Pros

Every aspect of Wells Fargo makes it a great place to work. All of the team members from Senior Management down are talented and amazing to work with. WF is a company that is all about developing its team and helping them be successful; all while focusing on the financial needs of its customers. I am proud to work here. I have been here 13 years and have had unlimited opportunities to develop and grow!

Cons

Pros

Great benefits at Wells Fargo! There is plenty of room for advancement. I have met some amazing people while working for Wells Fargo, and they have become like my family. I feel like the support I receive from my peers and some of my supervisors is great. I love that I have the opportunity to try my hand at management. I love the compliance aspect of the bank. Following rules and regulations is key to making sure the bank runs smoothy. Working at Wells Fargo is like working with friends and family. I love how we are recognized when we perform well for the company. Overall, I think Wells Fargo is a great company to work for.

Cons

The sales aspect of the job is difficult. Sometimes the pressure gets to be too much. It is especially frustrating when you have a manager who can not filter the information coming from upper management. Every day, we are pushed harder and harder. It is never good enough. I wish that would change. I understand that they want to make money, however, management teams need better training in how to coach. Sometimes, sales are the only thing upper management cares about. Customer service and compliance are also very important in the banking business. We shouldn't be here for sales alone. I think we need to have a better balance.

Pros

If you are willing to work very hard, play the sales game and not rock the boat, you will be fairly compensated and praised. The pay is steady, the benefits are nice and the security of the job is there for you. If you are a sheep, don't like to think for yourself and are willing to play the game just as the man wants you to play it, you will do very well indeed.

Cons

If you are an original thinker or one who questions authority, this is not the place for you. It's a very political environment. It's an environment dedicated to sales under the guise of customer service. This is true for all banks, not just this one.
