      Pros

      Large company with many different types of positions. Depending on your job, it’s relatively easy to transfer to other cities and maintain salary/employer history.

      Cons

      > The HR department is run by women who have made it their mission to keep men out of management positions. > Too many businesses trying to distribute their services/products through the financial centers. > Very complicated variable compensation plans, that change yearly. > Sales goals are NOT sustainable year over year. A great year must be followed by a bad year to reset your sales goals to an attainable level. > To many bonuses are tied to group effort which penalizes a top performer in a poorly producing financial center.

      Good Company to work for.

      Pros

      There is an excellent opportunity for advancement. Their training is very thorough, although some people tend to get left behind. In my opinion, most of those who do get left behind were not good fits for the job in the first place. Those that do make it through training, and the first 90 days of employment tend to be very successful. If you can tough it out in an entry level position you can work your way through the ranks.

      Cons

      As stated previously it can be a grind to get a chance at promotion. But like most jobs that's just the way it goes. Senior management makes attempts to give employee recognition, but a lot of the time it as seen as cheesy.

      World leading market franchise with chaotic executive management

      Pros

      Prestige, market position and quality of the work colleagues was a key benefit of working at Citi. The firm's market dominance in the corporate fixed income, equities and M&A markets allowed me to work on high-profile transactions with the world's premier clients.

      Cons

      Chaotic management environment. I was with Citigroup and its predecessor firm, Salomon Brothers, for over five years. While the management of the Investment Bank was dominated by executives of the former Salomon franchise, there were numerous executive changes, which coincided with a severe market downturn.
