Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. It is great to hear that you felt the training you received was helpful to your role. The cyclical nature of our business means that there are certain times of the year when people are extraordinarily busy, however we do try to balance that with policies and practices that support a healthy work life balance such as the summer flex schedule you noted in your review. Additionally, it is important that people feel that they are rewarded fairly for what they do, therefore we regularly benchmark to ensure that we remain competitive within our industry and regions. We are always looking at how we can improve so thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.

Pros

I like my team.

Cons

Lack of trainings (technical and soft skills). On the very few trainings available one can't really attend because of too much work. Management likes it when employees render too much OT which is a very very toxic culture. Not much focus on employee retention. Too much office politics. Not enough strong leaders!!! Not enough fun activities going on outside of work which makes it a very boring company to work in.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experiences with us. It is disappointing to read your review as we do invest heavily in training and development, at all levels of the organisation. I would recommend that you use internal communication channels to find out more about this and share any feedback you have in terms of what training you would find useful. We take all feedback on board to continue to improve and your feedback is always welcome.

Pros

Pay and benefits were great, employees looked out for each other, lots of fun perks and great office location

Cons

Bad working hours, working until late evening was just expected (otherwise you weren't doing your job). Upper management heavily favored certain people making life for the rest of the employees very hard. You have to threaten to quit to even be considered for a promotion.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review. It is great to see you list a number of positive comments while you were employed at Citco such as pay, benefits and the additional perks we offer to our employees. We are always looking for new ways to identify and promote talent at Citco. Which is why we were really excited to launch our new MyCareer program which made it a lot easier for employees to apply for opportunities within or outside of their business group. This also allowed employee’s to apply directly for promotion opportunities anytime there was an open requisition within their group. We are always looking at how we can improve so thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.
