Hi all,

I have an interview at a European bank. I am trying to determine culture - basically I want to avoid culture with nepotism, backstabbing, disrespectful colleagues. What kinds of questions can I ask that will help me infer the work environment?

I received a verbal offer for a VP position at CCB line of business at JPMC in NYC two weeks ago. The recruiter asked for salary expectations but there was no number set. It’s been two weeks since and complete radio silence. I sent an email to a hiring manager a week ago but received no reply. It’s August so people could be on vacation but this is really strange.
