Last year was challenging across groups including credit, equities, and investment banking broadly, said Paul Sorbera, president of Wall Street recruitment firm Alliance Consulting. “Many didn’t make budgets.”The latest cuts will reduce about 6% of Goldman’s headcount, which stood at 49,100 at the end of the third quarter.
