I interviewed with Goldman. I think I lot of people here are missing the point. It has nothing to do with the work. It's hazing pure and simple. Goldman has insane security and I wouldn't put it past them to leak the document on purpose because they like the image of being an insanely driven place to work. Do you have any idea how valuable it is to people that formerly worked there? "Oh wow! You worked at Goldman. I heard that place is insane. How did you survive?"
Goldman gets two things. First they get the reputation that people who work there are super human but the bigger payoff is incredible loyalty of the people who make it. You're going to get paid shit when you start and as you begin to pull away from the pack you're both going to see your competitors quit and your compensation rise. By the time you make it you've won and been rewarded for it. Now when some nosy reporter comes around asking questions what are you going to do? Are you going to put it all on the line or are you going to say, "F-U" and hang up as quickly as you can?
