Pros

Geographically Wells Fargo is everywhere so you have opportunity to relocate. Overall the company is solid financially so you don't have to worry about them going under.

Cons

If you have the right skin color or gender you will go right to the front of the line for career advancement at Wells Fargo. They are very open about their desire to preferentially promote minorities and women. I'm not saying this is a bad thing but if you are a white male you are swimming against a STRONG current at this company.

Pros

Decent pay..over 15 hr..good dental and vision insurance..medical insurance is horrible high deductible over $2000..

Cons

Where do i start. PTO and attendance policy is HORRIBLE. you have to request days off in advance and there are limited hours you can request. if you are sick and miss work for whatever reason and its not scheduled in advanced, then that counts as an occurence towards you and 6 occurrences and you are fired ...no questions asked. you basically have to plan the days you will be sick in advanced and request those days. very sad hr policy. high turnonver rate in this positions always hiring because a lot of people quit. if you never worked in a call center or if you have and do not like it...RUN!! this is a terrible job, getting yelled at with back to back none stop calls. the job title is financial crime specialist II call center but they make it believe that you are mitigating fraud when really it's more like a factory production line. 90% of calls are people that "supposedly" didnt make amazonprime charges, trial offers, netflix..etc..most of the calls are not fraud just people lying that they never made the amazonprime charge. if you have a degree DO NOT WASTE your time in this position. EVERYTHING is micro manged! you are not even able to use 10 min a day in going to the restroom becuase that messes up youre "conformance" metric. everything here is about numbers and not mitigating fraud. worst job i ever had. Glorified customer service rep position.

Pros

Great brand name recognition, 6% match on 401k contributions, generous PTO, pay standard for industry

Cons

The training program is only 12 weeks long in which you are required to bring at least $250,000 in assets and 15 accounts and if you do not meet these deadlines you are fired. The only training is through webinars and two weeks in St. Louis. It is very hard to for new advisors to make it unless they are partnering with senior advisors.
