Pros

I can’t think of even one.

Cons

1. Very unprofessional at every level, even the management doesn’t carry themselves with any class or professionalism. 2. Very cutthroat environment. The word “team” is just a word. There is no such thing at Citi. It’s everyone for themselves. No one works together to accomplish a common goal. They don’t share knowledge, they don’t help one another. Everyone from senior management on down is very hateful and promotes a hostile working environment. 3. Managers play favorites and are allowed to do so. Citi hides their horrible business practices behind Florida being an At Will state. 4. They do not care at all about their employees. They send them 25 miles to other offices for moths and months at a time with no more pay, no anything. They expect you to work OT without so much as a “thank you” or acknowledgment for hard work. 5. Upper & middle management is the sorriest excuse for leaders than I have ever seen. I have no idea how Citi is still in business, let alone one of the biggest bank in the world. This company should be ashamed of themselves for what they put their employees through and what they expect them to tolerate.

Pros

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.
