When Goldman has NOT been the Golden Ticket
Goldman Sachs in widely considered to be the "golden ticket" of IB jobs -- if you can get a job there, it's perceived that job will propel you to either a great career at Goldman, or an even better job at Apollo, Blackstone, etc.
However, this obviously isn't always the case. Anyone out there have any experience -- either personally or though a friend/classmate -- where that initial Goldman job did not result in the career you anticipated, either for yourself or that other person? And if this was the case, why do you think that was?
I imagine a lot of this depends on whether the person left Goldman voluntarily or not.
