Pros

Visibility to execs; large size meant there were constantly new job opportunities including opportunities for advancement

Cons

Note: it’s been four years since I left WF so some things may have changed, especially under Charlie’s leadership. In my experience, it was not a customer-centric culture; the attitudes and culture that led them into trouble with regulators still permeated the business units; they struggled to retain outside talent with fresh thinking and perspectives.

Pros

It used to be benefits until we switchededical from Aetna to United. Parental leave benefits are great at 16 weeks paid leave for birth or adoption. Bereavement of 10 days. We get stock purchase options but not discounted. 401k is through empower which is very user friendly.

Cons

United healthcare. Metrics are un realistic and the hardest of all to hit is the only one that's technically looked at for raises. I haven't gotten a raise in many years even though almost all of my metrics are meeting. Interestingly difficult to get an interview for new positions internally often receiving declination emails within a few hours. Notoriously underpaid considered next to other banking institutions. Sick time is earned and not given at the beginning of the year leaving early year sickness' to acrue absences rather than help. Terrible culture value if your white. Unpatriotic

Pros

Great benefits, generally smart people (some very smart).

Cons

> DEI everywhere. I personally worked with people who had little or no experience with MS Office (PPT, XLS, Word). > RTO mandate began in 2023, which really impacted qualified stakeholders (legal, project/prgm, product, etc.). This includes people who sit at their desk all day on Zoom/Teams calls and only interact when going to the restroom, getting coffee, etc. > Pay: Typical of most companies, getting above your pay range requires a promotion, meaning if you're the best in the group, you never see an annual increase unless your promoted to a different job. I know many, many smart and ethical people who never get above their pay range after years and years.
