Per team email from leader of ECMO span and layers took effect - two senior leaders were laid off today, which was specifically said in the email. looks like one leader and the whole team were let go and teams under the other will be aligned to other leaders. Today is the day.

Bloodbath is in October. Best of luck to everyone! This is like AA for the Wall Street Good Ol' Boys' club collateral...or employees not team members anymore.

Core service team got hit pretty hard today in my division. IMHO, I think they’re leaving Middle Market service teams in place until consent order work is done or, at least, close to being done.

There are two layoff dates in October: 10/13 & 10/27. The bloodbath in Oct will be significant. The other layoff dates for the rest of the year are 11/17 & 12/3. The reason October is big is because Charlie Scharf has to make an impression on the earnings call as having accomplished something – it's his one-year anniversary. And let's face it: so far all he's accomplished is hiring a bunch of white guys from NY while gutting what little diversity the company already had.

Core is the rebranded business banking group. They are responsible for commercial banking relationships in the $5MM - $50MM company revenue range. This is changing as Wells is shifting to a more centralized model. There are other threads on here that beat this horse to death.

The do have clients with large real estate portfolios so maybe that's where the confusion with CRE came from. To be honest, there's a lot of gray areas when it comes to Core/MMB customers and customers of partner groups

What are core's responsibilities. I thought they were something to do with commercial real estate. By the title below sounds like I'm wrong. Do you know how many total in core? Is that only group?

In Risk, no one on one, just a Team meeting soon. I am hoping we are given some information. We have been in the dark about this topic. Management seems to avoid or redirect when anything about layoff is brought up.
