The major con of working in Goldman is that there is a lot of legacy system that uses inhouse technology which is not supported anymore and has no documentation. Working with vendors on their old technology is also a hassle

Pros

Most of my co-workers are great, bright people. Overall the structure of the company is flat, which means you can reach out and speak to people from any level (up to a partner). The working hours are flexible and they respect personal arrangements.

Cons

The company could benefit from employing a 20% (fun-time) rule, similar to Google. I think many employees have good ideas for side projects which often get overshadowed by day-to-day priorities.
