Wells Fargo reviews

Moving up can be a struggle, sometimes I question how managers got into their positions, pressure to sell can be overwhelming, compensation is mediocre for the amount of responsibility the job has. Personal Bankers are really the face of the company to most of its customers; when they have a problem we are who they see and who they expect to give them everything they ask for. It really is two jobs in one: customer service and sales. I think the pay should be higher for having so much to do. The bonuses are kind of a joke too, if you get silver in everything your bonus is only around $2000 per quarter, and almost half gets taken out for taxes. Since the Wachovia merger the company seems to have gotten more focused on meeting the bottom line than meeting our customer's expectations of their financial instutution.

Be prepared for being underpayed and underappreciated. Each year your sales goals will increase while your bonuses decrease. If you want a fairly realistic (albeit hilarious) example of the pressure one sees check out the "morning huddle" videos on youtube. The sales pressure is extremely high with little support from upper management. The upper management has either not worked at this level ever, or in a very long time. Also, I hope you enjoy being micromanaged because that seems to be the only way that upper management works.
