I worked at Goldman Sachs full-time
Pros
Teams are from leading colleges across the country.
They try to practice a flat hierarchy and encourage it.
Pantries with coffee machines, food courts and even transportation is arranged for you.
Loads to learn in terms of soft skills, how to navigate people and management, great way to get a flavour of the corporate cultureCons
Severe cost cutting over the years, the additional benefits that were offered to employees have been downsized each year.
Work can be quite mundane, with little scope to expand working knowledge.
Your promotions heavily depend on how much your manager likes you, supports you etc.
Work-life balance is terrible in certain Ops teamsGoldman Sachs 2018-07-12 15:49 PDT![Goldman Sachs Logo]()

Working with the most talented people, which means you have the best way to improve yourself rapidly.
Curiosity and innovation is the core of company culture. You have to face new things every day. Fast learning skill is a must.Cons
Hierarchy, just as what people heard before. No balance between life and work.
