Join Us! Our new Union is growing! Branch workers in 11 states have won union elections and are preparing to negotiate a union contract to improve our wages and working conditions because:

We are stressed out and demand improvements to our working conditions in order for us to prevail at making Wells Fargo a great bank.

As bank workers across the United States, we keep branches open, solve customers’ problems, process and underwrite loans, help families who have fallen behind on their mortgage payments, protect the bank from financial crimes and money laundering, ensure communications comply with federal regulations, help consumers obtain the financial products they need to thrive and much, much more.

Many of us have endured inhumane sales goals, performance metrics and workloads for years, including a toxic culture that caused severe damage to our mental and physical health. Some of us are newer to the bank. But we all remain dedicated to repairing Wells Fargo’s tattered reputation by turning words into action. Providing the best customer care must not be just a marketing slogan. We need the tools, support and protections that enable us to succeed.

Unfortunately, too often we feel disrespected and an afterthought. We are required to solve complex customer problems and move on to the next in a few short minutes or risk disciplinary action and losing out on our incentive pay. We have to help the same volume of customers at our branch - yes many people still visit bank branches - with fewer staff. The list goes on and on.

Meanwhile, Wells Fargo CEO "chainsaw" Charlie Scharf gave himself an 18% raise of $4.5 million for total compensation of $29 million in 2023 at the same time workers are lucky to have received a 1-2% raise with many tenured employees receiving raises of only a few pennies.

We Demand the Following

1. A fair raise for ALL employees commensurate with the 30% increase to the starting minimum wage.
2. Adequate staffing levels to reduce stress levels, enable humane workloads and set attainable performance metrics.
3. Safe and flexible work arrangements along with time-off benefits that recognize all of our needs, duties and responsibilities.  
4. Respect our right to organize a UNION so we can have an independent voice at work free from fear of retaliation or harassment.
