Episode Details

Jean dug up the literal Day 1 handout she received as a Goldman Sachs analyst in 2010 – a yellowed sheet titled “Top 10 Tips for Success at Goldman Sachs” to share the 10 Commandments of Goldman Sachs. In this Part 1 episode we unpack the first five “commandments,” show how they still shape promotions in 2025, and remix them into actionable tactics you can deploy this week.

Why hit play

• Insider lore – Hear the wild onboarding mantra that had every first‑year paranoid about elevators – and why it still matters for your Slack DMs.

• Career accelerators – Jean and Cherie translate each vintage tip into 2025‑ready moves (think “wins folder” + headline‑risk filter).

• Pivot pathways – How one self‑assigned daily briefing launched Jean from fund‑of‑funds to consumer‑tech product exec.

• Part 2 cliffhanger – Rules 6‑10 drop later in Season 4; binge‑worthiness locked in.
