>Wells Fargo put her onto a permanent blacklist that others in the industry pay attention to - she can't get a job anywhere else.

I just listened to this episode last night, by chance.

She speculates that she is on a blacklist, because she's having trouble finding work. But there's a more charitable (to the other banks) explanaton: she was a very low level employee who, true or not, just got fired for a massive fraud under investigation in the public eye. Maybe they're simply thinking "this might not be the best hire right now" and move to the next resume, of which there are probably many.

Because, as much as people in management are responsible, there were also front line employees actively committing fraud here. They are also responsible. In fact more so. Her case is not the norm.
