Why Are There So Many Jerks In Fianance

Ok I work in IT and on the desk generating reports and sucking and processing data - I ve done this at a number of banks and without fail (even at GS) the people on the desk are on average and to a large extent total jerks!!

They will claim stuff is crucial when its not - Send emails asking for explanations of why reports are not on time and not bother reading responses and generally not answer any questions you might have instead expecting you find out for yourself

Is this normal in all IB's?? I might seriously think about joining RBS.

FWIW I m currently at BNP Paribas having turned down an offer from SocGen about 8 months ago - I am wondering whether to get out of finance and jump onto a SC goverment contract
