Goldman Sachs Announces More Layoffs

October 24, 2016

Just one week after reporting its best quarter in more than a year, Goldman Sachs announced on Monday it axe another 20 employees – an extension of previous cuts.  So far this year, the firm has laid off at least 486 employees in New York - the most since 2009, when it shed more than 900 workers, according to layoff notices filed with the state.

 

Goldman also has laid off large groups of employees elsewhere, including 25% of its Asian investment banking jobs.  In May, the company announced it had cut 10% of its bond traders - just months after reporting one of its worst quarters since going public.

 

The Wall Street giant employs about 34,900 workers, down by 2,000 from last year.
