Pros

-Good benefits (although have been getting worse over the years) -Exposure to big challenges: if you can do it here, you can do it anywhere

Cons

-In the consumer area, very little opportunity for promotions/big raises. You need to come in at a good title/salary or you are doomed -Work environment very depressing- so big and full of silos that getting things done takes a small miracle every time. Overall strategy keeps changing

Pros

Strong global platform with exceptional exposure to complex clients, markets, and products. Citi offers significant opportunities to build an international career, work with highly talented professionals, and develop deep expertise in banking and financial services. The global network and breadth of the organization are major differentiators.

Cons

The size and complexity of the organization can create bureaucracy, fragmented decision-making, and lengthy internal processes. Organizational changes and frequent restructuring can also affect continuity, while navigating multiple stakeholders sometimes takes significant time and energy away from clients and business execution.
