I'm hearing from several parents that childcare is scarce. I can attest to it, too! There are waitlists all over the place. Childcare facilities are NOT back to the capacity numbers before Covid AND they are short-staffed. Did WF take into... — read more
You have no right to complain about RTO
If you are guilty of: Having a pet interrupt a call by appearing or being heard. Same with a child Couldn't attend or had to have a call rescheduled because you had to take care of a non work matter Were suddenly 'unavailable' or... — read more
How is RTO helping our Country?
So main reason the global response to Putin being shy of some children games is gas. Russia is the 2nd global gas provider. So the genius folks out here, in the middle of the inflation, skyrocketed gas prices, make a wide ego filled decision, to... — read more

Here is the truth about RTO in a nutshell:
Upper management needs us back in the office to justify their existence and exorbitant paychecks. They have to attempt to rationalize to the Board and the shareholders that the company cannot operate effectively without management being there to... — read more
Don't even try to talk to me about being green or anything to help the environment
I have been remote with WF for many years and I've accepted RTO (while looking for another job), but having people commute after 2 years of not commuting is bad for the environment. I'm no activist, but WF will say they have these lights or these... — read more
This is what you signed up for
I don't feel sorry for those who worked at the office, got a two-year-long vacation, and now don't want to go back to doing what they signed up to do in the first place. I do feel sorry for those who have been working remotely from the start of their... — read more
On “working from home”
I think anyone who's claiming that remote work has been "proven" to be better or worse is wrong. There are some studies but they use estimations and proxies, carrying the same flaws as doing performance reviews based on lines of code. We've proven... — read more
Legends of the quit
So many people quitting, getting laid off or “retiring” what’s the most epic departure you’ve seen - at Wells or not? In a previous company a consultant (the high paid kind, not the staff augmentation type) was at the end of an assignment. It was... — read more
This is how Wells Fargo can stop the war in Ukraine.
How is my plan, upvote if you like it. We have money, and let's say we put $3B to work using the plan below. Here is how it'll work. Russia's army has verly low morale, with many of them surrendering. With devaluation of the Ruble, soldiers... — read more
How can you tell if someone is a Contractor?

Wifi in Offices?
If not will need to upgrade to unlimited data plan,
What accomodations are available to allow WFH?
What needs to be declared?
Please hear me out
I’ve been struggling with why we’re being forced back into offices to sit with people we don’t know or work with. I’m not going to learn anything other than some random’s March Madness brackets standing by the invisible water cooler in my building... — read more
Was just laid off Feb 2022
My job was outsourced to their resources in the Philippines and there were others. They gave me no heads up and told me the same day as my last day. Has anyone else been laid-off this year?
Colorado PTO

Enjoying declining all those early morning calls
It’s been fun telling people I can no longer do that 5 or 6am call anymore; I will be commuting! I clock in at 9am from now on 😎
Leaving Wells Fargo
I quit. Immediate relief from broken everything. Dont know whats ahead but never felt such a burden lifted in my life
I'll never forgive upper management for leaving so many of us remote workers in limbo
Management keeps hyping the value of face-to-face collaboration, but many of us historically remote workers aren't anywhere near a hub location. The result is that we can't advance because we're not considered valuable, and we can't post for... — read more
They are becoming desperate
Do they really want us back in the office this badly??? Is anybody going to actually fall for this cr-p? Come to the office so you can breathe better? **Study finds home indoor air quality isn’t as good as... — read more
With RTO coming soon, I am betting the forums
Will slow down a lot. Being in the office, you have no more time for fluff with management watching what you're doing. This forum is the most active of them all.
RTO hybrid model difference under SVB?

Vax Mandate Lifted?
Last part of Powell's RTO update today said the vax mandate for business travel has been lifted. What made them decide this now? I thought this was a core part of making things safe for RTO.

RTO! Only two weeks away. I am stoked!
It's just around the corner. I can't wait. D-day for all of the big talkers. Do everyone a favor and just turn your cr-p in that day and be done (quitting without notice does not show on any future employer job verification). For those of us... — read more

Terrible Timing
Putin is threatening to use nukes and our execs think this is a great time to leave our homes and comfort zones for their stupid RTO? It really puts into perspective what is important. I have been firing off my resume, but if these firms move as... — read more
Getting approval for different work location
What are the chances that someone gets approved to change work locations? As in halfway across the country? I miss my family and support system way too much.
Centralize Associates?
I heard a rumor they will centralize the associate position in a low cost area. I know JPM already does this. Is it true? What is the timing?
Employees DO have the option to choose on RTO
It’s called resigning and finding a fully remote job with another company
Employee should have the options to choose on RTO
The employee should have the options to choose on RTO, like.... Option 1: 100% Remote (anywhere in the world) - your pay will be 20% less Option 2: 100% Remote (within Country) - your pay will be 10% less Option 3: 100% Work from Office- your pay... — read more
