Over the years I've read many posts on here stating that layoff notices go out the same day as the layoff conversation. Sometimes people continue lurking on this board after they've been laid off. Has anyone been laid off and gotten the notice the... — read more 

How many hours is that exactly? 6,7,8,8.5? Are they trying to keep this vague on purpose?

Hey, forcing people back to push attrition. Using policies that will disproportionately affect older workers and primary caregivers. All while pi----g off in demand people that can leave if they have a chance. What could go wrong? 8 is great.

Forced to give me 90 days warn I got job starting week after warn ended You built policy saying no 401K match or bonus due to effective dates. Lol Now you get to eat my 30 weeks of severance Your dirty policies failed. Nice try no cigar.

So far my manager has not set an 8 hour requirement . I am in the office 6 hours but who knows when that will change….

For people who track this stuff i predict sick time will double or triple. If I have a sick kid I have to pick up and leave the office I’ll just use four hours of sick time. And when I log off I will be done for the day. I’m not going to sit in an... — read more 

I took a look at the layoff boards for other banks. They've been complaining about the same things we do about RTO. It's not just us.

Hey, laid off over 3 years ago. Just wondering what is happening at good ole(d?) Wells Fargo. Ran across this youtube short https://www.youtube.com/shorts/kqLz53z8Inc and thought that might be the situation.

If we all band together and collectively don’t follow the 8 hours in office, it’ll create so much extra work for mangers, hr, etc. The documented discussions, write ups, pips, involving HR. They are already extremely tired of hearing and talking... — read more 

Most of the people in my building are 50+, many 55+ and 5-10 years from retirement who have long checked out and are just waiting it out for either retirement or to get their golden parachute. RTO is only making people more checked out and they are... — read more 

My group wasn't told this, who said this? I have most my calls from 6am to 10am with people in India. Do they expect me to get up at 4am to get to the office by 6am to take these calls? It's not going to happen, and i don't like threats. A word of... — read more 

So the guidance is that you need to work a full 8 hours but should still feel free to pick up your kids or attend medical appointments etc? I literally asked what happens if it’s snowing and I need to leave a little early to pick my kid up before... — read more

The facts are WFC is using this site to drive a narrative and fearmonger. The Schart does not keep his word. Employees need to STAND UP BOMBARD THE DOL, Regulators, POLICYMAKERS, AND FRIENDS. Report all the nonsense you are experiencing. ... — read more 

Hi, I referred 2.5MM to a FA, I’m a premier. Back office is saying that they won’t give me compensation because I didn’t authenticate customer. I always authenticate because I have to generate a customized summary. Do you guys any lawyers I can... — read more 

How does the process work?

When did it start? And how does the reporting actually look?

Way to be tone deaf. Let’s discuss the idea of going on vacation to scuba dive, and then have two other executives join in, expressing their desire to dive or visit the exotic location mentioned. Do they think we can all afford not just the airfare... — read more 

I’ve been trying to figure out how to drop off kids work 8 and pick them up. With no notice this is ridiculous. So I think my option one day a week is to drop them off and then head back into the office in the evening and sit there. So do the reports... — read more 

what’s the latest with The Barn? We haven’t had a Barn post in a while, so thought we should check in. You good?

Create a problem (mandated time in office), then waste inordinate amounts of time, energy, and money developing the solution. And before anyone wants to spout off about a return to pre-pandemic conditions, I would like to say that before March 2020... — read more

Was told in a meeting yesterday that the 8 hour in office mandate was only for team members located in the USA. For team members in India, Philippines and other countries it was up to the manager. Seems discriminatory and arbitrary. I've never... — read more 

They arrive at 8am and leave around 2:30 for daycare pickup but never see them back online or available for any meetings later in day. How do people get away with this!? My workload would not allow that.

100% of the people I spoke to hate the new in office. It’s to get us to quit with zero severance. If you hate this policy then quit all your ERNs, don’t do any volunteer work or company wide events. Clock in, job, clock out. Don’t show for town... — read more 

How long would I have if I stopped coming into the office?

For those expecting a golden parachute, consider this a warning: the bank does not want to pay severance. They already stretched funding for layoffs this year, and the idea of generous packages next year is a myth. What you will likely see instead... — read more

There are many remote jobs available in the market, but you have to compete with visa workers who likely hold two or three jobs. Working five days a week from the office just isn’t worth it. Good luck!

Like if I’m going to be out for two weeks do those extra days work for the week right before? How does it work for when it’s the end of the month? I don’t see this published anywhere

Effective immediately? What a sh-t show. Tracking our mouse movements or clicks. I assume Q1 is the announcement of 4 days a week or back to 5. I guess this is one way of saying, I’m only doing my 8 hours and shutting down.. see ya again at 7am.

My boss says they are tracking our activity daily and sending reports to leadership. Can someone explain what exactly they are tracking? Has anyone seen these reports?

When I worked in ECMO, I noticed that every single manager and team lead had a photo of their family for their computer wallpaper. Isn't that weird? What's that all about? Do they get a memo saying something along the lines of, "Now that you're a... — read more

Got a message from my manager saying full office hours are expected if you are in office :(

How are things going with the centralized hubs for each LOB? I left in July 2024 and remember getting emails about the hubs and cities they want to operate in and offer people relocation packages to keep their jobs. Just curious… thanks!
