38 years old German boomer here: I can confirm and I repeat I can positively confirm that this>>11902614, >>11902576 and this >>11902721 describes in the most accurate fashion how things really are in corporate banking in Germany. It is pure hell: Brain degrading stupidity everywhere and basically everything that happens painfully reminds one of how useless these jobs are.

I was working in one of the 10 biggest banks in Germany btw.

I got used to being called to help boomers join conference calls, they never wanted to read manuals/guides. Yet I used to be blamed for the slow adoption of the conferencing infrastructure.
