      Technology - Good place to earn money, but that's it.

      Pros

      Name recognition and compensation. If you're looking to get highly paid as a technologist for mediocre work, Goldman is the place to be.

      Cons

      Too much support work, too little software engineering. There is a lack of communication and knowledge of the systems. "Trial by fire" is how I mostly learn about things here. People don't know about the systems, so it's a "dig through the code" process here whenever there are problems. Not the place to be if your are a pure technologist. However, Goldman pays well for such mediocre work.

      Pros

      There is a great environment of meritocracy where everyone collaborates extensively. The caliber of people that work at Goldman is second to none. There is a noticeable difference in how efficiently things get done here compared to other firms. By being a part of the firm, you get a true understanding of why we are repeatedly the best on the Street. There are so many intangibles that set us apart and being a part of that is truly rewarding.

      Cons

      Longer hours is always a drawback but is to be expected in this industry.
