I know they are tracking work computers in the office. What about personal devices? Can I take a call in the office when I’m in the bathroom? Will this count as activity? Will my score go up or down if I flush? Can they track how many minutes I’m in... — read more 

Thanks in advance.

If you live near an office and go in above and beyond the three days 8 hours a day requirement- say working a half day in office on day 4 - this will actually hurt you. The calculation is looking at average hours in office per day so a half day will... — read more 

Sometimes it feels like some of the decisions being made are there for no reason other than to make our lives harder. I think this leadership is sadistic and has turned Wells Fargo into a sadistic company. I don’t think anyone is still here because... — read more 

Heard that San leandro location will close and teams will move to concord. Is this only for few teams or entire san leandro office is going to be closed and all teams will be moving to concord location ?

Anyone know? 1) Does the 8 hours count working with offshore at night? If no, I'll ignore them till next morning 2) Does putting in extra hours on weekends help? 3) Is 5-6 hours + 2-3 hours office + home acceptable? Bridgets email does indicate...

I’m assigned to an office far from my house and they won’t change my location so I have been going one day a week to a closer location.

Any news of any layoffs in HR?

Has anyone consulted with a lawyer on the displacement paperwork agreement with WF? I have zero intentions of not signing but just want to make sure there is no reason to get a lawyer to review.

How do employees counter when Management tries to gives us a “needs improvement” rating (rather than a “Meets”) on our year-end review when we were moved into a new role? Of course there is going to be a learning curve, but I feel like we are being... — read more 

Rumor is that EBCE folks get the axe in the coming 2-3 weeks. My question along with this is why are they still taking up people's time and still starting engagements?!

Get reports that are business critical? I mean there are so many things that are backwards but we’re focusing on keystrokes and badge swipes? Priorities seem a little backwards. If employees can’t deliver get rid of them for cause. If employees... — read more 

If this is documented in Teamworks or somewhere else, let me know, but does 4 hours of PTO still count as a day in the office? And if we take 4 hours on two separate days during the week, does that count as two days in the office?

This is the only job I’ve ever had where I have to worry about layoffs every two weeks. I’ve worked for other major banks, I’ve worked in other industries too, and nowhere was it ever this bad. I thought joining Wells Fargo would be a great career... — read more 

When are the next business control layoffs?

Nobody can seriously believe that. The vast majority of employees, whether in the office or remote, have worked hard and responsibly, and that’s easy to prove. RTO was introduced for real estate utilization, control, and, most of all, as an attrition... — read more 

Hello everybody in want to warn the community about the mcdonal near the office. I ordered a large fry and all I got was a regular. They think I’m up in hear playing but I got news for them: I ain’t.

Yup. Many layoff across many departments. Many states. Many offices. When do the remote workers get the severance? Wrong answers only What’s your favorite scary movie?

Verint is the vendor, they track activity while logged into the network. Not all departments have this, most do not. That probably will change at some point. Essentially it measures activity, idle and inactive time as well as time in applications... — read more 

Does anyone definitively know how Wells Fargo is tracking your "working hours"? I hear that the next big layoff is going to target people who are working only 10 to 20 hours a week. I work more than that (I hope) but it got me thinking about how they... — read more 

Honestly I don’t understand why everyone is being punished for people who are abusing the system.

It’s been over six months since Bridget came on board, so a major reshuffle in her leadership team seems inevitable at some point. I’m honestly surprised there haven’t been any changes yet. Who do you think is likely to raise or move on when it... — read more
