Pros

Nobody is watching your output or efforts and non-serious actors can also opt for disabililty to get approved for remote work upto 6 months and never face termination or layoff. Especially true about the data area in Finance.

Cons

Nobody provides direction, least of all the directors and managing directors hired externally since 2022, they are clueless and there is not much direction or guidance from the top of the house, either. They are hoping to wing their way out of the consent orders and regulatory actions with friendly overtures to the new administration and their new appointees at the banking regulatory agencies.

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.
