Goldman Sachs gives top bankers unlimited vacation days
CNN
Goldman Sachs, fighting a war for talent amid scrutiny of the bank's notoriously grueling work culture, is implementing a more flexible vacation policy to help staff "rest and recharge."
Senior bankers will now be able to take as many vacation days as they need, Goldman Sachs (GS) said in a memo to staff that was shared with CNN Business. And starting next year, all staff "will be expected to take a minimum of 15 days" away from work each year.
Bankers who haven't yet made partner or managing director will remain on a fixed vacation allotment but will be granted two extra days starting next year.
Hours after President Joe Biden touted its success during his commencement speech at West Point last Saturday, White House staffers learned that the temporary pier the military had just constructed into Gaza was falling apart. Four Army vessels had been beached, two in Gaza and two along the coast of Israel.
