The Goldman Sachs Quarter Century Club Welcomes the Class of 2026

Jul 1, 2026

The Quarter Century Club (QCC), which celebrates colleagues who have been at the firm for 25 years or more, is welcoming 175 new members – bringing total membership to nearly 2,800 members, of which more than 1,200 currently work at the firm.

"I want to express our deep appreciation for all your 25 years of dedicated service,” Chairman and CEO David Solomon said in a statement congratulating this year’s inductees. “You are the reason Goldman Sachs is such an extraordinary place to work. You are model professionals for the next generation of leaders. You are talented colleagues and treasured friends, and that is something worth celebrating."

Reflecting on the 2001 environment in which inductees began their careers, David adds: “At that crucial moment in the firm's history, you showed up, you worked hard, you took care of our people, and you made a point to live out our core values of partnership, client service, integrity and excellence.”

“In a world that moves faster, where careers are increasingly measured in chapters rather than years, 25 years at one institution is an extraordinary achievement,” John F.W. Rogers, the firm’s executive vice president, stated. “It represents dedication, resilience, adaptability, commitment – and that exceptional people working together can achieve far more than one person can achieve alone.”

Class of 2026 inductees highlight the collaboration, pace, and opportunity that has defined their long-term Goldman Sachs career experiences:

“
I joined Goldman Sachs in interest rate derivatives because it was an opportunity to grow a then modestly sized business into a big value driver for the firm. As I found my groove, I realized that Goldman Sachs is an environment where you can truly express yourself and your talents, driving opportunities outside of the box. The most successful people here are doing exactly that—thinking broadly and driving opportunities across their divisions.”

Twenty-five years later, the markets are faster, more global, and more complex—but the caliber of our people remains unchanged. The standard of trust we build with the world's most sophisticated clients has never wavered.”
