Pros

The resources they give you to success and the training is top notch, second to no other financial institution in the industry. They also have several support and managerial staff that really do encourage the highest level of success in meeting your goals.

Cons

It is a day to day managed company. Sometimes you feel as if you are underperforming if you have had one bad day.

Pros

Wells Fargo is an excellent employer and company to work for. I enjoy my job, my coworkers and I have confidence in senior management at Wells Fargo. I am especially impressed how Wells Fargo has been able to keep its head held high during the financial crisis while other financial institutions have struggled so severely due to sales and management oversight.

Cons

While I feel Wells Fargo promotes within, I feel they do not fairly compensate internal candidates. Many employees feel they need to leave and then come back to receive a substantial increase – one over 15%.

Pros

This is a company that encourages team members to learn as much as possible and there is constant conversation around my career path. As a manager it is a feather in my cap to have one of my employees promoted. I really would encourage anyone with a drive to apply and start their career or second career with Wells Fargo, if you work hard, the sky's the limit. The benifits package is as good as I have seen in the market and that includes four weeks of personal time a year. As well as the prestige of working for a Fourtune 50 company. So that is why I would recomend Wells Fargo Bank to everyone.

Cons

This is a hard one for me, because I really don't have a lot to say that is negative as far as Wells Fargo goes. I guess the first thing that I would say is that there are managers that become so obsessed with sales that they run off good people and they can even put so much pressure on the employees that they resort to unethical behaviors, which IS NOT what Wells Fargo is all about. Sometimes upper management overlook a questionable behavior in exchange for a sale. There is a lot of pressure to make sales numbers so there is a lot of stress on an individual. I guess that is what I would say the downside is to working for Wells Fargo.
