Advancement is available if you have the right connections
Client Account Manager II (Former Employee), Charlotte, NC –
Pros: good benefits, constant challenge in meeting deadlines and having little projects to work on the side, being able to establish good relationships with my clients and consultants.
Cons: pressure to be perfect in all things in order to a annual pay increase.
My last position with Wells Fargo was a very stressful, deadline driven, 100% accuracy required job. These were things that were directly attached to the management for which I worked. I enjoyed my job (as I do all my jobs) and looked forward to going to work for the most part. I was able to mesh with most of my co-workers, however, the younger ones – more...  seemed to have a clique of their own. This didn't really bother me, since I understood the age difference and when they had more complicated issues, they felt comfortable to come to me for assistance. Contact with my clients on a daily basis was an absolute. After all, they deserved the consideration of being updated on any issue and reassurance that their issue was not falling between the cracks. I provided all documents, presentations and other clerical needs for my consultants. I found that routine tasks were the basis of my job and looked forward to doing special projects or system testing. – less

I was expecting more out of a big company...
Quality Assurance Analyst (Former Employee), Des Moines, IA –
Pros: big reputation, good benefits.
Cons: pay below market average.
They tell you "we all started from the bottom" and expect you to climb the ladder one step at the time... But this means that you need to jump many hoops without tripping in order to get there... making it impossible. Besides, they let you go in a heartbeat if there is no need for you.

All the time invested, and all the effort you did means nothing – more...  if your boss or your team don't like you. The job is given to the most popular "team member", not necessarily the most capable one. Also, you better not be a complainer, or you get it worse. – less

Not Bad Not Great
Teller (Former Employee), Brenham, TX –
Pros: no heavy lifting, mostly sitting, free lunches sometimes
Cons: pressure to open new accounts, intense
The traffic would pick up at 7am in the motor bank. The lobby area around 1045 am. Mostly simple banking transactions, mostly sitting around waiting for lunch. I learned about banking policies and how they change fairly quick within a month or two time. Management was very standoffish until they got pressure form the top to get more new accounts, credit – more...  cards, and online bank customers, which was hard because it is a small town. Plus it made for a a very competitive atmosphere for those who need job security( mostly women in their mid 40s w families) very cutthroat among the ladies. Co workers were nice , but mostly fake with it. everybody in their own world mostly. The hardest part of the job is making sure your cash till balanced at the end of your shift, if its doesnt you have to retrace all of your steps from a 8 hr shift. The easiest is meeting the customers and sharing, while give them great customer service. – less

Games played based on sales quotas.
Phone Banker (Former Employee), Westlake, TX –
Pros: great benefits for the employees
Cons: being away from home for long periods of time
A typical day started lining my employees up with goals and requirements for the day. Handling all disgruntled customers and all personnel problems that would arise. Attending scheduled meetings with upper management and implementing all procedures given to my department.

The hardest part of the job was having to dismiss employees for downsizing.

Loved – more...  my customers and the interaction with them. – less

friendly and challenging
lobby teller (Former Employee), Reno, NV –
Pros: bonus, great managers
Cons: short breaks
I really enjoyed working for Wells Fargo, it was a fun place to be with my co-workers were very friendly everybody is nice and is a very respectful environment. Although the job was a bit challenging. I was required to complete a certain amount of sales each day. The thing that made it hard was that we would see the same daily costumers each day and – more...  it sometimes made it hard for us, also that not everybody trusts banks especially with this economy now days. I still worked my best regardless of the situation and obstacles. I never quit trying and I always reached my goals in sales. – less

Bank Teller (Former Employee), Rancho Palos Verdes, CA –
Pros: fun environment at work
Cons: sales
As a teller sales and customer service would be the most important thing to focus on and assuring that my cash drawer balance daily. My co-workers worked as a team and always made work a fun environment.The part I found difficult with this position was the sales part of it. The most enjoyable part was meeting so many different people and building a – more...  relationship with some of the customers. I learned to have patience with so many different personalities. – less
