Wells Fargo Auto Finance Chester, Pa Lays off

Filed in National by on August 5, 2008

My sources are telling me that over 150 people were laid off from the Wells Fargo Auto Finance division in Chester, Pa today.  Rumors have swelled that up to a 1000 people will be laid off over the course of the coming month.   Folks in Allentown were laid off as well as a small office in Boise today too.  Quietly, this $24billion branch of Wells Fargo bank is slowly collapsing and will ultimately become one big write off to the company in the next few years. 

Just a minor bump in the road though, the economy is in a slow down.
