Pros

It provides opportunities for global experience, nice if you work in a good team. good brand name, establash contact all over the world/country as employees tend to move on after a few years. Senior management are great speakers,many are good leaders.

Cons

can be political; too big. At some point of my career ( after Mexico event), it was run by compliance.

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.
