I truly and deeply grieve for the loss of the company I used to love and spent over two decades of my career supporting. Now I watch in horror as the b̶a̶n̶k̶ "firm" is being rebranded, moved from the pioneering American West to the establishment, elitist East Coast, and outsourced to I&P. What a tragedy.

Wells Fargo is a poseur in NY and will get its a-s kicked.
"boomer-brained"
You seem very enlightened. Thank you for your contribution to this discussion.
In my working years I have witnessed several "sinking ships". The banking industry is tanking because of all the mistakes of the fed and the horrible government. I'm gonna jump ship before it sinks. Good luck everyone.

WF was rotten once Norwest took over in the late 90's. We can predict w/ almost 100% certainty that every time a larger company takes over a smaller trusted brand it can't scale up/maximize productivity w/o greatly eroding the origin story.
These nostalgic warm and fuzzies about Wells Fargo amount to nothing more than a self imposed prison.
Going back in time before 2016 would not be an improvement for anyone.
To extremes, if the original Wells Fargo is deemed the ideal company to work for, there won't be enough positions available to take us all in.
This can’t be a real post. Even that troll with the weird axe to grind about “the firm” isn’t this boomer-brained.
It’s a bank. Get a grip, OP.
For a very large chunk of the population, that's not a "good thing". WF used to pride itself in not being a Wall Street Bank, and they weren't just doing that for giggles, many customers prefer it that way. At the end of the day, once we are "just another wall Street Bank", what differentiates us? As a customer, why choose WF over JPM, for example? Is there a single reason you can think of? That's a problem, especially when you're busy ki-ling off one of the few potential reasons: US employees that give a damn.
Still work here but in non core location and will be laid off. Moving all of my $ out of wells and into local bank. Not buying any Tyson products either. Closing a plant in a relatively small town in Iowa (8,000 people, Tyson employs 1200 there) yet hiring illegals elsewhere. Unreal
I fed the Wells Fargo stagecoach horsies carrots!!
Personally it’s the fraud I have a problem with, but no I guess a word is also very scary.
😂😂😂 this is great!
(Obviously OP is trolling for a laugh but there really are people who comment here that insecure about a major financial institution basing itself out of the financial center of the US)
OP, I agree with you! I’ve thought the same thing.
How very unexpected that someone humblebragging about two decades at Wells Fargo would turn out to have a sc--w loose
