Pros

A great learning environment. People tend to be very professional and are accountable to each other. Inculcate a meritocratic environment. Most of the Citibank folks here are extremely hardworking, committed and very professional.

Cons

With numerous changes, employee tend to be bogged down with one project after another. Can be subjected with long working hours. This can drive potential staff to competitors who pay at a more competitive rate and have better working hours/flexible options.

Pros

Opens. A lot of doors, a huge bank with real mobility. Great especially if you are young. And very global, which is exciting.

Cons

Can feel uncompetitive towards other bulge brackets at times, especially vs JPM, service and ops is incredibly painful, almost feels like you have to leave and come back to get paid market rate if possible at all. Its also IB vs everything else makes the bank feel two tiered.
