Remained “unnoticed” for 4 days

The cause of Denise Prudhomme’s death is still pending and will be determined by the local coroner.

Following the death of 60-year-old Wells Fargo employee Denise Prudhomme, who was found dead in her Arizona office just days after starting work in August, a union pulled no punches when it came to the company.

In the statement, which The Arizona Republic and NBC affiliate KPNX, a union representing Wells Fargo workers, said: “We are saddened and outraged by the devastating tragedy and loss of our colleague Denise Prudhomme, who worked as a Business Execution Consultant in the corporate banking division in Tempe, Arizona.”

Although the union has been referred to by the media as “Wells Fargo Workers United,” its website says it is called “Communications Workers of America,” and it represents 19 branches across the country but no corporate employees like Prudhomme.

“The preliminary investigation has revealed no obvious signs of foul play,” police said. The cause of death, which will be determined by the county medical examiner, is still pending.

“Denise was the only person on her team in Tempe. This may be one of the reasons why her desk was in an area of ​​the building where there was barely any space and no one checked on her for four days,” the union said in its statement, according to the media. “Wells Fargo monitors our every move and keystroke using remote electronic technologies – ostensibly to evaluate our productivity – and fires us if we are caught not making enough keystrokes on our computers; yet Denise remained unnoticed at her desk for four days.”

“The contradictory nature of electronic surveillance compared to an undetected death sheds light on the reality of what it means to be a Wells Fargo employee,” they added.

The union, which made a number of demands, further stated: “The solution is not more surveillance, but ensuring that we are all involved in a supportive work environment and not relegated to a back office.”

In a statement, a Wells Fargo spokesperson told PEOPLE the company was “deeply saddened by the loss of our colleague.”

“Our thoughts are with her family and loved ones and we have been in touch to ensure they are well supported during this difficult time,” the spokesperson added. “We encourage employees with special concerns to continue to share their feedback with us as this helps us build a stronger business.”
