In honor of the eloquent New York Times op-ed piece “Why I Am Leaving Goldman Sachs “ penned by the company’s former executive director Greg Smith – where he resigned from his post and in the process lashed out the “morally bankrupt” executives running the company – we are saluting all those disgruntled employees with the gigantic balls we all wish we had.
