Got a verbal offer from GS to join their compliance division. Mid VP role for 180k base / 85k non prorated bonus that’ll be given fully in Jan. Need some help to evaluate if I’m being low balled. From my research this seems to be 1st year VP comp at Goldman. I’m coming with 16+ years of total experience with 13+ years in financial industry.

Is it more than what you were making? Do you have a job now? Can you take a risk to wait for something more? It all depends on your situation.

Yes, base offer is 15% more than what I’m making now and bonus offer is more. Yes, I’m currently employed. long term, I want to join FAANG so might be a good short term gig...thoughts?

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I was told WLB is decent for this group during the interviews. It’s a small team of specialists IC reporting to an MD.

Lmao it’s WLB is cyclical at GS. Some days I get off at 5pm some days I’m on till 10pm. Work weekends twice a quarter. It depends on your group but would say overall the firm is a power house if you want real WLB would try Corp finance.

I used to work there in compliance albeit 8 years ago. Might be a different part of compliance and things may have changed but it wasn't a 9 to 5 job ever during my 7 years there. That being said it is a great company and I still have many friends there.

How was your comp? Year to year raise and bonus?

Btw, I forgot to mention location. This role is in NY.
