Pros

Ability to manage great teams and have an impact on complicated, strategic projects. Salaries are higher than most of the large banks.

Cons

- Management is a hot mess. With 4 CEOs in the last six years, and continuous management attrition, the firm is constantly (and unsuccessfully) looking for its footing. - The newest leaders have confused the culture and made working at the firm chaotic. People are let go for no reason. People are asked to raise their hands, but when they do they are paid off to leave. Retribution is rampant among leaders who have had HR cases filed against them. - Wells Fargo could be great if they would listen to the people who have been tirelessly working there since the Account Settlement issues of 2016. The new leaders have their own plans however, and unfortunately it is a case of confusing leadership that is not building a conducive place to grow.

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!
