I have a disability which has worsened since Covid. My coworkers treat me differently because I have FMLA. They discuss my health when I’m not there and when I return to work they ignore me. I’m thinking about seeking legal guidance because it’s a... — read more
Job reposting
Does internal job reposting few days after interview mean the candidate did not get job?
Half of CIB Compliance leadership could vanish and it would have no impact on the program
Can anyone change my mind?
Lack of RTO firings?
Is the lack of RTO firings due to the high potential for lawsuits for the firings being inconsistent? If you're going to fire one employee for no other reason than RTO non-compliance, wouldn't you have to fire every employee that violates RTO in a... — read more

Ending employment
What is the best and safest way to get out of your job? The best time of year/month/day? Anything helps because I can’t take it anymore but want every $ I’m owed. Can you volunteer for a severance package?
Job titles
Anyone else struck at how job titles that have been assigned in the last couple years manage to both be comically wordy and not shed any light on what tasks the person performs? I would understand if maybe the wordiness was successful in specifying... — read more
Collaborate
Will someone please fu----g collaborate with me today? I showered, ate breakfast, got dressed and drove to the office and expect to be treated like a human being today. Remember, you collaborate for others. Do the right thing.
Des Moines Layoff 10/20/2022
Officially there was 1 person laid off in Des Moines on 10/20/2022 according to the WARN notifications. Surprised there weren't more honestly.
The corpo shill is ridiculous.
Empty your 401(k) so that we can prop up the economy! Move into corpo housing so your money goes right back into your employer's pockets! Don't worry about your future, stay a wage slave! Embrace becoming chattel!

Will Wells pay us in raise or bonus or both?
How will Wells help out the employees to tackle the cost of living spike? Will they offer more in percentage raises, or more dollars in bonus or a combination? This HAS to be addressed in the upcoming review period. It is too great to be ignored... — read more
Tech RTO
Sounds like the technology RTO practice is actually reasonable. Come in for important meetings. This came across loud and clear during the last AMA. People in tech should probably thank Saul for supporting his team. I have first hand experience that... — read more
RTO
I only return to the office in the rare occasion when I need to print an Amazon return label or two. Love the convenience of having a printer for my own personal needs. They should include this I. Our benefits package.
Company 401(k)s are overrated. Live large now.
Younger generations should splurge and live large now. I agree with this concept. You think everything’s expensive now, just wait 30 or 40... — read more
Big city Wells Fargo housing for team members.
I eavesdropped on an executive meeting and heard this. Since the cost of housing in big cities is unaffordable for many team members, wouldn’t it be fun to have an apartment above a branch partially subsidized by the company? Just think of the Wells... — read more
Regulator Issues Asset Cap
is the OC sending a message that we should not actively identify issues so that outstanding issues have a downward trend when regulators review them? This would help have the asset cap removed.

Risk Positions
Found an opening in risk that peaked my interest. Any idea on actual pay scales between different IC levels within risk?
No perks
There are literally no perks to working here. I took a full-time WFH role about 10 years ago and was always told “merit increase is only 2%, but you have the flexibility to WFH”. When I went to refinance my mortgage years ago, WF employee rates... — read more

Lester Owens is incompetent.
Why I love Wells Fargo.
My wife and 12 children are healthy and happy. Thanks to WF, 8 of my children graduated with honors from the university. When times were tough 14 years ago, the company stepped up and helped subsidize our family in a time of need. Now, 4... — read more
IRS Raises 401K Contribution Amount

It's hard not to become numb
I think some of us long haulers have become somewhat numb to all the scandals and ridiculous spending. It feels like almost every year the executive stooges are telling us to watch our spending and tighten our belts. IMO, WF is a virus without a... — read more

Hmmm Just got a text "TEST COO OPERATIONS REVS BCP" This is a test of the WF emergency notification system. Just had a BCP test a few weeks.
I know it may sound paranoid but given the CFOs comments on the investor call this week, "remove excess capacity to align with reduced demand". Trump was a little more direct - You Fired! I'll take severance for $10,000 Alex
Merit increase
Does WF do something similar like BOA, basically your merit increase and bonus has been locked in at end of October? Even you change job before end of year, those two items will not change?
Your new health rates!
Make sure you read how your salary is actually calculated for next years insurance premiums. My salary is actually below 100k but they put me in the 100k-250k category because they added my bonus I got this year, which put me just BARELY over 100k... — read more
Benefits Double Dip?

Raises
In Workday you can see your annual benefit rate. For 2022 it shows my current salary. For 2023 it shows a salary 5% higher. Is that my raise just showing up somewhere early?
TM Mail "8 ways to deal with inflation"
