J.P. Morgan and the art of nepotism is present everywhere you look, I had a great manager in my last job. I didn't realize how great a manager was until I left that job. and start working for JPMC, incompetence reigns here fro VP's to Directors.
Nepotism is what this bank is built on. You should have done better research before coming here if you were hoping to make it up in the ranks. Or you should have had a relative in one of the top positions. Either would have helped you.
Without management experience, Many of these people had never managed a team, and they are in all LOBs, it pays to be part of the swamp
After the latest layoffs we got a coffee machine from management, WOW!!
Most people I know here pretty much hate their jobs. They complain about the work, the people, the commute, the pay, the hours, the lack of vacation time and control over their lives
They talk about dreams and hobbies and “some day” as if it just isn’t in the cards for them. That version of life is for someone else, someone with better luck and fewer responsibilities.
99% of these people will work a job until they retire or die. Most just accept that having a job is something you simply do in life. You’re born, you grow up, you work at a job, you retire and enjoy yourself for a few years or a decade, you get old, and then you die.
Some of the poor and middle class complain about corporate control of wealth and power, and yet most of us work for those companies, buy what they sell us, watch what they create and accept their vision of the world as our reality.
This isn’t about society or what other people do. IT IS WHAT YOU DO.
Amen
