Pros

It is usually a stable company, but as of late it has not been so much. So, the reasons are going away fast. There is generally a comfortable work environment, lunch room in the building and mandatory breaks and lunches, which you do not get in a lot of companies. I would say citi is a good place to work for, but I would also look in other areas.

Cons

Chances for layoff, poor potential to move up. Often poor management due to the size of the company. A lot of unhappy employees due to reasons I stated above. Salary could be better and more on par with other companies.

Pros

Hybrid schedule, supportive managers, opportunities

Cons

Once you’re in, comp basically plateaus. Layoffs are happening across the board, which tends to be the full-time culture of citi. The vibe is very much “run lean” until something actually breaks, and only then consider adding headcount. You have to be intentional about protecting your work-life balance, because the implicit expectation is that you’re always on—24/7, 365—without the support of a properly staffed team.
