Bank of America

I have heard some teams are good to work on; they will help you to improve yourself.

I used to enjoy working here and looked forward to going to work.

I used to enjoy what I did here. I loved to create and design software. I am good at it.

Several years ago, our management structure changed. I was taken off coding and asked to lead the others. Not to be their manager, but to tech lead them. This was okay for a short time, until the managers started giving me their governance stuff to do while they would design and give code advice.

The SVP level and below decided they should be deep in the details of all the projects, micro-managing all aspects of them.

I have learned other software languages to see if I could find another area in the bank to move to. It seems here, the only way out/off the team is to leave the bank and maybe come back later.

I thought the managers were supposed to help you with your career here?

The top executives should check on what is really going on in the bottom layers.

So much money wasted on bogus items/projects just to keep the SVPs busy and looking good.
