Pros

They closed the doors to their customers during the pandemic. They have great Heloc rates.

Cons

This Bank brings back the old Wells Fargo Sales culture, they push product even if the client does not need it. They do not recognize their team at all. Every call you had with your hire ups was about how many calls and appointments you made. The hire ups talk down to the branch staff, that even the tellers and bankers quit because of the sales pressure. They even want teller to make calls with out proper training and they use the same lead list. The worst onboarding experience zero training.
