They're stable at the moment. Within the banking industry, they are still holding steady while others are crashing and burning. Of course, a lot of the stability is dependent upon which LOB (Line of Business) you work in.

Drop the military mentality where it exists. People are not plug and play and need more than "that's your job, soldier."
