About the company
Goldman Sachs advises companies and governments on mergers, raises money for them by selling their stocks and bonds, and trades securities for big investors such as hedge funds and pension funds. It led Ford Motor's 1956 stock market debut, then the largest share sale in US history. Traders buy and sell stocks, bonds, currencies, and commodities for clients and lend them money, while bankers earn a fee on each deal they advise on or arrange. Its asset and wealth management arm invests for institutions and wealthy families and charges fees based on the money it oversees. The firm was founded in 1869, when it began brokering short-term IOUs for New York merchants, and it is based in New York City.

What believers are saying

What critics are saying
- AI is costing jobs: Goldman's October 2025 AI plan came with a "limited reduction in roles" and slower hiring.
- Expect five office days a week: Goldman reaffirmed the rule in 2023, and its CEO calls remote work an aberration.

What makes Goldman Sachs unique
- Traders outearn Goldman's famous merger advisers: trading made 57% of first-half 2026 revenue, versus 8% from advice.
- Goldman is Wall Street's top merger adviser: it earned $4.6 billion advising on 2025 deals, versus JPMorgan's $3.1 billion.
- The top prize is still partner: though public since 1999, Goldman named just 95 partners from 46,000-plus staff in 2024.
