Would love to sing this song at karaoke with someone. Maybe even do a rendition of Baby You’re a Rich Man. If only I knew a leader at Wells that likes karaoke.
Work during severance
Are you able to work during severance?... And bonus question can you receive severance and state unemployment at the same time ?
Oh well, back into the office
Can’t wait to be worked to the bone some more, especially since my team is barely holding together under an incompetent manager and roles that were cut and never backfilled. More overtime, exhaustion, and stress, only to be rewarded by getting laid... — read more
Location strategy 2026 ?
Will the location strategy continue in 2026 where they want most teams to be physically located together?
T-2 days until Match
Exciting :)
Each year is worse than the previous one
I don’t even want to think about what 2026 is going to be like, considering that for the past five years, if not longer, every single year has been worse in some respect than the one before it. More layoffs, fewer benefits, and a culture that keeps... — read more
Employment during notic
Can I take another job if I’m in my non working notice period before lay off?
Vision 2026
They will fire all engineers except AI (All Indians) engineers.
CS has made it clear with his directs
A recently displaced HR manager at HY told me in a 1:1 that CS no longer wants to continue paying severance. Instead, he has instructed his directs to relay to all managers to rely heavily on performance reviews to justify terminations. He also... — read more
CRG National Sales
I understand that they laid off employees in October and they encouraged them to reapply for their positions. Does anyone have information on how many were let go and how many have been brought back? I've heard they were considering external... — read more
Unused PTO
When does Wells Fargo pay out unused PTO for those who were laid off and their severance period ends today?
Better watch out …..
The goal to let people go is a different feel now they will look for every little reason to fire someone and to make sure the severance cost plummets so make sure you hit your goals office expectations etc yes I know this is old news but it isn’t... — read more
Everything must go year end layoffs
One last cleanup before entering 2026 Next Tuesday: Dec 30
Happy Holidays
Whether you celebrate an appropriated pagan ritual, or just the spirit of giving, may your year-end be excellent, and next year see your country and company return to sanity.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2026!
What does your intuition tell you about how the firm will do in 2026? More layoffs? Higher stock price? Any changes at the C-suite level? Asking for a friend who is trying to decide whether to fire WF and how soon.
RTO noncompliance = inconsistently meets
If you missed the 3 days in office average for 2025- you are about to get an “Inconsistently Meets” rating for the year. We had managers in our area that had to downgrade team members from “Exceeds” to I/M. It was escalated up to legal and management... — read more
It’s over
When an employee hits the report I get for being in the office for 7hrs and 15 mins, it’s time to be worried. They obviously don’t want to pay severance in 2026. Sorry to be the bearer of this news but watch yourself, it’s about to get turbulent
Bad management is the root of it all
Instead of developing people or rewarding effort, they just keep piling on more responsibility and calling it “growth.” No new title, no raise, no acknowledgment. You end up doing the work of two jobs while being treated like you should be grateful... — read more

4 days firmwide?
Keep seeing that we are going in firmwide 4 days starting April 1. Can anyone confirm?
What’s up with managers these days?
They’ve been on a downward spiral for ages. This is my fourth bank in 30+ years, and the last competent manager I saw was basically ancient history. Feels like they’re mass-producing these “leaders” in some cheap clone factory with subpar...

Wells Fargo Layoffs 2026
Is this going to be an interesting year as it relates to Wells Fargo layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?
Agile at WF
The company hired me to lead their "Agile Transformation." I don't know what Agile means. Nobody does. That's why it works. I make $425,000 a year. To move sticky notes. From left to right. On a board. The board is digital now. The sticky notes cost... — read more
Be nice to yourself during the holidays
Treat yourself to something you truly enjoy, cherish time with family and friends, and do everything you can to forget about work for a day or two. It does wonders to not let this place monopolize your time and mind. It’s not worth it. We can’t... — read more

Is WF tracking by employee ID Card?
For employees who have an ID badge with a chip, does WF use it to track their location?
4 days will soon be 5
4 days in April will become 5 days in July/August.
Stock
All in all we can’t complain too much. The stock is rocking and if you held the matches over the past few years in your 401k you are doing ok!
IT
Will AI replace IT first? Numerous IT professionals in my office express skepticism, claiming that AI is not as effective as it is said to be. I have utilized AI to resolve various IT issues/challenges.
