Pros
Goldman Sachs has a good reputation. I was in Technology, and liked the fact that I was able to pick up some finance knowledge too. Also, from what I have heard, they consider sponsoring your MBA. You can get good experience in the area of interacting with users, gathering requirements, etc.
Cons
I did not like my co-workers. Many of them were stuck up and not helpful. Goldman Sachs does not believe in documentation, which sucks big time for a newcomer. When I tried to write some documentation, I was discouraged and was told that unit tests themselves are documentation (I have no idea how). Quality of technical work is not good.
