How to dress for back-office/middle-office at a BB
I start tomorrow at a BB's regulatory department in the South. Should I ditch the blazer (navy along with pants BTW) and stick with a dress shirt+tie? Do the pants have to be navy?
I feel like I look better with the blazer + no tie, but this isn't acceptable, right?
