Pros

Generous PTO, health insurance benefits

Cons

High turnover. Low morale. Narrow focus on 'metrics'. New hires are very young with no experience, OTJ training thrown to the wolves. Seasoned administrators are overlooked for promotion. Most team leads are 30 or younger. Lots of chatter and socializing creating distractions among the cubicles. Dress code is hoodies, shorts, flip flops, cellphones. Managers will not acknowledge problem areas. Managers distracted by projects. Unable to approach managers outside weekly meetings. Inconsistent direction. Policies change constantly . Communication from management is lacking, reliance on each other for news. No acknowledgement from management for accomplishments. Apparent favoritism. Focus on risk issues yet risk managers non responsive on many issues. Difficult to get answers. Staff is held financially responsible for errors which create loss for bank, result in deductions from annual bonus. Account fees are rarely correct, and involve several layers of review for remediation . Tight clique of managers w upper management. Unreasonable work load and additional accounts coming our way. Client surveys reveal much discontent and create additional work. No clerical support available. Redundant procedures making job a grind. Stepping stone position for most.

Pros

Good ALM team to work for and also very supportive ALM corporate Risk Business team.

Cons

I was a past employee of Wells Fargo. We have a change in management I past years and the current manager is more of a people manager who do not understand the functionality and the code where lot of questions are asked with the team by him that why we are doing this all the time ? He keep on putting his team under the bus in front of the business. Also wanted to change the technology to Java since the application was running smoothly in .NET and is deployed in cloud successfully. He keeps on creating problems for the team that the application is slow and UI layouts are old and performance is slow whereas the application is upgraded to .NET 8 and all the libraries are also updated. In production the application is very much responsive and fast and since he do not like .NET and is a Java person, he constantly creates lot of issues for the team. Personally I am not against any technology but creating and spreading false information is detrimental to the team and to the business. He also take care of the credit or work performed by the team to his own .

Pros

Benefits (but cost creeping up and coverage creeping down each year), Good Morale Both Management and Coworkers, and Honestly a Great Company.

Cons

Cross Selling is the only focus now, firing employees who are great at their job in every area that should matter but if the cross selling results are not meeting the ever ridiculous quota (which continues to rise) than you may not have a job next month. Expectation for customers to say yes to cross selling, leaving you with no real control of your job security. Stress!
