Pros

-great atmosphere -nice facilities, convenient downtown location (both offices in Toronto) -free food (pizza, cake, icecream, pop, beer, etc) -good benefits -Managements actually try to listen! -Good investment in the development of technology. -Exposure to some of the biggest hedge funds in the world -Competitive salary -Good Work/life balance (except maybe a day or two in a month) -One of the biggest companies in Hedgefund Administration industry -Good opportunity especially fresh out of university. -Hard works are appreciated and valued. -Friendly coworkers/sick parties -good overtime pay. It is very unfortunate that people only write negative reviews about this company but I had very positive experience with Citco. I feel like management actually is trying to make some positive changes to their employees and since the firm is so big, these changes can't be made over night.

Cons

-No transparency from Management (lack of communication) -Stingy to reward some of the best talents. -high turnover

Dear Operations Analyst, you note great career opportunities along the ability to grow your career (and salary). Seems like a good solid foundation. I hope in time you can avail of both of these opportunities and that you can openly recommend Citco as a great place to work.
