Pros

The Goldman name on your resume! Nice coffee and tea services. Free dinner if you work 12 hours in one day.

Cons

It’s a slave ship. A meat grinder atmosphere that will destroy you. Many people come for the name and future job potential. Many leave after a few years after they realize it’s hell on earth. 60 hrs a week is the minimum and don’t expect market wages as senior management believe they don’t need to pay market since the privilege of working for Goldman is a form of compensation. Also, they stack rank people on a yearly basis and the lowest ranked person from your team will be fired. If you are a team of 5 geniuses but you happen to be the least genius one, you will be fired!
