Everyone is vp in the banks

If going into FS, pretty good. Seems like a lot of VP's in FS companies. I know a guy who went from Sr. Associate (close to Mgr promotion) to a VP role with a bank

KPMG1, who did that guy fare? Is he still with the same company? Worried about overreaching

Agree. Everyone is VP in banks. Doesn't mean anything. Assistant VPs are like Analysts and Analysts are normally interns.

Everyone is a VP in a bank. Its like the second prkmotion. Now if you move into VP of a banks front office (IB) that's impressive

He's still there, I think been about a year. He's done well, I don't think it's an overreach. Like many here are saying, lots of VP's in banks. I think it's sort of their manager equivalent in many cases.

I received a take home case study for a strategic finance position. They gave me historical statements for the last 3 years (quarterly) and asked for insights/observations and opportunities/trends. What should I be observing here? I’m used to just modeling exams but I’m not sure how to proceed here. They didn’t give industry but this looks like retail store financials when they are a software company....

My dilemma:

Have an offer at a reputable MM bank but probably pretty sweaty. Worth the move?

So someone I know asked HR about a boot policy. When he found out that there wasn’t one, but his boss said there was (who gave the guys $ for boots and the claimed it on his expense reimbursements as something else) the boss got mad at him for askingHR (and in trouble for the expense reimbursements) and then 2 days later laid off my friend. There appears to be no notice of bad performance and this person always was the first person on the job site ready to work. Thoughts?

Any SAP analytics cloud developer here? Quick query, client wants a column root causes ..now this column is not available in S/4..now the S/4 team is not cooperative enough.

My leads suggested SAC has comments option. However comments are not going to help users either. Because it will not show graphically which root causes contribute the most.

So my question is now, does SAC have an in built excel option which would allow users to enter root causes across materials and then SAC refresh this
