These folks simply have goofy titles.
I used to have one of the world's largest banks (by AUM) as a client. They had over 200 "Vice Presidents" in one building, as it basically was their preferred title for "manager".
- jrockway 15y agoAt Bank of America, VP was one title below most managers. VP basically meant "didn't get completely fucked in the offer negotiation process".
- jmount 15y agoBank VP is a different situation, most branches can not issues loans without a VP present- so there are many people with such title. There is standard and there no confusion that this is a high title in banking. Other titles like "Executive VP" are used to identify actual officers. That being said- I would still be interested in hearing if everybody at Yahoo is a director and/or a VP.
