Dear Colleague - Thanks for highlighting some of the formal and informal benefits of the Citco work experience, Overtime is a regular feature of our financial services roles given the busy periods we face with our work and client needs. However our compensation practices and time off policies work to balance that extra effort. Stay tuned for promotional emails in February for new training offerings in your location.

Thanks for your review. It’s great that you refer to so many positives: Our social environment, the nature of the work and the learning opportunities that it provides. The cyclical nature of our business means that there are certain times of the year when people are extraordinarily busy. We try to balance this with policies and practices that promote and support health and well-being. It's disappointing that you feel that progression is difficult. The principle of meritocracy is the foundation of career progression in Citco and so many people enjoy rewarding and fulfilling careers here. Perhaps we could be better at communicating progression opportunities and career paths. That's feedback that I will take on board and try to improve. Thanks again for this balanced review.
