I recently signed an offer for the Technology internship at Wells Fargo but after hearing about the unfortunate situation of the layoffs I'm wondering if they'll go for the interns next, what do you think?

Heard from a Control Exec recently that the whole control org is overstaffed and there will be a 30% reduction in the next 2 years. Anyone have additional insight into this?

It's become a Wells Fargo thing to constantly say "right?!", either mid-sentence, and/or at the end of most sentences. Seems to be mostly upper Midwest employees doing this. I guess parents hear their teenagers talk like this and eventually start... — read more

Is this true? Please share your experiences.

so, migrated to VDI and noticed that edge thinks I am in California and I am not so I assume thats where the cloud servers are. How does WF know where I am logging in from if using VDI?

Serious question, why are they still asking new hires to attest to their status? It's over, mandates are dead and only the soon to be sued into oblivion aren't aware of that, so what difference does it make? Is it so they can charge the vaccinated... — read more

Where is free basic Long-Term Disability 50%? Is it gone forever?

What's the reason? People are lethargic, there is no engagement, etc. I think everyone just gave up. Working from home does not help, we are all removed from each other.

I was the laid off today after working at wells for 6 years! I got the call today , then 5 minutes later my manager has a meeting with the rest of my department letting them know!

Stripe just laid off 14% of the total headcount

Hiring freeze is real

So far... "Ather, what's your group called again? Strategy, Digital, something?" "We have some other folks here who's names I can't pronounce" Can't wait to hear how the rest of this unfolds!

Think we can get Chuckles to answer this question? "We noticed that there is a $10,000 bonus to employees who refer outside candidates who then get the role. Would it be in Wells Fargo's benefit to instead lift the RTO policy that has caused this... — read more

While we sit around wondering if we'll be fired next, NOW IS THE TIME to PULL YOUR MONEY OUT OF WF and put it ANYWHERE ELSE. It's the best we can do while we wait to see if it's our time or not. If you haven't done so already, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND... — read more 

Dangling a $10,000 referral bonus for the referrer if they refer "outside talent" to WFC. May as well just tell all existing employees to eff off and die. This management team is terrible.

Saw a posting for an analytics consultant position that says it’s 100% remote… are some teams still getting exceptions or will this be one of those bait and switch situations where it would eventually turn into a hybrid job?

We are now required 5 hours mandatory OT and “encouraged” to work Veterans Day and Thanksgiving! We aren’t that busy but are supposed to do it anyway. Waste of funds and no way in he-l am I working on holidays.

Did anyone listen to the HR town hall today. The survey results stated today were the lowest in a very long time. Keep up the RTO initiative everyone. I hope our voices are being heard.
