Hiring problem in Technology
People are being hired from Bank of America not for their skills or experience but for…… And this is ruining us.
New brokerage firm
Sure if youb want to work for a bubbling id--t go work for DK or some of the former leaders who did nothing but let the company fall apart, develop no technology, lose clients , lose advisors. Half these leaders were asked to leave anyway.
Wells Fargo’s approach to annual online Compliance training doesn’t work, and wastes approximately $2.5 Billion per year.
Problem: 200,000+ employees are each mandated to take 25 to 30 classes every year which, for the most part, have NO RELEVANCE to our jobs. Forcing a Mutual Funds back office clerk to take classes on annuities, bribing foreign officials and the... — read more

Chainsaw Charlie
Got the ax after 25 years of service due to remote status and live in non hub location. I know it’s just business and to not take personal. But still feels like a kn--e in the back.
What are your thoughts about all the job title changes and reclassifications?
I think they are trying to make it more difficult to investigate and identify gender and racial pay gaps. (Especially since it’s been a reoccurring issue at Wells Fargo, and the BOD recommended a vote AGAINST a shareholder proposal to prepare an... — read more

Big Banks
I love big banks. The employees know very little about banking. Everyone lies about their knowledge and experience. Everyone makes double what they should make. Unicorns everywhere. Almost everyone is miserable. Paradise.

Isn’t it ironic….
That Wells Fargo Compliance managers and consultants, whose jobs are to help departments navigate the complex regulations which govern our industry, will not give a straight answer to a question?? 😏

Anyone heard of layoffs in September? Specifically in non hub areas ?
