Funny how when you get your job at Goldman Sachs, the base of the pyramid transforms into your end of the year bonus.

...But because some god forsaken emerging markets division in Bangladesh didn't hit their quota. You get 40% of what you were expecting, and now you're nothing but an empty shell doused in the artificial light of your computer monitor. Searching for answers in the night. Clinging onto the CEO's reassurances that next year will be better... Emotionless. Soulless. Destitute.

But what about the McKinsey and BX internships?

And I would definitely put a GS FT role at the top of the pyramid. GS is love, GS is life. Blankfein is God.
