Wells Fargo CEO sorry for 'insensitive comment' on diversity

Wells Fargo & Co Chief Executive Officer Charles Scharf has apologized for making insensitive remarks around race and diversity, seeking to quell a row over his references to a shortage of talent among minority groups.

"There are many talented diverse individuals working at Wells Fargo and throughout the financial services industry and I never meant to imply otherwise," Scharf said in a statement on Wednesday. "Perhaps it's the CEO of Wells Fargo who lacks the talent to recruit Black workers," U.S. Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said in a tweet.

🤣🤣 WellsFargo keep that apology in your pocket!!! boycottwellsfargo wellsfargoceo

😒

Why apologize if it's true?🤧

WELL the CEO is Correct, cuz, the educational system stinks & is CROOKED as all hell due to a communist agenda TEACHERS UNION. U all know it to B true. 😎

they are crooked trash. Why does anyone still have an account with them?

Leave profiteering banks! JOIN YOUR LOCAL CREDIT UNION! Fuck WellsFargo Fuck BankofAmerica Fuck USBank FUCK CAPITALISM! Profiteering assholes are killing people! KillCapitalism KillTheBanks

Oh please. Wells Fargo has zero believability after the shit they’ve pulled in the past few years.

This is not the worst of their racism. Wells Fargo's tentacles reach back to U.S. chattel slavery.

(1) You cannot say anything about sensitive subjects before the highly emotional types go off the deep end. Looking at you, AOC, Twitter Crowd, etc. If you assume a bachelor’s deg is a min req (in gen), you do not have enough blacks (and Hispanics) with degrees to get to equity.

What is the percentage of minorities qualified for, and in those type of positions, and what percentage do they currently have on staff?

Oh so you can't say the truth but they expect you to give them a high profile job for being black seems racist

Countdown to “Former CEO” status.

Omg why apologize if there are not qualified people black white orange or green there are not cry me a damn river

WHERE IS HUNTER? WHERE IS HUNTER? WHERE IS HUNTER? WHERE IS HUNTER? WHERE IS HUNTER? WHERE IS HUNTER? WHERE IS HUNTER?

Nice way to describe racial bias.
