Pros

Good PTO Good Benefits Good starting pay Off on holidays Bank gives two personal holidays Free account

Cons

Hard to advance, been with the company for 2 & a half years, gained a business degree with Wells, have received numerous awards and done extensive volunteer work for the company. Job advancement is based off favoritism. If you apply to another branch they will most likely chose someone from their own branch, make you interview for the position just to tell you they chose someone else. Tellers need better pay and better rotation to keep our mental state healthy. Counting money, having conversations and multitasking can take its toll on the mind eventually. Management gets mad when you call in Can only call out 3 times in a 6 month rolling period Once staffing is in need of more coverage it can take a month of longer to hire new tellers and have them trained. I have experienced around 4-5 times where we have went a month or longer understaffed. This causes tellers to tire out, get sick and not want to help customers because they are overloaded. Interview process is just scenarios and does not factor in length with the company, degree,work ethic and does not ask personal questions. Last because of Wells Fargo’s own mistakes they are now very strict on ethics. Something small that is routine can end you with a final warning.

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!
