      Good Pay, Rough Environment - Anonymous employee Citi Employee Review

      Pros

      My salary was excellent, especially considering the economic environment. There are a number of opportunities to advance, if you keep your eyes open for them. Management is surprisingly accommodating when it comes to taking time off.

      Cons

      Extremely high turnover - people can't stand the place, and quit often. Erratic management - mistakes that should elicit a panicked response don't, and minor mistakes bring about a world-class freakout. This is a cultural thing, apparently. Management changes strategy often. Be prepared to throw away months of work based on someone's whim.

      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.
