This interview was on my calendar. I showed up. JPM management must have had the interview on their calendar, as they were physically present.I would normally not have a phone on during an interview, but I most certainly would not answer it if I did. If I ‘unintentionally’ (?) answered a call or read a text message, I most certainly would apologize for the interruption. My phone was off. After a while of the manager’s divided attention, I was asked if there were any questions. I thought about suggesting that we talk some other time and chalk the time up as interview practice, but I asked the following question: How engaged are you in the affairs of your department? The answer? Not at all. Though my manager would me to become more engaged, I simply do not have the time. It appeared to me that both this manager and her manager were out of control. Disengaged management. An absence of accountability and responsibility. A corporate malfeasance recidivist. I used to have an account with the bank. It took 3 tries to close it out. I probably could have done it myself, but I am the customer, after all. While waiting in a branch office during the third attempt to close my account accurately, I approached a CSR to improve my understanding on how this bank could get itself into so much trouble. I was informed that the regulatory agencies were equally to blame; they should have been more diligent in their policing and enforcement. Why would I, who takes pride in what I do, want to work for a company that apparently does not, to the tune of $26 billion – with a ‘B’ – dollars, so far. In fact, why would you even invest in this company?
