Wall Street Interns Are Using An App Banned From Middle Schools To Bash Goldman Sachs

It's intern season on Wall Street, and some of those on the inside (and outside) are taking to anonymous social media app Yik Yak to post about their experiences and to bash other firms.

<span style="line-height: 1.5em;"><span>Similar to an anonymous Twitter, Yik Yak gained notoriety after being banned from high schools and middle schools for cyber bullying.</span></span>

<span style="line-height: 1.5em;"><span>The app features different threads with topics ranging from Harry Potter, The Hunger Games, Mario and the Mushroom Kingdom. You get the idea-it's popular with the younger kids.</span></span>
