Hello Wil-Mottians,Recently I got a job offer from a Very Big Bank in the big apple. (trading.) The base salary on offer was less than half of what I'm making now. Strangely, they absolutely would not discuss bonuses at all, as if they didn't exist.Remember that episode of Seinfeld where Costanza decided he would start behaving the *opposite* of what his instincts/habits told him? Similarly, I resisted the urge to tell the company to fuck themselves. Instead I tried to act like a gentleman, and declined politely.Is it me, or have others seen this lately? The reluctance to discuss bonuses was really weird, and the whole thing seemed really low-rent.
