Pros

Flexible work environment if your manager approvers before the request is made to hr. The management is knowledgeable about the products and processes within Citi but are often hestitate to teach in the environment

Cons

Siloed work environment causes a lot of wasted efforts and resources. The business is still trying to figure out what it wants to be in the end state.

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.
