Description
The Wall Street Journal recently published an article titled "Women Aren't Getting the Big Jobs at Goldman Sachs, and They're Heading for the Exits" (linked below). That same day, we were asked by our social media community whether our best managers were male or female when we were working at investment banks. Our answer? Male. We received HUNDREDS of messages from our community --- from mostly women --- saying their experience with female managers on Wall Street was overwhelmingly negative. So we wanted to have a frank, open discussion of these two distinct but very related topics in a public forum to discern what the nature of the problem is and to try and suggest possible solutions. We are joined by two amazing women for this conversation: Carissa Jordan and Nikki Boulukos, currently the co-founders of Benjamin Talks, a company on a mission to facilitate financial literacy for people of all ages starting with children. Carissa and Nikki started their careers in Fixed Income and Equities Sales & Trading at Goldman Sachs, and rose through the ranks before exiting for individual reasons we will discuss. This will be the first of many conversations with women ranging from the junior most levels all the way to the C-suite. Anyone working on Wall Street or planning on a career in the industry needs to listen to this episode.https://www.wsj.com/finance/investing/goldman-sachs-women-big-jobs-leaving-09112f6a Follow us on Instagram and Tik Tok at @thewallstreetskinnyhttps://www.instagram.com/thewallstreetskinny/
