Wells Fargo Jordan Creek layoffs will cut 86 jobs at the Jordan Creek campus in West Des Moines, with the losses scheduled to take effect on Dec. 26. The announcement marks the company’s largest layoff since at least Oct. 2021.
Jordan Creek campus cuts
The layoff affects one campus and one employer, not a broad companywide filing. For workers at Jordan Creek, the key change is the end date: Dec. 26 is when the jobs are slated to disappear.
That gives the affected employees a fixed timeline, but it does not answer the larger business question behind the reduction. Wells Fargo announced the job cuts without giving a reason.
West Des Moines layoff size
The comparison to Oct. 2021 is what makes this round stand out. By describing it as the largest since then, Wells Fargo set a benchmark that shows the scale of the reduction without adding any explanation for why the company chose this moment.
Israel Schuman reported the layoff details. The facts point to a concentrated cut at one location, with 86 workers tied to the same campus and the same date.
Dec. 26 deadline
For employees, the practical takeaway is simple: the scheduled separation date is Dec. 26, and the affected site is the Jordan Creek campus in West Des Moines. The only confirmed next step in the record is the date on which the layoffs are set to take effect.
What Wells Fargo has not said is why those 86 jobs are being eliminated. That missing explanation is now the central unanswered part of the story.
