How do you think you got a job there? It's funny to see you complaining about the 'quality' of your future colleagues when you are a 'non-target with a dismal GPA'. Maybe they will be complaining about the quality of you when you join.

I mean, what do you want us to say? You're working a back office job in (presumably) a low wage/low cost of living town. It doesn't exactly lead to master of the universe positions.

Sorry for being late to the game on this one, I didn't receive a notification for any of the replies. But I also laughed pretty hard at Dick Fuld's comment and honestly, I don't know what I was expecting as far as pointers/advise. I feel like it is the most logical choice to accept the offer solely to have DB on the resume, in addition to it being the only FT offer, but who the fuck knows.

What are your long term goals? Do you want to stay in the South (inc. ATL, Char, or Miami)?
 

you sound like a douche canoe. there's a large operations center where I am and some good friends of mine worked there and still do. many of those ops centers are way too big to generalize the way you are. it's probably group specific and most of those places have turnover every year so it could've sucked 1 year ago but it could be sweet now.

either way, keep an open mind and thank your lucky stars you're in the southeast.
