    Wells Fargo Personal Banker in Los Angeles, CA:   (Past Employee - 2009)

    Pros

    If your looking for a "first" job, its a great place to work because of their sales training, and you ultimately are working in somewhat of a corporate environment. You will be paid well, especially if you don't have a degree, but believe you me, it is not a place where you will make a career out of. Just a good place to learn how their is a lot of drama, poor management, and none existing bonuses. Those are the pros!

    Cons

    Lets face it, Wells Fargo = RETAIL. Which is fine, but not when it comes down to dealing with peoples finances.
    When I first started WF in mid 2004, it was nothing to how it is today. I left in 2006 to move, and when I came back to WF in 2009, I left after 3 months.
    The fact is, the managers are puppets, they literally know NOTHING. They tell you not to game (which is cheating), but the only way to move ahead is to do so.
    Employees they hire now are classless, and have no education, nor background. Personally I hate working with stupid people, and especially having stupid managers.
    The company will be the next Enron... Just watch...
    The only reason WF did not take money from the government, or the only reason they are still up and running is because of Warren Buffets billions he holds within the companies portfolio.
    If it was not for him they would be no where right about now.
    If you are wondering if working for WF will bring you new opportunities, growth, lots of money... Think again. You may need to actually think about working for IN & OUT burgers, they will give you the respect you need unlike WF.
    WF has changed, and all they care about is screwing with peoples lives, money, and lieing to their customers.
    Free checking?!?!? lol no a thing of the past... WF will slowly begin to crumble, and that's because of their overwhelming turnover rate, and hiring some of the most stupidest people on the face of this planet.
    So dont be caught up in the hype. There is room for you to grow in this world and be successful, WF is not the place, unless its your first job.
    p.s. as a banker the pay will get you right around $35k a year.... think its a lot?!?!? Well again if your a first time job seeker, sure.... Talk to me after a month and lets see if you feel the same way.

    Advice to Senior Management

    My advice would be to VP's, Executives, and some district managers.
    GET BETTER RECRUITERS... Make it more challenging to be promoted to management levels, and take education into consideration. Do not pay a first time banker the same amount as you would with someone who has a bachelors or masters degree... Where is the motivation?!
