WF changing office after summer
I will be interning at WF this summer in a group that is split between nyc and Charlotte. Does anyone have experience in changing offices after receiving a FT offer?

Please take this with a grain of salt as I dont work there, but from what I've heard WF is pretty flexible with group and office laterals.
Seen a lot of people make the switch after their summer. Some groups are more receptive to it than others.

Work at WF - Can confirm it is very doable and groups are very open to you moving geography in the same group and to a different group. I personally did this and didn't face any backlash or difficulty. Do note though - moving from CLT to NYC is a very desired move for SAs and it can be competitive. Your best bet is to kill it within your group, build a good rep with the NY team and talk to your development officer at the 3/4 point of the summer about it. The better you are the more likely the move will be.
With the firm as well, can second this
Have you seen summer associates do this as well? We only have a handful of summer associates in my group and I know some want to be in CLT so I’m hoping that makes it easier.
I haven't seen this with associates but I haven't known any who tried to make the move either so I would imagine it isn't impossible. I would, however, imagine it would be more difficult for associates as there are fewer summer associates than summer analysts in many groups and thus less spots for associates to potentially move into vs analysts. I would kill the first half of the summer and discuss with your development officer. Wells would rather you move within the firm then lose you and their investment in you.
Did you ask to move after you got the offer or before?
I started before getting the offer with some basic networking and shopping around to get a feel but the process really starts once you get your offer
