HR Limiting Your Job Apps to 5!
Anyone see this announcement? HR really su-ks seeing that it has ALWAYS taken 2-3 months to hire someone. With all this outsourcing and layoffs it appears to me that someone decided to tamp down what we’re applying for in the US so they can lower... — read more

Home lending risk
Anyone have insights into the irm functions? Seeing a few good paying jobs on that team. Interesting since lending is on the decline but that doesn’t mean the risks disappear. Is it a new team?
Your anger and hostility at off shore members is misplaced
What do you expect them to do, not take the jobs? Not better their life? Not make a living?
HEY TROOPS! SHOUT IT OUT.. TELL IT HOW IT IS. YOUR JOB IS BEING OFFSHORED ANYWAY
///Layoffs will continue as they have been and pickup./// ///After falling victim to Charlie's unoriginal strategy of offshoring American jobs, and H1b. The reason stated was my role was offshored to India & Philippines. It put alot into... — read more

Can WF afford to keep losing their best people?
Cheap labor doesn't mean qualified labor. Replacing great US based workers with someone cheap offshore will get this place exactly what they are paying for. Additionally, when there is no consequence for poor performance, and no reward for good... — read more
EA is a cluster flock
For an organization that is supposed to be about governance, strategy, best practices etc. they are rolling out the most half baked and garbage solutions. Yes. Tech is affected.
It's so disheartening to train offshore coworkers to replace me
Even ignoring the extreme difficulty in explaining the simplest of concepts or tasks, I feel legitimately depressed that my work is so unimportant to senior management and they just care about cutting costs. I'll probably be out of a job and the... — read more

Duke Energy Building Uptown

I hate Execs calling WF "the firm" and being an "employee" and not a "team member"
All of this verbiage is simply to make us cookie cutouts of one another and in the image of Charlie's prize example of the company where he really wants to be - Chase. Charlie has swiped right on Jamie Dimon one too many times. The love affair is... — read more

WF Compliance
Compliance will take this bank down. When the layoffs ramp up, some laid off will spill the beans. It’s not pretty.

You leave when you are dissatisfied with the pay, the stress levels, the boss(es), your career prospects, or any combination thereof.
Hot strike summer!
Love to see it!!

Deposit customers?
Has there been a mass exodus recently of depositors at WF? Other banks are clamoring for new depositors and offering interest rates of 4, 5+% while WF is paying 0.25%. Is this entirely because the asset cap is still in place, or does Charlie have a... — read more
