I work across the street from Wells Fargo in uptown.  Very diverse environment.

Worked there a few years. Diverse and conservative.  They move slow on technology and innovation and use bonus structures more than most banks. Meaning they take 10k or so of what a salary should be and make it attainable thru monthly bonuses. Not a bad place to work.

Try to get over to fraud or wealth mgmt in a year or so.

 

Good luck

When you interview with Wells keep in mind STAR.  Situation, Task, Action, Results.

Wells isn't bad and they pay pretty well, but I don't know the retail side of things which I have heard absolute NIGHTMARE stories about.  So be careful.  Personal banker has really insane goals.  I know for sure because of my wife at other banks over the years and the word from people is Wells has the WORST sales goals out of any of them.    So just make sure you're OK with crazy goals and a lot of stress if you are OK with being a personal banker.   When the branch manager is getting flak for not bringing in enough business the person to go is usually the PBs.    If you're going to be working at a store in a area that isn't that great, you'll also have trouble with goals.

So while everyone is right, Wells is diverse and pretty good, remember the branches (or stores they like to call them) are a whole different beast and basically, a different company.   Working uptown or at the CIC off Harris is pretty good though.

Finally got my next interview scheduled. Will be 7/6.  Info said it is a behavioral format interview.  Any advice on that??
