Pros

The only thing good about Citco is the lax environment.

Cons

The company doesn't really care about the employees. There's a million directors who do nothing and get paid a lot and then there's the analysts and associates who do all the work and get paid next to nothing. Management is so shady and never give raises/promotions to those deserving it. There's absolutely zero growth within the company unless you get buddy buddy with higher ups. All they care about is the bottom line. Wouldn't recommend this place to anyone unless you just want to go through the motions for a salary that will just get you by.

Disappointing to read your review, but appreciate your taking the time to write something. Employee welfare is a keystone in Citco’s values and something we articulate through our benefits and healthcare offering to staff. Our culture has always been to promote from within, however advancement is based on merit and we’re sorry to see that you felt otherwise. While the reorganisation of some offices is in line with our global strategy to increase efficiencies that has been communicated over the past few years it is never easy when the day comes. We have noted your comments and will make sure it gets seen at the right level.

Pros

The only good thing about working here is the salary and the comraderie in knowing that everyone else also hates their job.

Cons

Inflexible working hours, boredom, micromanagement, slim vacation, TURNOVER IS OUTRAGEOUS, upper management and HR leaving the company, lack of transparency. Sit at your desk for 7.5 hours asking for work and nothing will come, 5:30 rolls around and you get 2 hours of reports to run.

Hi there - thanks for taking the time to write this review. Sorry to read your thoughts on this. We recognise that January to March is the busiest time of the financial year, and that our workload increases. Managing this workload can be challenging. Staff motivation and retention is hugely important to us. If you would like to discuss any aspect of your work in relation to the above we encourage you to reach out to your local HR team.
