So interns are expected to stay out of the office from 12am to 7am on weekdays. That's great... Now they're only expected to be there 17 hours a day! But, during those off hours, does that mean that they can remote in and still work?

on weekdays. Very sneaky, Goldman. I guess weekends are wide open to work as much as needed, right? Gotta prep that big PowerPoint for Monday morning's meeting. This all reeks of polishing the optics and nothing to do with treating their interns with any respect.

  As of about a year ago GS IBD analysts and associates are required to be out of the office from 9pm Friday to 9am Sunday unless they are granted specific permission to work extra hours by the head of the group. It is stupid that the new rule makes people go home from midnight-7am. It would be a lot more aligned with the working hours of investment bankers if that were changed to a 2am-9am embargo. However, the optics would probably look bad; "midnight" sounds a lot more wholesome than "2am". So instead, summer analysts are going to have to be waking up at 5:30 or 6 to make it in by 7am sharp, which is going to absolutely suck for them.
