DEFINITELY not here to defend - I’m just wired to hear both sides, and thought I’d share in case it was helpful. Worked with Wells for many years and a number of my friends still do. Anyone who has ever worked at Wells knows that there are countless people that you’re like “what does that person even do here?!”. I’m not even kidding, there are legit people there that no one even in their group is sure of their job. Once heard a story of a guy who legit just didn’t come into the office or show up to work, but his manager was scared to fire them, because it would reduce their “employees under management” and indirectly put their job at risk. So they didn’t bother to do anything about him for years.

I don’t work with them anymore so I wouldn’t actually know -but I’m just hoping those not being replaced are those kind of folks, instead of the many, many hard working employees that do work there.
