I have been working in this company for 9 years. I like the environment and the benefits the income is fair. What i don't like is too many changes on a fast pace without a real structure. They change their mind and the systems and tools frequently. It makes it difficult to keep up and be consistent

For worse
How's the leadership on the Operations team at Wells Fargo?
Ok, they are young so don’t have people experience, but they are very knowledgeable about the job
They couldn't lead out of a paper bag. They use negative reinforcement instead of positive reinforcement. Its frustrating when the people with the Title don't know how to lead a team properly, yet the people without a title end up leading their teams.
Managers tend to be micro managers. I would rate them a C+. More training for them is needed.

terrible
nowhere near a livable wage
15.50-17.50

Never met them but can feel the micromanaging.
