Goldman Sachs Group Inc. plans to cut as many as 4,000 jobs as it struggles to
reach profitability targets, Semafor reported. 

The cuts may amount to up to 8% of the bank’s workforce, Semafor reported,
citing unnamed people familiar with the matter. Managers have been asked to
identify low performers, but no final list has been drawn up, the news outlet
reported. 

Bloomberg reported earlier this week that the Wall Street firm is aiming to cut
at least a few hundred more jobs as it restructures its struggling consumer
business and braces for an uncertain economy in the year ahead.





Goldman to Cut Hundreds More Jobs, Moving Beyond Routine Culls

Chief Executive Officer David Solomon has said he’s dialing back the firm’s
ambitions for consumer banking and signaled he’s reviewing other business lines
to manage headcount and limit costs. The latest cuts appear to go beyond the
firm’s annual exercise of weeding out underperforming staff, which was the focus
just months ago. 



Here’s Where Wall Street Firms Stand With Job Cuts
