I go into my BOA a couple times a week...I like the ladies there and hope I am helping to keep their jobs.
Maybe I’ll close my Bank of Amigo credit card now that I don’t need it to help their slide into bankruptcy along. I wonder if keeping it open with a zero balance be more productive?
I wonder if Bank of America Amigo is going to hire a bunch of illegal aliens to do the work? Or are they just going to send the jobs offshore to India?
Cheers!
Unfortunately for these employees many other people with banking experience have been looking for those same jobs for years; the combination of bank mergers and outsourcing has led to a grim employment outlook for that sector.
A local bank branch I use (part of a large bank) has few Americans working in it; mostly Asians from the sub-continent, doing the work Americans won’t do for $3 per hour. The manager seems to be eastern European; her English is almost impossible to understand. I’m sure they’re all here legally; I don’t know why.
