at large, blue chip companies VP is a high level position with massive responsibility. even if the person doesn't directly own a P&L. they could have 300-1,200 direct reports

fine.

the avg f500 has like 70k employees. you could have hundreds of vps who are each responsible for 300-1200 people.

indeed. each of one of those hundreds of people has a high pressure demanding job. i'm not saying some xo'ers couldn't handle it, but it's not easy. in some ways harder than being a client services partner given all the insane extraneous bullshit you have to navigate on a daily basis

and many of these hundreds of people are people who arent particularly bright or aren't particularly hard working. the competition level to be one of hundreds of vps at a megacorp is nothing like making v100 equity partner. as some megacorp vp, it's not that hard to stay there and survive given that you're not exactly competing against the best and brightest

At the top end blue chip companies you absolutely are competing against the best and brightest. You’re also competing with people that have knowledge based and all skill sets in a wide variety of areas, not just law and sales (i.e., the skills needed to succeed as a law firm partner). Xo’ers just have a myopic worldview due to lack of real world experience

No. These jobs are brutally competitive and require very specific experience. There is some truth that you can age into them but that just really means nobody under 35 has the resume for this stuff.

That's way better than being the head of something that is important. If accounting fucks up, everybody is going to find out about it in a hurry. If procurement fucks up and overpays for shit, it's a lot more subtle.

At least before software automated everything in Compliance this was an area where a bro like me would have 200+ employees to answer for. Now it's more like 20 but they all make $200k v. $65k.
