Pros

Citi’s overall compensation is competitive.

Cons

Most of Citi’s 1 and 2 star reviews I've read on this site are absolutely true. - Low diversity - Terrible work/life balance - The worst on-boarding experience - No documentation, training, or peers who can provide you information. - no manager 1-1s - No collaboration, teams work in silos, with no vision. - multiple contradictory decision makers. - EPMO and PMO adds zero value in this organization - ICRM is the worst of all. This unit alone adds more risk to Citi, possibly costing the firm 10 time more than any other bank , while bringing in no revenue. - no checks and balances. - unclear roles and responsibilities - no accountability and ownership - major lack of trust at all levels - no one seems to know why they do what they do. - Sr Management in the USA advise employees to just do what you are told. - numerous compliance courses to complete every month that no one seems to adhere to. - ICRM violates they own policies and HR is complicit. - the whole organization works like paper pushers

Pros

Salary is a great pro compared to the rest of the industry and the 3-day RTO program is great.

Cons

Management is a known issue; expectation do not meet reality and there is a firm misunderstanding of the systems and limitations
