Wells Fargo is a great place to work if you like getting yelled at constantly.

Business relationship manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The benefits are truly great and cannot be beaten by anyone in the industry.

Cons

Regional management that is imcompetent at best. They have huge egos and really are clueless when it comes to dealing with employees. Beating people up for working hard, yelling at people when they are hitting their goals, and not approving any credit requests typically does not lead to happy employees. You would think they would look at their retention problems and realize this, but their arrogance does not allow for introspection.

Blanket 8 Hour Requirement with No Flexibility

Cybersecurity analyst

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I used to love working here, the flexibility to work on the go allowed me to meet family obligations while still maintaining a high level of productivity day to day.

Cons

This month they required a minimum 8 hours at an office, this was previously 4-8 based on your schedule. And you were able to finish the day at home or wherever you were able. Now you cannot work from your BYOD as that doesn’t count as productive time. You must be on the network your full 8 hours, and there is no wiggle room for issues that might come up, except to use PTO. Because they also don’t have a separate sick time.

Dont join - worst manager - Arun Srivalker

Technician

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Salary comes on time. Cab facility is good.

Cons

I worked for 3 companies earlier and never seen a worst manager like Arun Srivalker. Dont join under manager Arun Srivalker. He is very good in micro-management and thinks that he is god He never listen to male associates and prefers to have only females. His behavior towards male associates is worst. If you check out of 8 members in his team 7 are female. He will never let you grow in the org. U will never get promotion under him even if you work for 6 years .
