I had a close friend start his analyst stint at GS Ind NYC  - based on his experience, the team was an absolute sweatshop but has very strong dealflow and great exit opps.

Heard negative things about the group culture, but idk if I've ever heard of an Industrials coverage group having an exceptionally good culture at any bank...lol

Universal answer for every Goldman coverage group: strong deal flows, toxic culture, good exits, sweat shop

 

Above posters are an understatement. Avoid at all costs - worst group at GS in terms of culture and massive junior turnover issues

Source: 3-4 friends in the group who are miserable and want to quit everyday

 

SA here right now this group has been a living nightmare, seniors are intense and don’t give a f***k about the juniors and or whatever life they have outside the job. 
 

it’s not worth the exit opps or deal flow, you will actually go insane. 

 

Also currently a SA in the industrials group. You will be fucking miserable. If you have the option to choose another group or bank, I would. Not worth it at all. 

I have barely slept and am borderline having health issues because of this fucking group. Why live this way?
