Job Title Inflation
I got an email from a friend of mine, and her signature now was Associate VP Consulting PWC....
Granted this woman is only 28, has only been working for about 3 years in the consulting field, yet somehow got this title.
I guess companies are doing this more and more in lue of actually paying more to their employees. Giving them better sounding job titles.
On the other hand the next company that hires my friend won't realize that she is a newbie in the world of consulting...
Anyways, I notice this phenomenon being more and more common.
My other buddy is a Production supervisor, yet he supervises himself only....LOL....
At my work we have 8 managers and 16 employees....1 manager for 2 employees....
Anyways,
Buyer Beware!

avp is a piss title at many big firms.
Q: Senator Obama, would you take the same pledge? No tax increases on people under $250,000?
OBAMA: I not only have pledged not to raise their taxes, I've been the first candidate in this race to specifically say I would cut their taxes.
