If you're a developer be prepared to learn how to do QA testing as well since they dont want to hire enough testers Hybrid work model required 3 days in office, not even enough seating for everyone. Supposed to foster collaboration but you can barely sit with your team.

Pros

Hybrid schedule, supportive managers, opportunities

Cons

Once you’re in, comp basically plateaus. Layoffs are happening across the board, which tends to be the full-time culture of citi. The vibe is very much “run lean” until something actually breaks, and only then consider adding headcount. You have to be intentional about protecting your work-life balance, because the implicit expectation is that you’re always on—24/7, 365—without the support of a properly staffed team.
