Pros

Some of the benefits were ok, but I expected better than that. Nice cafe and nice child care on site.

Cons

When a company tells you that they are going to be giving you a $1k bonus if you do a certain amount of work and you do. Then you DESERVE TO GET THAT BONUS CHK. I went up the chain of command ALL THE way to HR just to get the run around. I still NEVER GOT MY BONUS CHK.. THEY CAN'T BE TRUSTED!!!!!

Pros

- Full-time Work from Home. - Boss who means it when he says "I don't care where you work from as long as you get the job done." - Company 401k match is dollar for dollar up to 6% of your salary.

Cons

- 50% of employees have been here less than 5 years. - After promotion to VP 10 years ago, no rasies come with "lateral" moves at VP level. The only way to get more money is to get promoted to SVP or leave and come back. Mgmt has no qualms about bringing in people with less experience and paying them significanly more than people already doing that role. - Pension plan was dropped in 2009. Former colleague stated that "One year at Prudential and my pension was more than 10 years at Citi." - No matter what you do your raise and bonus are tied to the old collegial review. No matter what you've done if someone else does a better job of presenting his / her employees cases, then you lose. It's one of those places where if they don't like you and you mange to walk on water the response will be "Yea, but you can't swim!" - Stuck at bottom of VP scale, only stair-step raises, even after receiving exceptional ratings.
