Goldman's lavish spending on Blankfein’s post-CEO office sparks populist debate at white-shoe firm

Looks like a lot of people at GS are unhappy within the firm. Will be great if people from other banks can opine on whether this is the case there as well! Thanks.

In the last few weeks/months:

  • Goldman seems like a bad place to be

  • HSBC seniors complain about their firm

  • PiperJaffray seems to be a shithole based on what someone posted

  • A MoCo staffer was a dick to analysts

  • Unfortunately a poor young guy died at Lincoln.

This should be enough to say banking isn't the place to be but I bet my ass this year will have more applications worldwide than ever before.
