Pros

Wells Fargo has got some great core values. For example, they believe in making their employees happy because then they will treat the customers well. They use surveys to help management know how employees are feeling about their work. They are very active in donating to and helping out local communities. The employees themselves are dedicated to their work.

Cons

Management doesn't always follow their own core values. Rather than listening to the surveys, they get everyone to answer them correctly. Some groups are populated predominently by a single sex, so there may be some preferential hiring. There is no central technical group of any significance, so different departments have their own support with different standards. Little coordination. Many of their systems are outdated and their management/employees have no interest in keeping up with current technology and practices.

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!
