- inferiorhuman 4y agoSure. The first time around at megacorp I left shortly before a reorg that demoted my manager to IC status. He was still a manager when I returned but a manager with no direct reports.
- mindentropy 4y ago> I can't tell you how many 'vice presidents' are in my rolodex Yes I have seen this. This person was boasting about being a "Vice President" and then I see almost everyone is a VP. What is up with this?
- wbl 4y agoSuppose you are the CEO of a bottle cap company in the Midwest. Whose call you going to take, a VP at Goldman or a junior banker at Goldman?
- rockinghigh 4y agoVice President at financial companies is just a mid-senior title. Similar to L4/L5 at Google. There is no expectation of managing people.
- decafninja 4y agoMy resume and LinkedIn original had "vice president" as my title (as a bank SWE). It seemed to be detrimental to finding a job at a tech company, so I've long since replaced it with just "senior software engineer" to much better results. One FAANG hiring manager outright told me he found it very intimidating.
