Dear Former Colleague - appreciate you taking the time to provide some feedback both positive and constructive. Indeed every job has its tedious aspects - thank goodness most of the work at Citco is interesting, diverse and challenging. In regards to career plans - there are some pretty distinct career paths in our functions. However I would also note that our performance management process includes a career development section which we always encourage staff to complete with their manager. If you want to develop at Citco and are ambitious - you can join the hundreds of employees who have been promoted over the years and have grown by showing your managers that you are committed and are willing to do the work to develop your skills and supervisory capabilities. Anyone can make an appointment with their manager to start such a discussion.

Pros

The people here generally try to improve the work environment and processes in place to make it more efficient and a better place to work. Aside from the constant improvement, I've been put on a great team that works well together.

Cons

Sometimes the work can be a little overwhelming, and overtime is required to get things completed on time. The software that is used often has flaws, and the workstations are not very powerful they tend to freeze up a lot and have issues, computers are dated. Not very flexible with hours, work from home, etc.
