

I typed in the same thing I type every year since 2019. Nothing ever improves so my comments are always the same.

I wrote:
"1) RTO is simply for accounting purposes so they can classify more expenses as operating expenses.

  1. Shipping risk oversight overseas is not a good idea.
  2. Ranked reviews are id--tic and only lead to good people leaving, thus lowering the quality of the average worker.
  3. No one believes this is anonymous. Come find me since you know who I am."

No top performers left where I am. The ones who know the most about the systems are the ones do not want to lose their jobs. All empty threats.

Answered the survey part honestly, my manager is good, so gave them good numbers. The higher ups, eh not so much.

And in the comments, put in RTO lowers moral, productivity, etc. And that all it will take is one bank to decide it does want to start poaching employees from others and trend will again reverse so any short term Corp benefits will be more then offset if they continue to fight the long term inevitable.

If they ding me for that..ehh, eff them.

The only question that mattered to upper management was the last question, are you thinking of quitting. The rest were there for obfuscation. They want to know layoff requirements for next year to increase profits and buy back more stock.

I gave them specific suggestions about issues many of us experience: no comms, manual processes, and not investing in tech. Most of it is stuff already reported to management and Loudspeaker. Maybe nothing will happen, but at least I tried. And I’ll find something else if they push me out.

It’s not anonymous so I clicked through all the questions didn’t answer anything and just clicked submit. It’s not going to do any good to put comments on there because they aren’t gonna do anything with it.
