When the hiring manager mentioned that when layoffs happened there, that they had often stepped in and stopped some of a few who they felt were really hard working from being let go. I wonder do many managers do this?

I don't know about you, but it's hard to focus on my annual review right now especially after the unhelpful townhall meeting.

Will the reorg eliminate the SVP position like in other large banks? SVP is indeed a bloated title and position, the tasks/fuy of which are usually also executed by VPs
