Citco takes pride in the comprehensive benefits it provides to its employees to take care of their health and welfare (as well as their family). In addition to our competitive benefit packages, we offer generous time off policies, comfortable work environments, and a variety of perks such as soft drinks and coffee/tea, healthy snacks and special breakfasts, to name just a few of the things we do around the globe.

Pros

With the high turnover chances of promotion have slightly increased.

Cons

External hiring for mgmt positions Poor promotion strategy Stuck doing overtime while manager leaves. Jobs and knowledge moved to far east No communication from mgmt to staff Hire freezes globally and local mgmt not informed Person doing appraisal has no input over wages bonus or promotion, now a box ticking exercise. New employees forced to do Claritas and repay exam fee if they leave within 2 years When someone leaves full investigation into the reasons, not just arbitrary questions from hr.

Thank you for providing a review on Citco. We are always interested to learn how we can enhance the employee experience at Citco. We want our colleagues to achieve their career ambitions and be the best they can be and Citco invests heavily in training, learning and development at all levels to help to achieve this. Where possible we promote from within but sometimes, to grow the knowledge base of our teams, it is necessary to seek external expertise. We see this as beneficial to the team as a whole. I hope that in time you also get to realise your ambitions in our dynamic business.

Pros

Open to hiring fresh grads from private universities. Structured beginners training that might not prove so useful on the 'floor' but good for general knowledge. Had cross-over of roles.

Cons

Heaven or hell is based on which department and team you go to, and the funds your team is doing. Worst team to be is under a 'Yes-man". Generally going to SSC side is the shorter end of the stick in terms of workload. Stay if you can climb fast, look for alternatives if otherwise.
