Gosh! Now 3.5k also call manager!?!?

Is it market standard to have 5k directors now?

Nowadays titles totally don't reflect position & pay. Use to be only banks inflate, now others also doing.

My company's titling now look something like this after it got acquired by a US MNC

Executive - 1.8k+
Snr Exec - 2.5k+
Asst Manager - 3k+
Manager - 4k+
Snr Manager - 5k+
Asst Director - 6k+
Director - 8k+
VP - 10k+

Now I see many youngsters in mid 30s calling themself Snr Manager, very confusing...
