Undercover Brother: Will Vikram Take Up The Challenge?
On the popularity Undercover Boss, wherein CEO's of various companies "slip into the ranks" of their company alongside entry level employees to get a little taste of how the other half of their firm lives, Vikram Pandit has been nominated to appear on an episode of the show. Obviously, seeing Pandito pose as a first year analyst would be phenomenal, and a thrill for the bank's junior rainmakers. There would be night-before jitters, of course, and it'd be hard to watch Uncle Vik sweat as he gets reamed out for screwing up his first pitch book, but clearly that'd be part of the fun. Unfortunately, it's unlikely that VP will accept the offer, unless he's directed to do so by Prince Alwaleed as part the new mandate for 2010 (Operation Make This Thing Work). Rest assured we're working on it, but in the event Vikram chooses to remain ensconced in his zen garden-less office, who would you like to see cast on the show? Lloyd Blankfein rank and filing with the mini-Squid? Stevie mixing it up with the back office and later, forced to make an important decision? Lenny Dykstra reporting for duty as a junior trader at Nails Investment Corp? Ken? Jamie? Cliff? And what do you want them to have to do once they're when they're down there? No wrong answers on this one.
