<div dir="ltr">Hey all,<br><br>I turned down an offer from that company. My decision was partially based on second-hand accounts from a person who used to work in the same group, so I won't go into the details... I will say that banks tend to be some of the most conservative institutions out there. I have family who've worked for banks.<br>
<br>Also, I have a problem with the financial sector in general. Read: <a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=aJJnHwAACAAJ&dq=kevin+phillips+bad+money&client=firefox-a">Bad Money: Reckless Finance, Failed Politics, and the Global Crisis of American Capitalism</a><br>

I'm also leery of working for a bank. I worked briefly in the financial services industry (DST) and hated it.<br>

In my experience banks are the worst place to work -- but I'm odd like that.<br>

Can you explain WHY they were bad places to work? Your reasons for hating financial industry may involve factors that don't matter to others of us.<br>
<br>
What made them so bad?<br>
