VP - Rant

Been an associate for a while now but my VP is a serious dick.

We sit down for every project and we go through assumptions/ways to model certain items.

Make revisions back and forth and then during the final review before presenting it to the MD, she pinpoints hundreds of so-called errors when we specifically talked about these nuances and the treatment of these items. Then proceeds to put the blame on me and expresses dissatisfaction to the MD.

I never do this to my analyst and can understand why someone would do this.

She sounds like a real bitch. But yeah would echo what the other guy said, buck stops with the VP.

I’d try to have a private meeting with the MD to go over the model (without the VP) and see what he says.
