On March 14, 2012, more than three million people read Greg Smith's bombshell Op-Ed in the New York Times titled "Why I Am Leaving Goldman Sachs." The column immediately went viral, became a worldwide trending topic on Twitter, and drew passionate responses from former Fed chairman Paul Volcker, legendary General Electric CEO Jack Welch, and New York City mayor Mike Bloomberg. Mostly, though, it hit a nerve among the general public who question the role of Wall Street in society -- and the callous "take-the-money-and-run" mentality that brought the world economy to its knees a few short years ago. Smith now picks up where his Op-Ed left off.
His story begins in the summer of 2000, when an idealistic 21-year-old arrives as an intern at Goldman Sachs and learns about the firm's Business Principle #1: Our clients' interests always come first. This remains Smith's mantra as he rises from intern to analyst to sales trader, with clients controlling assets of more than a trillion dollars.
From the shenanigans of his summer internship during the technology bubble to Las Vegas hot tubs and the excesses of the real estate boom; from the career lifeline he received from an NFL Hall of Famer during the bear market to the day Warren Buffett came to save Goldman Sachs from extinction-Smith will take the reader on his personal journey through the firm, and bring us inside the world's most powerful bank.
Smith describes in page-turning detail how the most storied investment bank on Wall Street went from taking iconic companies like Ford, Sears, and Microsoft public to becoming a "vampire squid" that referred to its clients as "muppets" and paid the government a record half-billion dollars to settle SEC charges. He shows the evolution of Wall Street into an industry riddled with conflicts of interest and a profit-at-all-costs mentality: a perfectly rigged game at the expense of the economy and the society at large.
After conversations with nine Goldman Sachs partners over a twelve-month period proved fruitless, Smith came to believe that the only way the system would ever change was for an insider to finally speak out publicly. He walked away from his career and took matters into his own hands. This is his story.
格雷格·史密斯,高盛公司驻伦敦的执行董事,2012年在《纽约时报》发表的专栏文章 “我为什么离开高盛”, 吸引超过300万人阅读。格雷格·史密斯于2012年从高盛辞职,当时他是负责高盛在欧洲、中东和非洲的美国金融衍生品的主管。他生于南非约翰内斯堡并在那里长大,毕业于美国斯坦福大学,2001年成为高盛的正式员工。工作的头10年,他在高盛纽约总部工作。目前定居纽约。
这本书出现在我对投行有些不一样看法之际,对我的职业有很大帮助。 我不想讨论本书中对于为何离开的价值观分歧的问题,高盛一直在那里,也有可能一直是那样运行的,其实作者离开的原因是因为产生了比高盛更高更远的追求而已。高盛已经无法与当年的他匹配。 从本书中我关注了很...

评分阿里上市,将马云个人成功学推到人们面前,让人们一睹阿里帝国掌舵人的风采。犹还记得网上一直流传马云关于员工离开企业的两个原因:一钱,没给到位;二心,委屈了。经过网络段子手再加工,变成一钱没给到位、二钱没给我位、三钱没给到位。一言以蔽之,无论是金钱价值还是自身...
评分看《我为什么离开高盛》这本书时,本来没抱太大期望,觉得不过是一本像《阿里传》这样的软文书籍,变相讲讲自己企业有多好,多金光闪闪。 但看到后半本的时候,发现不是如此。 作者开始细致地描写自己的失望和反思。 他供职高盛12年,忠诚、努力,像在圣殿中付出。 直到他发...
评分曾经和朋友讨论,如何才能将故事讲得生动,引人入胜。我想这本书就是一个很好的教材。 作者的表达能力非常强。看书的时候,我的脑海里能很清晰地刻画出书中描写的场景,就好像是我亲身经历一样。 直到目前为止,只有非常少数的人讲完故事后让我有这样的感觉。因为这个原因,我...
