Pros

Provides excellent training, networking opportunities, and plenty of opportunities to grow within the company. Wells Fargo definitely employs good management that is capable of recognizing potential successors and achievers.

Cons

High turnover rates for retail positions. Office politics have a stronger influence on performance evaluations the higher you climb up the corporate ladder, but this seems to exist amongst most if not all corporations.

Pros

Monthly lunches paid for by account executives. Opportunity for overtime. Wonderful management. Great office moral. Random monthly insentives/prizes for high numbers. Casual dress code.

Cons

Temp employee's can only for up to 18 months. Then they let you go. Overall pretty hodge podge office furnature and accessories. You have to scrounge for a decent office chair. This just makes me think that the higer up's really don't care. A lot of employee's crammed into a small amount of space.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good starting point if you are inexperienced to banking. Good benefits

Cons

Wells wants to be the next Wamu. In their desire to gain market share, they are putting more emphasis on quantity over quality of banking relationships. They want to be the walmart of banks and just like walmart, employee turnover is increasing. Management promotes from within only to keep salaries down.
