Goldman Sachs is a global financial services firm best known for investment banking, markets and trading, and asset and wealth management. Goldman Sachs advises companies, financial institutions, governments, and investors on deals, financing, risk management, and investments. The company also runs large-scale wealth management and alternatives businesses for institutions and high-net-worth clients. Goldman Sachs operates across major financial hubs and supports clients in public and private markets.

Goldman Sachs has offices across more than 60 cities worldwide, with major hubs including New York and other large regional offices across the Americas, EMEA, and Asia-Pacific. Goldman Sachs is widely run as an office-first employer, with some flexible working arrangements available by manager approval depending on role and location.

Goldman Sachs offers one of the most structured early-career entry points in finance, with repeatable internships and full-time analyst pathways across regions and divisions. The hiring steps are unusually well-documented for a firm of this size, and the company backs that up with formal training and broad benefits. The main limiter is outcomes: public signals show both strong promotion pathways and recurring performance-cycle cuts, with limited hard data on intern conversion and early-career retention.
