Pleasant Hill, CA

Current Employee – been working at Wells Fargo full-time for more than a year

ProsGreat co workers, Lots of potential to get promoted.

ConsStressful. Goals could be very high and unattainable at times when traffic is slow. The managers expect you to do whatever is necessary to close a sale. They make you feel like utter crap if you don't make your goals.

Advice to Senior ManagementStop letting your upper management harp on you so much! Its not the end of the world if goal isnt met!

San Francisco, CA

Current Employee – been working at Wells Fargo full-time for more than 7 years

ProsA great value brand. Proud to be working for this. Product offering are varied and hence has a greater opportunity of retaining customers in the long run.

ConsShort sighted immediate management. Focused only only on short term gains. Pushes the lower level employees to the limit of getting sales. No long term strategies to grow and retain business. Currently succeeded as all the banks out there are worse in customer service.

Advice to Senior ManagementThis is a great company and have a long term view of the market and customers. Things started looking better beginning of the year with less emphasis on short term goals but seems have changed track and back to the old way of daily results regardless of consequences.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

San Francisco, CA

Former Employee – worked at Wells Fargo as a contractor for less than a year

ProsHaving come from a formal design background, it was easy to impress the team and work well with the other designers there. I felt welcomed and respected.

ConsIt's a financial firm and not one known to be 'out-of-the-box' creative. A bit cramped style...but again, it's financial not the entertainment industry.
