Pros

Overall, great company to work for. Interesting projects to work on, and the opportunity to work with global teams.

Cons

Each time there was a change in upper management, the top priorities would change. Although, it does make sense to assess potential changes, and definitely cancel certain projects, it does not make sense to kill a project when it is ready to implement and the investment has been made, just due to the fact a new leader doesn't feel the value in the project.

Great benefits. Everyone is friendly and helpful. They do more than just pay lip service to work life balance

Cons

Like any job, the manager is the one that can make or break the position

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.
