How is the work/life balance at Goldman Sachs?

Work life balance is fine, No work from home. Little oversight from management

No work from home, terrible pay, no overtime just straight salary,

- systems, data - exposure to complex structures, cutting edge deals - fast paced

- only hiring from unis rather than experienced hires, resulting in herding mentality - poor on work life balance, no working from home and long hours - strategy really US led, resulting in frustration for Europe based employees

Good mentorship and relevant work

No work life balance and upper management is not helpful

You work with smart, hard-working people. A lot of the lower and middle class-level employees are genuinely great, driven people.

Senior management is not supportive. Very little regard or recognition for high performance, but there is very high scrutiny for any mistakes. Unclear promotion guidelines. The work-life balance and work culture are terrible. Expect little to no flexibility, and expect to work a minimum of 10 hours everyday of the week. Potentially several more per day depending on the team and time of year. The culture at times can also feel very full of itself - which is off putting at times. Overall, working here is not that great. It’s just a big financial firm at the end of the day. There are several other firms where you can still have a fulfilling career with better pay, culture, and work/life balance while still working with smart people.

Good work culture and work life balance is good

Career growth is not there

Some teams have good culture. People are great!

Lack of flexibility, long hours for a lot of people, pay isn’t great

* Top notch health benefits and offerings * Relatively high overall total compensation packages * A lot opportunities to connect with colleagues from other divisions and many speaker engagements/talks employees can participate in

* Health benefits are very expensive * No work life balance and very limited flexibility * Expectation to always be connected to work

Good Career growth Beautiful workplace Amazing environment

No work life balance when compared to other big companies

Good team, decent work life balance and great opportunity to learn

Nothing as of now. Can provide better health benefits

No particular benefits, work life balance is OKish in IT, but they are also underpaid and fighting with obsolete technologies

Bad work-life balance and toxic incompetent leaders, lots of pressure and long working hours while being underpaid, you are supposed to be stressed out 24/7, in short, don’t go there
