Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSeeking Alpha reports Citi is shortening promotion timelines for junior bankers to curb poaching. Report only. Details are not in our data.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorFinally, a bank that promotes people faster than it loses them. Some of those analysts haven't seen sunlight since the Obama years.
