All these kids did was pose for photoshoots and answer basic, non-controversial interview questions. How is that a fire-able offense? Mandatory fuck HR
Yeah this was a good laugh but these guys getting potentially fired over simply being cringe would be ridiculous. How does HR let employees get sent to the hospital from overwork and MDs hit on analysts but guys can't be featured in harmless, goofy articles. Goldman does not have their priorities straight
Not to mention their General Counsel was heavily featured in the Epstein files and their HR signed off on it…
Anecdotal but maybe helpful insight into GS. I have a close friend of mine who was fired for going on a podcast and mentioning he works at GS after not having HR clear the public appearance. They’re ok with putting on your LinkedIn ofc, but any communication with external media sources is highly frowned upon and fireable. My friend legit only stated that he currently worked at the firm, making no mention of his day to day. He even had the interviewer immediately delete the podcast after realizing that the guy blasted his face next to the Goldman logo and claimed it was a “day in the life” recording. 100% was not, but I digress. They really only let super senior ppl make public appearances (think senior enough to fire everyone in HR for questioning them). Eg GS will put up with anything DSol, or the old General Counsel, said publicly - but, anything said by an analyst is immediately shot down.
Maybe that’s helpful, but that’s the dynamic(straight from my buddy)
Makes sense. They made D Sol himself give up his DJ career at the end of 2023 (right when work life balance stopped being "cool")
Appearing on Media is itself a mistake because it puts GS at risk. They don't want to set a precedent so that all of a sudden you have hundreds if not thousands of Analysts talking to Media about their work at GS, potentially saying stuff they shouldn't be saying.
I hope they all get fired.
This was so incredibly cringe.
Ngl if it was done better coulda lured even more ppl to apply to IB
Being cringe should not get you fired when that cringe is outside work and only very loosely references the firm. They can be socially mocked and should get a slap on the wrists for not running it by compliance but acting like a d**chebag is par for the course for junior bankers outside a magazine interview so not sure why this is shocking. What's most shocking to me in all this is that Celine makes suits for men.
They shouldn't be fired for a HR/compliance perspective, but should be fired just for the cringe.
Objectively they did nothing wrong.
I thought this was all hilarious
Gave finance guys a bad look imo. 24 year old kid (who looks like a total squid, btw) rocking a $90k Daytona as if he earned it. Not to mention, posing next to a PWC employee larping as a finance bro. Literally was just fuel for people to shit on finance kids - not that it really matters but just incredibly cringe.
Ok intern
I just noticed your in real estate LMAO, there's another forum section on this website for you guys bud
Friday night and you’re reloading your own WSO comments hours later. Christ almighty
There’s a girl at my bank who films cringe day in the life TikTok’s in our banks office and gives advice about how to get internships at our bank that could be taken as speaking on behalf of the firm.
Does she work at bofa
she doesn't film in the office. only to and back from
No it’s WSO’s favorite bank
I know one who coaches women on getting investor relations jobs so they can find husbands who work in finance.
I genuinely can’t understand how they thought this was a good idea.
how could you not think you’d get roasted by the entire Internet? There’s no upside to this shit.
Would
i dont think they will get fired for the cringe photoshoot itself (although it is cringe make no mistake), but it just really shows poor judgement, unnecessary vanity and just too much time on their hands lol. and even if they arent fired, could u seriously imagine being the dude that will want to vouch for these guys and give a return offer, when there are less ways to commit social suicide.
Even if they don’t get fired (which they should because in an industry where discretion is valued, the indiscreet have no place), they probably should change their names, leave the country and join the French foreign legion because no girl with google skills will ever fellate them:
