  Actually could I reach out to you about the Goldman interview process?

  Not OP, but * Does the phrase 'vampire squid' ring a bell? * How about MDB1? culture

  They have a special term for staff that haven't spent their entire career at GS: "lateral hire". A friend joined as a lateral hire, and was only really accepted as an equal when he voluntarily gave up his five days paternity leave for his first born to bail out a project in crisis. Work life balance doesn't exist at GS. If you're happy to give your whole self to GS, work evenings and weekends and socialise with colleagues, you can do very well in terms of career progression and pay. If you want a life outside work, GS may not be for you.

  > Why? Goldman's seems to have become the pantomime villain of Wall Street. Some of it's justified, most of it's not. > I'm about to accept an offer next week Speaking as someone who has never worked at GS, congratulations.
