Come work at Citco. Do you like looking over rows and rows of cubicles and seeing miserable, exhausted, nerve-shattered and frustrated faces? Come work at Citco.

Citco Response

Dear Colleague - the first quarter of the year is certainly one of our busiest seasons at Citco and we are mindful of the commitment our staff makes through these several months of long hours, tight deadlines and client demands. While it is the nature of many financial services firms, we very much appreciate the hard work and commitment of our staff. Managing the related stress takes stamina and perhaps a well timed vacation day when a rest is needed. If you feel you are reaching the limits of what you can handle, I'd strongly suggest you meet with your manager (or manager's manager) and/or HR to see what support can be provided to help you get through this tough period.

All the Hard Work and Nothing to show for it...

Business Outlook

Pros

Free drinks. Free beer (but it doesn't matter for some) Dinner after working till 9pm (which is quite often)

Cons

Management believes that you should have no life - only work. Manager will raise his eye brows every time you ask for time off (vacation, family) Management will raise eye-brows if you leave at 5pm - or 6pm. Should be prepared to stay till 7pm if you start at 9am. You can start as early as you want, management doesn't care....or appreciate. Your workload will keep increasing and your salary will stay flat. Be prepared to hear excuses from the company about not being profitable. Bonus or incentive is truly a joke. I was ashamed to tell my wife how much bonus I got (the only time we got it). She doesn't know to this day...and I don't intend on telling her. Company would rather put money on beer, snacks and drinks rather than bonuses across the employees. Citco believes that employees will be drunk enough after 5pm anyways to complain about the low salary and bonuses.

Long working hours. Low compensation.

Business Outlook

Pros

Culture is good with great colleagues.

Cons

Long working hours. No worklife balance. Glorified factory worker. Work keeps piling even though there were very high number of resignations. Pathetic bonus. Senior managements don't seem to understand how bad the situation is.
