Wall Street has suffered severe layoffs amid a dealmaking drought and shaky economic outlook.
Headcount is up in every division, not including thousands of First Republic employees onboarded in July.
Jobs have grown in every division despite the non-stop news about industry layoffs (think Goldman) and consolidation (think Credit Suisse).
It has also cut about 40 high-paying investment banking jobs, and about 1,000 jobs from its home lending unit.
The bank also beat Wall Street's expectations and has again become a challenger to Goldman Sachs' spot as No.
