Thank you for your review. Citco promotes the opportunity for learning and continuous development for all staff and it's great to hear that your experience echoes this. With regards to your comment on work timings I'm not entirely sure what you mean but think you may be referring to the certain periods when it's very busy and where overtime is required. Trust we do try to balance this with policies and practices that support positive well being. We also do review our pay practices regularly to ensure we reward fairly and in line with the local market.

Dear Anonymous - as noted, Citco provides a great training ground for new graduates through exposure to sophisticated global products and clients. Our staff are hardworking, smart and learn how to balance a full workload - skills that are essential in any financial services firm but may be challenging as junior staff learn them. There are busy periods during the month and the year and our staff will work some long hours during those periods to meet stringent deadlines and SLA's. However the experience they gain will be invaluable. We do our best to balance those periods with generous time off policies and other flexibility when it can be provided during the quieter periods. Thanks for your feedback.

Pros

- Leader in the Alternative Fund Admin space - Focus on excellent client service by providing services other companies aren't able to deliver (e.g. daily reconciliations, access to accounting system, complex pricing of OTCs) - Great exposure to all types of instruments, fund setups and multi billion clients

Cons

- Long working hours especially during peak periods and month-end period - Communication around global policy changes that are being implemented could be more transparent
