Even a branch manager of a small bank is given a VP title but they earn only modest salary. Historically bank employees earn less compared to their counterparts in other industries. The reason was that even during bad times bank employees were not laid off, thus job security until they retire. Of course time has changed. VP title for bank managers is given so that if a customer wants to complain to the "top" guy, here he/she is, the Vice President of "Bank of America" will handle your situation.
