What fuckery is this? "IBD Talent Manager" at Goldman
Goldman is hiring "IBD Talent Managers" in London, NY and SFO. What is this - a new babysitting management layer? Has this been around for a while or might it be a reaction to the 13?

Seems like they are making the role of staffer it’s own job with some additions. Probably have check ins often, their job to help you build the career you want I guess
Yeah a lot of this shit is usually done by VPs so I guess they’re looking for people to do this so VPs can focus more on earning business to justify their pay rises. Will be interesting to see how these guys get promoted within the wider teams
HR is getting more powerful day by day.
The last thing you would want is your day to day development become such an administrative process.
Also your boss telling you to get better at something? That could possibly be done by these guys by a formal process.
