Goldman Sachs controversies
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Goldman Sachs, an investment bank, has been the subject of controversies. The company has been criticized for lack of ethical standards,[1][2] working with dictatorial regimes,[3] close relationships with the U.S. federal government via a "revolving door" of former employees,[4] and driving up prices of commodities through futures speculation.[5] It has also been criticized by its employees for 100-hour work weeks, high levels of employee dissatisfaction among first-year analysts, abusive treatment by superiors, a lack of mental health resources, and extremely high levels of stress in the workplace leading to physical discomfort.[6][7]
