This year, the Goldman Sachs Quarter Century Club (QCC) welcomed the largest class in the firm’s 156-year history – 370 new members who are marking this significant milestone in their Goldman Sachs careers. 

“From the people they have helped and guided, to the thousands of little acts performed over 25 years, every member of the Quarter Century Club has made the firm what it is today. It’s not just the duration of their careers, but the way they’ve defined their careers,” said Goldman Sachs Chairman and CEO David Solomon. 

John Waldron, the firm’s president and chief operating officer, is among this year’s inductees: “It is an absolute privilege to work at Goldman Sachs for any length of time, but it's a true honor to join the Quarter Century Club with such an extraordinary group of talented professionals. I want to congratulate my fellow inductees.”

John added: “Over the past 25 years, it has been wonderful to build real friendships with all of you and to work in the service of our clients at this extraordinary place. And I believe that if we continue to preserve and enhance our partnership culture, Goldman Sachs will continue to do great things and importantly we will do them together.”

John F.W. Rogers, executive vice president, and host of the annual QCC event, welcomed attendees: “As we reflect on our new members and their 25 years together, let us celebrate not just the achievements but the values that shape us all. Together with them, we celebrate the athleticism of our people that has created a vibrant and a resilient community.” 

The event not only recognized the new class, but convened Goldman Sachs colleagues and alumni from previous QCC classes to connect across divisions and regions of the firm.
