- AlexTWithBeard 8y ago... unless you're being interviewed for a position in human resources. They will tell you that all the bank is doing is simply putting right people in right places an managing them wisely.

I'd be surprised if this is how Citi or Credit Suisse see themselves :-)
- joshuamorton 8y agoSurprise! (No seriously). I was recently in a loop with Goldman Sachs, Citi, cap1 and some others, and they all said this. And granted, some really were. Some were not.
- fjp 8y agoWhen I was interning at Allstate 5 years ago, they were saying this BS. Meanwhile it took 5 weeks of my 12 week internship to get all the system and software access I needed to get my dev environment set up.
