A portrait, in Proustian detail, of a world and a mentality that is utterly alien, and should be infuriating, to most of us on Main Street.
-- Mark Gongloff, Huffington Post
A personal tale of one person caught up in a wave of greed, betrayal, and a complete disregard for the standards that had made Goldman Sachs the most trusted name on Wall Street.
-- David Siegfried, Booklist
[Greg Smith] did what we would all hope that our own banker would do: he spoke out publicly about something that was wrong.
-- Hamilton Nolan, Gawker
An insider's take on Goldman Sachs strikes a nerve....it provides a rare inside look into a career path to which many aspire: from nothing to Wall Street affluence. It will also be read because of its characterisation of Goldman's integrity. Where once it profited from helping clients prosper, the bank shifted, Mr Smith contends, into an entity that profited from clients.
-- The Economist
...Smith has written a field guide to the culture of Goldman Sachs and a fly-on-the-wall account of Wall Street on the skids.
--USA Today
The author's personal account of the many facets of daily life at Goldman Sachs gives his memoir the power of persuasion and conviction.
-- Kirkus
