Amazing brand to be associated with Smart people all around Rewards well, both monetarily and professionally Amazing infrastructure & transport facilities Flat hierarchy

Cons

Work is very demanding and stressful Poor work-life balance Demotivating as you get to work on outdated technologies No onsite opportunities as GS works like a product company Very tough initially for laterals to integrate, especially for those who are coming out of finance domain.
