Wells Fargo & Co has fired more than a dozen employees for allegedly faking work. This decision follows an investigation by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, as reported by Bloomberg (thanks TheGuardian).
The bank discovered that these employees used devices like mouse movers or mouse jigglers. These devices simulate keyboard activity to create the impression of active work. The exact locations of these employees, whether working from home or the office, remain unclear.
A Wells Fargo spokesperson stated, “Wells Fargo holds employees to the highest standards and does not tolerate unethical behavior.”
After the pandemic in 2022, Wells Fargo implemented a hybrid flexible model, requiring employees to return to the office. This approach aligns with other major banks. For instance, Bank of America sent letters of education to employees in January, warning of disciplinary action for failing to return to the office. Goldman Sachs also required its employees to work in the office five days a week.
This incident underscores the challenges companies face in maintaining productivity and ethical standards in a hybrid work environment.
