I have read many books about Wall Street and have friends who work there and have always been amazed at how many firms seem to look up to and want to emulate Goldman Sachs. From the now defunct Merrill Lynch and Lehman Bros. and even such august firms as Lazard Freres, the old-school Paine Webber, and yeah even Citi Bank/Group, Morgan Stanley et al, they all seem to have this mystique -like view of GS. Some may be biased, but can anyone tell me what the frig makes GS such a "legend" on WS?

I realized a slow pace at work is really bad for me. A couple years ago I was experiencing burn out from my fast paced job supporting transactions, and believed by moving to a slower job in a lower cost area, I would be sailing off to the sunset. Wrong, I spend weeks following up with other teams, often times they forgot what we discussed, so I spent 50% if the time reminding them of the topics and next steps. I spend most of my time writing memos no one will read.
