Anyone work for Goldman Sachs in NYC?

Question

as an associate or analyst and can offer some advice of what the work environment is like, and what to really expect. Have two degrees in non-business field and looking to come aboard.

Answer 1

I do not work for Goldman but I work in the financial services industry. Goldman is certainly one of the most prestigious firms on Wall Street. I assume you are asking about the hours and stress. From all accounts I have heard, the stress level is high and hours are long. Young analysts commonly put in eighty or more hours per week. I also hear the pay is handsome, but employees must be extremely dedicated to put in the kind of time and effort they require.
