I think you're right; I was referring to upper management (as was fludlight in the original post I responded to), you are discussing branch managers. I agree that branch managers were involved. I agree with you that if the firings happen as alleged, that's a problem. But note Matt Levine's skepticism, which I share: But I wonder how many of the 5,300 people fired by Wells Fargo for creating fake accounts now claim that they were actually fired in retaliation for refusing to create fake accounts?...Everyone I've seen or heard interviewed about the scandal describes seeing people create fake accounts, but not doing it themselves. By describing the bank as a victim, I meant the shareholders.
