Pros

Benefit time is amazing! I get tons of time off each year due to my tenure

Cons

Unrealistic sales goals, quick to take earned commission if you are .001% shy of meeting a goal, off shore agents monitor our calls and interpret things differently therefore causing us to get hit on call monitoring which results in negative scorecards and potential commission impact. No growth potential at Hagerstown location. Continuously closing depts and transferring to other locations. Closing buildings and minimizing the work area.

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.
