Hi,
I am an incoming IB analyst at GS, and I saw that the policy to get professional emails on your phone now only allows iPhone or Google Pixel. Since 2022 Samsung is no longer supported.
How do you do if your phone is not supported, do you just buy a new phone ? Does GS can provide one or at least an allowance ?
I think it is mad that they make you bring your own device but only allows a very limited choice of phone (costing $1,000+)

During my Summer I remember that after an update some interns could not access the mails anymore on phones whose support had been stopped
There's no way GS is not giving you a work phone for FT lol.
Also BYOD sucks, don't do it.
Yes. No, they do not provide phones/allowances for this
Source: I had to buy a new iPhone just for that ;(
GS is known to be cheap, so you'll have to cough up the $1k necessary.
On the bright side you're working at The Goldman Sachs.
which companies/banks are known to be expensive? who treat you well?
