   Here’s my question – raise your hand if you’ve met people who work at “buyside” institutions such as AllianceBernstein, BlackRock, et al. and walked away unimpressed?
   Why the f*ck do people give these clowns money? It took this brotha 3 weeks to set up his 401K at Pru because some as*hat couldn’t figure out how to work their system. We blame HBS grads when they mis-time their multi-billion dollar portfolios yet fail to hold culpabable the B-average lifers who squander trillions?
   Lemme hear you say – that ain’t right.

   Bess,
   I don’t know why you think its funny to report that a “bunch of nameless employees” will be laid off. I guess it makes you feel more important.

   It’s pretty shitty when the firm announces the layoffs to the public before their employees…

   @6, it’s all she can do, as I’m sure she realizes that she contributes absolutely nothing to this world.
   She is a fucking finance gossip reporter – what a worthless existence.

    No a surprising announcement as their stock is at an all time low. The retail division is completly mismanaged. Hope those “nameless employees” include most senior management of ABI.

    Not that I’ve heard so far. I had been there for several years and did most of my work for the Private Client side, which was the strongest of the group. Didn’t keep me from the chop.

    Hey, I resent being called a “nameless person”. I was among the first round of peeps let go from AB.
