Here are the top Wall Street firms to work for, according to LinkedIn's users
4. Morgan Stanley
3. Goldman Sachs
What: A dream place to work for aspiring investment bankers, but also increasingly looking good for computer scientists, programmers and engineers. CEO Lloyd Blankfein likes to refer to Goldman Sachs as a "tech company."
The bank is changing how it hires (goodbye brain-teasers) and provides feedback to its younger employees. It also went through a period of "juniorization," where more younger people have been hired, especially in the operations, tech, and compliance units.
Perks: Expect five-star amenities such as a huge subsidized canteen, a gym with memberships that work like a progressive tax, and dry cleaner on site.

2. Deloitte
What: A New York-based auditing giant that provides accounting, consulting and tax services.
Deloitte, which has 225,000 employees, receives 1.9 million job applications every year. Its tech-infused services and scope of work has attracted those with STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) backgrounds. The company told LinkedIn that their employees are "challenged by interesting work."
Perks: Offers a "marketplace" featuring various perks, education reimbursement, and most importantly, sabbatical programs that can run up to six months for "personal or professional growth opportunities."

1. BlackRock
What: A New York-based asset management company that manages $4.7 trillion as of March 2016.
BlackRock has more than 12,000 employees, and 47% of them are based outside the US. Apart from its 130+ investing teams, the firm also has economists, data scientists and 1,300 engineers in the house.
Perks: The firm is big on employee development plans and employee engagement. For example, employees get to pitch ideas to senior executives at the two-day Innovation Summit, which helps spur new products for retirees and connect co-workers across different departments, according to LinkedIn.
