Or it could be experience speaking: I worked at one of these banks for a decade, and was distinctly unimpressed by the caliber of technology management.

You can't generalize your experience at "one of these banks" to all management at all banks.

Bizarrely, I'd rate the one I worked at as best in class as far as tech management goes.

To back this up, I can draw on the experiences of my friends and former colleagues across the Street, and a large number of hair-raising interviews at other banks that made me repeatedly wonder why I would trade in the devil I know for a dumpster fire.

At the end of the day though, "the best in class" is still not "good".
