Mediocre managers with mediocre long-stayers - Assistant Vice-President Citi Employee Review

Most people are mediocre at best. The really good employees don't get the necessary recognition and very soon they leave for greener pastures. If you go above and beyond, you don't get more recognition, pay or promotion, you just get more work instead. The amount of performance bonus paid out is laughable - that is EXACTLY why there are so many mediocre people!
