Coursera
Has anyone been able to successfully get an annual access to Coursera approved for reimbursement? I’m thinking not because there’s no L&D support here anymore, but thought I’d still ask around.

WF exiting WF One and Two in Charlotte
It's going to be a little bit more busy at the CIC. This is a good change IMO. We really shouldn't have anyone working downtown in any city, unless they need to be there for some legitimate business reason. Lease smaller spaces as need and have admin... — read more

Do you guys actually use these titles on your resume?
With all the job title changes a year ago, everyone is an analyst now. Analyst is fine, maybe even Senior Analyst. But then you have Lead Analyst. And if that wasn't enough... Senior Lead Analyst! Lead and Senior Lead completely misrepresent... — read more
Demeaning reps?
Are the accommodations reps aiming to lack empathy and to be perceived as demeaning? This is a serious question. I’ve never been talked to so lowly by another employee in the entire 10+ years I’ve worked here. Anyone else have this experience? — read more

I give all the Execs at Wells a Needs Improvement Rating
Asset cap not lifted, earnings down, employee morale in the gutter, layoffs, stagnant revenues, regulatory scrutiny, etc. Fire them all! The board should clean house!
Why do you care what anyone at Wells Fargo rates you?!
I see all the posts on here about Oh I got meets, exceeds, needs improvement, etc. Why on this earth would anyone care what you get rated by such a shady bank that has paid gazillions in fines for unethical behavior, consumer and employee abuses?!!... — read more
DEI, the disabled, and the bank of doing nothing
