out the work by Scott Kim or
John Langdon.

Find out what people are saying about the now publicly-traded Goldman Sachs, and watch snobby lawyers debate endlessly about which is the "best" law firm in New York City. Mostly associates from the Salomon side left, I think because a lot of people were drawn initially by the Salomon Brothers', Neanderthal-like atmosphere. - Salomon Smith Barney insider to Rumor by pjammer |
