    Living it right now, my sister department was caught up in the Jeffery Epstien situation. It came to light a few weeks ago after our company settled for 290 million.

    I’m abandoning my success in this field to go back to school as a Nurse. Fuuuuuuck my company, and my field. Hoping i can be a benefit to humanity for a change.

        In short: it was criminal negligence with intent to keep revenue streams flowing. I work as a Fraud Investigator, our sister department handles higher profile cases such as this.

        Needless to say, the situation certainly faltered my trust in our processes, procedures, and integrity. So, I’m leaving lol. I dont have kids or anything so i’m able to make the leap into schooling

          good on you for moving on. it can be a tough call when actually faced with following your morals, or just forgetting it.

            I appreciate it a lot, its been a very hard decision and I’m worried im making a mistake. The largest concern is how to make enough money working part time while i study. Fortunately, i have a very supportive partner and without them i would have abandoned the prospect already

          Thanks for the response, I read the article but other than Jeffrey being a client of Chase, I don’t quite know what they did wrong. Were they booking the flights for free? How were they invoiced in the crimes and turning a blind eye to them?

            We handled his money for him while we knew what was going on. When the proedures inevitably brought the case to our department, our upper management and execs turned a blind eye.

            I couldnt tell you details,I would if i knew them. Chase operates under a very segmented structure that prevents information from bleeding into one department to another. I found out in the news first, then brought my concerns to my manager

              Well if they decided to settle for such a large number, they knew they were screwed and did something very wrong. Thank you!
