GS Industrials NYC vs EVR Tech Menlo Park
Two lateral opportunities on hand as an associate. Would love tech coverage but cant just simply pass on GS brand (and does not hate covering industrials) and NYC premium for potential optionality/career progression.
I’m A2A at lower BB. Thinking buyside/corp dev exit down the road.
Congrats on two great offers. Know people in both groups - EVR MP has been getting absolutely crushed and a bunch of its ASOs have left. Group heads make the bank a ton of $$ so HR let’s them get away with the brutal WFB trickled down. GS Industrials is huge and you can likely focus on tech enabled services as you start to specialize here. As you said you can’t go wrong with the GS brand. Also NYC and MP are two very different places - I would seriously think about if you’re more of a suburban or city dweller and your particular ties to each city. Good luck!
Just long hours in the group or bad culture too?
Idk about EVR MP but GS industrials is quite known for toxic culture and p sweaty hours even in the GS standard.
I would say it’s one of the worse groups at GS, if not the worst. It’s still GS, still NYC tho.
GS Industrials and don't look back.
Unless you’re dead set on tech or have personal ties to the west coast, I’d urge you to really think about if menlo park would be a good move for you.
GS Industrials arguably has the strongest deal flow within GS (you will do tons of sponsor sell-sides), which comes at at the expense of work life balance. Known to have among the worst hours.
Which did you end up choosing?
