For the VPs and above people in this bowl. Do you feel like associates have it “easy” now days compared to when you were associates?

The A to A’s do. Some of the ones I’ve met are super bad - incomplete client presentations just before the meeting (I’m taking full blown slides not even started), no follow through on execution, general disrespect to others on the team but plenty of 🍑 kissing to senior mgmt, will not take direction from vps, lack basic knowledge on bonds/fixed income. The ones who do this usually got their job through their network or mommy/daddy’s network though (big issue here). (These are also the ones that fail Series exams 🤦‍♂️). The ones hired legitimately have been fine.

That’s because every analyst who wants to stick around at BofA can. No rigor to the associate promotion process

For sure. But are lacking some key skills from older generations

I’m trying really hard to not take on a ‘these kids these days’ mentality. Everything is different from then versus now. For everything that could be easier, something else is probably harder. Plus everything is always easier when you aren’t doing it anymore.

They throw around titles of VP, AVP etc, they are really meaningless at Citigroup in Tampa. They give out titles to anyone. They are not accountable for their job and the salaries dont seem to match. If I was not a VP or AVP or even ever received my 50K/year for 20 hours/day. Whya re they still stalking my family after being desabled and jailed. Charge Collin Jordan, Miriam Ortiz and Legal and General. They are not there for Citibank or Tampas benefit.

You dumped WWIII oand your responsiblities on a Client Service Officer. How much do you get paid for what you did to me and my family?

I can really use some direction. My background, I've worked 2 years in strategy and am currently coming off an exhausting year 2 in investment banking.

Everybody says there's exit-ops aplenty, but I find myself with less options and even more picky than I did as an ambitious T2 undergrad student. Where do I go from here?
