Good pay, good management, good corporate culture.
Good pay: You can get started with about £35k as a software engineer, with it rising to about £100k within 5 years or so. If you're unsure about a future in software, then I recommend the business analyst position. It's a nice balance between both of them.
Long hours. Very long hours.
You will routinely be expected to put in 70-80 hours per week. If they want you to come in on weekends, then even longer.
Life at Goldman is certainly very, very difficult.
Rebalance your salaries. The guys at the top are getting paid way too much.

Goldman Sachs Interview Questions
Goldman Sachs Interview Experiences
Software Engineer
HackerRank 2 questions, 2 hours. The questions were very difficult to answer. You could choose your programming language. I prepared as usual through coding websites, although this one was much harder than normal coding assessments.
Software Engineer
A coding round is followed by many technical rounds. The coding round contains MCQs and other coding questions, which were mostly easy. Many people will get selected for the first round of technical interviews.
Software Engineer
The interview process started with a phone screen, a CoderPad assessment, and finally a multi-hour onsite interview (this was for Marquee). Generally speaking, the people were nice, but I noticed that all of them seemed insanely proud of themselves
