The Rise And Stall Of Wells Fargo

U.S. regulators say Wells Fargo has repeatedly misled and overcharged its customers. These allegations have rocked the 170-year-old bank, which still stands as one of the largest lenders in the U.S. The Federal Reserve continues to uphold an unprecedented cap on the bank's assets in response to the government's findings. These ongoing legal issues have weighed on the bank in recent years, sending numerous employees and executives out the door.
Reports of fraudulent activity in Wells Fargo's sales department first surfaced in 2013. The bank opened at least 3.5 million fraudulent accounts for unwitting customers, according to researchers at the Harvard Business School. This and other issues have led the government to fine the bank repeatedly.
Experts said the government has wide authority to limit Wells Fargo, given the reputation senior management has earned for imposing demanding business goals on its workforce. These lofty goals may have led employees to engage in deceitful and at times allegedly illegal behavior.
In a statement to CNBC, Wells Fargo said the bank is revising its management, risk and control frameworks while changing the company's culture and policies. "They said, "there's more work that we must do to rebuild trust, and we are committed to doing that work."

The Rise And Stall Of Wells Fargo

[@macdizzlefoshizzle]

I worked for World Savings Bank, which was a savings & loans bank until Wachovia bought them in 2006. Then Wells Fargo bought Wachovia in 2008. In those 3 years I witnessed 3 different work environments and cultures and Wells was the most disgraceful, disgusting and greedy of the three banks. The unethical practices we did on a daily basis just to keep our jobs was something I’ll never forget and never repeat. I’ll never do business with them again.

[@Lyerbait13]

Was Wachovia not bad or just not bad by comparison

[@Amitkumar-fp9no]

As per you most disgusting bank bought ur previous 2 bank 🏦 so basically ur old banks were good bcoz u disgraceful employees let them lose money bcoz u wanted to relax and enjoy even if it means that ur bank keep losing money 💰 wells Fargo bas right to pull u useless employee up, and the practice u r saying disgusting for wells Fargo is actually the best to extract best out of its employees and increase their profit interest so basically u r a disgusting employee and not Wells Fargo

[@steez54321]

When I got married I asked my wife where her bank account was and she had it was Wells. She said they were withdrawing $3 on her account every month she didn't write at least 5 checks. She was in college at the time and only had like $100 to her name so $3 was a lot back then. We went to the bank the next day, withdrew all her money, and closed her account and opened a joint account at Zions Bank where they have never charged us a penny for overdraft fees or any other fee for that matter for over 16 years.

[@JasonB808]

@@capincrunch1184 Not good. Many banks have a minimum balance and if money goes below that point they can charge fees for that. Also if the fee is more than what is in account, the Over Draw protection kicks in which is basically a $500 protection for the merchant so that a merchant gets paid. This service is essentially a Lon so big time fees are charged when it’s used. So double the fees of falling below minimum and the over draft protection. This is a normal thing banks do and not a Wells Fargo scandal thing. Keep at least 100 bucks in there to avoid those fees.😅

I worked at another bank before this scandal broke that asked tellers to get a certain (reasonable) amount of sales referrals a quarter (sending a customer to a banker to open a new account of some kind, etc.). Right before I left they hired a new branch manager who came over from Wells. He told us that our referral targets were far too low, and that tellers at his old Wells Fargo branch had to get TEN TIMES more referrals per quarter than we did. I remember specifically replying in shock, "how are they able to do that without having to resort to something shady?" He was upset with my reply, and ensured me that I was dead wrong. When the scandal broke, it didn't surprise me at all.

[@autumnrain1892]

Wells Fargo has opened up a load of call centers overseas and cut hours for their U.S. reps because they don't need to pay people overseas as much. They are closing U.S. call centers, laying people off, and moving everything (besides customer service for the rich) over to India or the Philippines. Idaho call center is closed, Utah Everyday Banking is now closed. Everywhere else to follow. This is exactly what American Express did. It's sad when the people that got them through all their underhanded deals have their job shipped overseas. WF cares about their investors and the bottom line. They don't care about small accounts or their people. Just be kind to your reps when/if you call. They are scared that they are next.

[@johnnyestrada4687]

I worked there over a decade ago, they used to force us to bring a new customer in once a week, usually family members. They didn’t even need to be there in person, all we needed was their personal info. I remember an elderly employee getting yelled at and her job threatened for not forcing a family member to open an account! If you didn’t bring a new account in, and/or meet your goals you would be in big trouble! Worked there for 7 years, customers liked me, and I made my goals the right way. I would never work there again. It was a nightmare. One time I didn’t meet my goal as a personal banker, and the district manager sat inches from me as I presented a young adult 3 accounts, I think that customer, opened the accounts because she saw my district manager in close proximity, just sitting there listening to our conversation. I got a compensation check, from the class law suit , but it didn’t make up for the PTSD that job caused

I worked at Wachovia for a few years and then Wells Fargo. Two different company cultures. Wachovia treated us with respect and Wells Fargo treated us like sales slaves for “solutions”. Threatening my job all the time. The hardest part Wachovia management teams how to transition to was the sales pressure to their teams below them. They had a had time themselves. I never opened fake accounts to keep my job, I was a teller. Did I refer new accounts- when needed and obvious. I wasn’t a sales person and that’s the problem. Wells Fargo thought we were insurance agents and they wanted more and more policies! One of the worst work environments to work in. Jump into January was a nightmare!

[@onebridge7231]

Lol! Wachovia was bought by WFC because Wachovia was failing during the Great Recession because of the bad mortgages they bought. Wachovia bought AG Edwards in my hometown of St. Louis and fired 300 researchers in which the leaders were against the buyout because of Wachovia’s poor risk analysis over investments. Wachovia had sub-par managers at best. WFC was ruined once they were bought out by Norwest and the Norwest managers ruined the company tarnishing the Wells Fargo brand. WFC has sub-par middle level management, but the C-Suite is a complete turnover of JPM executives.

As a consumer not in the banking industry, how do I know which banks *aren't* run by crooks? I don't want to keep my accounts at Wells Fargo, but how do I know if any alternative is any better? But more: I really want to know why people aren't in jail. This is how law enforcement works in this country. If a poor person commits a crime, then limitless brutality is ignored. If a bank rips people off systematically for over a decade, it's at worst "oh please Mr. Criminal, let us punish you a little bit" and the fine amounts to the metaphorical loose change behind the company's sofa cushions. The company should forfeit every penny they made from their illegal activity, and then a penalty should be on top of that; otherwise the company has made a net profit from their criminal activity. If the executives knew, they belong in jail. If they didn't know, then they're incompetent and shouldn't be allowed in any position of fiduciary trust. If the board of directors knew, they're accomplices; if they didn't, they were failing in their oversight and shouldn't be allowed to be on any board of directors. "What about the shareholders, they didn't do anything wrong ...". Yeah, well they shouldn't vote to put crooks in their executive suite or BoD. I'm really outraged that people in positions of authority always find a weasely mealy-mouthed B.S. excuse for the inexcusable, and the media and the voters always find a reason for shrugging our shoulders and looking the other way.

This behavior should surprise no one and Wells Fargo could not possibly be alone within their industry regarding these types of practices The fact is there is zero incentive for these executives to serve a public whose only way of rewarding them is with continued, blind allegiance. Absent any moral conscience, they take their chances in the areas where incentives do exist, such as criminal behavior, knowing that even if they're caught the punishment will be comparably minimal, as demonstrated here. "Limiting their growth" took away neither these executives freedom or multi-million dollar salaries. Our government allows the cycle to continue and we allow our legislators to remain in power.

Wells Fargo is reshaping itself and it had to. I sold out of it a couple of years ago after they reinstituted the dividend but at a severely lower rate but they are doing what is needed to be done and heading in the right direction, while i still haven't grabbed any shares i am still watching it as it reshapes itself, either way it is heading in the right direction.

WFB is a Great Brand with hardworking middle managers and staff. Unfortunately, Charlie is missing the point of identifying the problem with his retail banking senior management team. The problem still exists with his executives three levels down from him. RPs and the two levels above need to be restructured and managed in a much effective manner. Lots of favoritism and mismanagement prevail at the highest level.

Problem with US business thinking is the pursuit of unlimited growth. That’s unrealistic. Build something good, sustain it, take care of employees and customers, and you will last forever. Shareholders should be content with a steady dividend payout, and not be looking into quarterly growth false expectations

I was with Wachovia Bank when Wells Fargo took over. It was always an issue about when a check deposit from my rents would clear (which could take days) as opposed to when my personal checks would come in to pay my bills. Why did it take days to give me credit for deposits, but only hours for debits? I remember wrangling with one of the tellers about the fact that the money was already there when my checks would bounce. "It's not cleared yet," is what they would tell me. Thing is, they could never tell me when the deposits WOULD clear. They were vague. Even though they were forced to change that "policy" of dragging their feet on deposits, I never saw a penny of late charges returned to me. It was around the same time that it came out that they were creating fake accounts, and opening accounts in customer's names that they never asked for. I was hoping the bank would be forced out of business by the federal government, but the crooks were allowed to continue to work it.

Okay an "Average" of 25% pay increase really gets skewed when the million dollar increases for the higher-ups are the ones that bring that percentage up.

[@miralomagal]

I think it is inaccurate to say the Wells Fargo Bank employees did this. The supervisors and managers would stand over the employees of the bank and coerce them into opening accounts customers never wanted or asked to open. It was rewarded if a customer service rep transferred a customer to another department to sell them more products. It was a toxic work environment that a family member of mine would not participate in because it was dishonest and despicable. Sadly most of the employees did as they feared losing their job. The pressure to make the goals came from the top (now fired) down to the managers/supervisors. It used to be a good place to work.

[@j.c.maxena5352]

There are folks in the comments saying that they had great personal experiences with Wells Fargo but they do not realize the historical and implicit actions of Wells Fargo have hurt whole communities. They have discriminated against their Black and Brown home loan borrowers, charged fees which was their own fault, and opened fake accounts which also means they are deficient in preventing money laundering. This is just a portion of the harm caused by Wells Fargo.

[@residentevil4life]

This bank honestly deserves to burn to the ground after all the scummy things they have been exposed for doing in just the last 5 years alone. I can understand anyone who is locked in but you'd have to be nuts to open an account with them now

[@babehc]

I applied for wells fargo credit card not too long ago and they asked for my paystub. Wtf? Never have I had to provide paystub to obtain credit cards. I have several credit cards with good credit score. Then I went to their branch to close my checking account with them, they told my they couldn’t because there were no bankers at the time. No bankers at 2 pm on a Tuesday? You serious? And why on earth do they need a banker to do that? A teller at Chase closed my chase checking account for me.

If nobody went to jail for any substantial amount of time then this is a waste of more of our money and time. If the rich can pay a fine and never go behind bars then they are just paying a fee to break the law. If you charged a $1000 fine for stealing $10000 then they will never stop stealing.
