@ae - I recently came across a LinkedIn post that took me by the same surprise. It seems RV is recognizing a long-tenured, well-respected associate of 50 years. However, it seems a bit contradictory as this might be a way of notifying HR to put him on 'the list.'
It's unfortunate that long-tenured associates, particularly those who are high-priced in NYC, aren't held in high regard by the current regime. It's truly shameful that those who have built the culture are being marginalized and falsely celebrated, while the regime takes credit for their own so-called servanthood.
In reality, these long-tenured associates are often discarded as waste soon after the regime has had their fill, only to enjoy hearing their boot-licking sycophants praise their so-called exceptional servant leadership.
Honestly, I doubt that this 50-year associate will be around to celebrate his 51st anniversary with BNY. I'll even bet you a FREE Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte on it!
