Pros

PTO, holidays, and personal holidays were great. Professional training was stellar prior to Covid.

Cons

I started my career here amost two decades ago and thought I'de retire here. Uncertainty of many positions is rampant. Career advancement has dried up due to job cuts. CEO is cutting so many jobs, your workload becomes an impossible task and you are required to stay late or work 6 days a week to get it accomplished. Work/life balance is a thing of the past. It has the feeling of a take-over coming soon and great, tenured employees are fleeing the sinking ship quickly. In the district of 11 branches I was in, 6 branch managers have left in a span of 4 months. 3 more are actively looking outside of Wells Fargo.

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!
