Pros

Learn about Hedge Funds and Finance Good Pay

Cons

No Future, very few people stay for more than 4 years and almost no one is over 40 except for a handful of senior managers. The job is a meat grinder the chews you up and spits you out (which is fine when you're 25, not so much when you're older).

Thank you for the feedback. Within Citco Canada we have over 1300 employees. Of those 1300 employees 20% are over the age of 40, and over 40% are over the age of 30. I agree that Citco is a great place to start your career, but we also have a lot of employees who have started their career at Citco and are now in Supervisor and Manager positions. We are always looking for ways to ensure that we keep top talent within Citco which is why we invest a lot of resources into our training and development programs such as a Tuition Reimbursement Program which helps support employees who are pursuing a relevant designation such as the CPA or CFA.

Pros

Its best to work here for a few years and gain experience elsewhere.

Cons

Company went from 2 days on-site to now 3 days on-site, i dont mind it but this company has low morale and all the employees are sick of this place now. If you want a high salary but no opportunity to advance this is the place for you. 80% of the company is senior level and no room for growth or promotional opportunities.
