Our 2026 H1B numbers are worth a look...
In 2025, there were about 150 Wells Fargo H1B visa records in this Department of Labor dataset (it's public). Through the end of August 2026, there are already 335 - more than double last year's total. Average listed salary is about $150 (so it's... — read more
Saw job posting on LinkedIn, but cannot see it internally?
I saw a job posting that looks almost like my role appear on LinkedIn, but searching internally for it I cannot find it, even using the reference number. Is it just blocked from me? Or was the posting removed?
An extremely serious question
Why are we still outsourcing jobs and hiring H-1B workers when thousands of Americans are being let go? Isn’t AI supposed to help solve problems for Americans and remove dependence on cheaper foreign labor and solutions?
I’ve never seen an employer this toxic
Stack ranking, nepotism, favoritism, H1B, outsourcing, politics, fire without paying severance, constant layoffs, all kind of scandals, this bank is disgusting.
The site we work in is shutting down, all guesswork when
2 Banker support teams in this site were given their displacement notices last week. They have to work through the end of the year. Our year end Celebration that usually happens annually at Christmas, has been moved to Early November. For the first... — read more

Worst run dept - October edition
Okay fellow WF’ers. A poorly run dept usually means layoffs are coming soon. So help a friend out by letting us know which depts are run real real bad. Use managers initials only.
Used to like my job
I used to love my position. But over the years they have turned it into a soul su-king job that makes me feel like I'm terrible at when I used to be one of the top performers. And I've been in roles at WF that have done that before. So do I know that... — read more
Ever had a good mid year review
And you think you're doing well. No complaints from anyone about your work and then by end of year, you get inconsistently meets and some flippant comments that you're not helping enough or your work contained errors? That was mind blowing since no... — read more

Excess and inefficiencies in Risk
Risk is filled with excessive layers of management and bureaucracy that prevents anything from being accomplished. Everyone appears to be a director and highly compensated to keep the up facade.
using AI productively
Generally speaking, deploying AI productivity tools enterprise-wide while simultaneously (according to forum evidence) manufacturing false performance records, there is now a situation where: • Employee-created AI records are discoverable and... — read more
A tremendous layoffs are coming by end of year
They just can’t cut enough. Too many coasters, too many pretenders. Too many lazy American to cut.
Why is RTO such a big issue (at least for some)?
If someone was already commuting to an office before COVID, why is going back such a big deal now? I get that it's tough for people hired during the pandemic, but if you did it before, what's actually different? My case is different as I joined... — read more
Birmingham AL Ops site

24 hr onsite - 2 days ok?
We are required to work onsite 8 hours a day, 3 days a week - if I complete 24 hours in two days onsite (12 hours a day) will we still get flagged for non compliance? TIA
They don’t want expensive American workers
They only want cheap hard labor.

“Workforce Share” (Redeployment) is a Form of Ageism?
After several months of “redeployment” into a role that was very different from my previous job, I was told I could no longer return to my original position because it was supposedly no longer available. The whole situation seemed questionable from... — read more

2027 Layoffs
Technology is reducing headcount by 10% in 2027.
if working from home
Doesn't count for your in-office attendance, which is all management cares about, then don't work from home. Give them your 7 hours and 30 minutes plus lunch and that it.
Fix it now!

Scott Powell: the new butt-in-chair Sheriff
The word has come down: meet the new boss, worse than the old boss. What gets measured gets managed... and all Powell wants to know is how many a-s cheeks are in how many chairs for how many hours.
Cornell alleged attacker works at wells fargo
We all knew HR was incompetent but a quick google search of Diego shows he is one of the Cornell 7 being prosecuted. Yet people are getting fired over the littlest thing. This company is a joke.
"Doing more with less" has reached the unsustainable point
I'm now done even trying. I'll do what can be done with the time and resources I have. being fired is preferable to the pressure of trying to stay on top of things when they keep adding new things to my already full plate all the time.
you can't make this up lol

One of the Cornell 7 works for Wells Fargo
While I understand that this wouldn’t have shown up on a background check, Wells now knows they employ a criminal. While it’s an alleged crime (heinous), the text messages are out and show guilt. He is a Commercial Real Estate program analyst in NYC... — read more
