Pros

Large company, a lot of room for lateral movement; smart outlook and long-term business plan avoided banking industry debacle. Post-merger company makes Wells a player in the global banking system.

Cons

Working for the right business group leads to career growth and advancement. Revenue generating lines of businesses gets most of the perks.

Pros

Great company, great support, great people, awesome benefits... I would highly reccomend it to someone who already had their career in motion.

Cons

I had a hard time getting direction from my supervisor. She was very nice and always willing to talk, but she would never tell me what she wanted and then would get mad when I produced something that didn't fit into the guidelines that she didn't give me. Go figure.

Pros

While it lasted, my group made large sums of money and grew for decades. In general, Wells is a huge bureaucracy and as long as you find a good niche to fill you can end up staying employed with them for years.

Cons

Lots of inefficiencies. You have to ask for approval to do anything meaningful in most groups. Try and get into a group with management that is "in the club" with the higher ups and you should be fine. None of my advice applies to retail banking jobs. The people who work in this part of the bank are usually removed from any decision making part of the WF behemoth by dozens of levels.
