Pros

The company provides opportunities to work on critical projects and gain exposure to different technologies. Colleagues are generally supportive and there are opportunities to learn and grow technically. But it all depends on your manager to assign the work

Cons

Management practices within some teams can be inconsistent. Employee concerns are not always handle with the level of empathy and professionalism expected. There have been instances where confidentiality around employee discussions appeared to be compromised,leading to reduced trust within team.Work-life balance and flexibilty can also be challenging , particularly during personal or family emergencies, where managerial support may vary significantly. Performance discussions and feedback processes could be more transparent and objective. Employees would benefit from a more supportive leadership culture that encourages open communication without fear of negative repercussions. After being raised concerns multiple times HR and Skip level managers are comeback and ask for the documentation of being targeted and they won't understand your emotional well being been tested the entire time

Pros

Good ALM team to work for and also very supportive ALM corporate Risk Business team.

Cons

I was a past employee of Wells Fargo. We have a change in management I past years and the current manager is more of a people manager who do not understand the functionality and the code where lot of questions are asked with the team by him that why we are doing this all the time ? He keep on putting his team under the bus in front of the business. Also wanted to change the technology to Java since the application was running smoothly in .NET and is deployed in cloud successfully. He keeps on creating problems for the team that the application is slow and UI layouts are old and performance is slow whereas the application is upgraded to .NET 8 and all the libraries are also updated. In production the application is very much responsive and fast and since he do not like .NET and is a Java person, he constantly creates lot of issues for the team. Personally I am not against any technology but creating and spreading false information is detrimental to the team and to the business. He also take care of the credit or work performed by the team to his own .

Pros

Benefits (but cost creeping up and coverage creeping down each year), Good Morale Both Management and Coworkers, and Honestly a Great Company.

Cons

Cross Selling is the only focus now, firing employees who are great at their job in every area that should matter but if the cross selling results are not meeting the ever ridiculous quota (which continues to rise) than you may not have a job next month. Expectation for customers to say yes to cross selling, leaving you with no real control of your job security. Stress!
