Pros

Good benefits and salary is competitive, that's it.

Cons

You dont know true micro-management unless you've worked at Wells Fargo. Everything we do is analyzed to death to the point that it becomes counterproductuve. The sales process is also way too long with all of the paperwork we need to complete and the fact that we actually need approval to open each account, which is ridiculous. Wells has taken away all of the responsibility we used to have and treats us like children. Also, clients are becoming annoyed now that we try to sell them something every time they step into the bank. With all of this, sales goals are absolutely absurd. They are so astronomical that its laughable. All the company cares about is your sales numbers, period. They could care less about the employee, and it is very frustrating to work there anmd deal with this. Very tough bank to work for!

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!
