Was wondering if anyone could provide insight into the different Financing groups at GS? (Mainly LDN, but happy to hear other too)
Input around culture, hours, comp, exposure and reputation in the City/on the Street would be great

It's GS. That alone speaks for itself
ECM is really good over there. 2020 was the first time in 18 years they were not nr.1
DCM/LevFin: I can't really tell other than this is not GS "core" strength like M&A/ECM but I guess the GS brand can still carry you quite far
Thanks for the input. Indeed, the GS brand is very strong, but I guess I was more interested in getting som intel on culture etc. of each group
A pleasure. Take this with a grain of salt as it's an outsider's perspective:
GS seems kinda sweaty across all groups but what I gathered is that the financing group is a bit more chill. Of course, there are times when certain markets go crazy and then you definitely have M&A hours.
Do you have an offer there? Only someone in that group can tell you how it really is tbh
Cheers - that is my perception as well, after speaking to a former intern. I do have an offer, and got some further info through interviews but that will obviously be biased.
Appreciate the input!
Congrats! Can you please describe your interview process? Was it for FT or SA? I might have interview coming for this division soon so very interested
Hey was wondering what your nationality and your profile was? When is your interview too - i assume its for IB SA LDN?
