Just how many employees does Goldman Sachs have?

I watched the All-Star Game in a bar packed with men gulping $5 beers and women toying with $10 strawberry salads. The only signs of depression were on the faces of consumers who couldn't find a parking spot within a hundred yards of the establishment.
