Pros

Relatively new to banking, but have been here nearly 3 years. Overall great experience. If you are motivated and willing to step up, you will get noticed and rewarded. If you're looking to fly below the radar, this probably is not the place because people form opinions rather quickly and you can get stuck. But if you're willing to get out of your comfort zone and try new challenges, you will really stretch yourself, learn a ton, and be well compensated.

Cons

Not really a negative, but Citi is so large you are responsible for your career. You need to network and form relationships to move your career forward - no one will do it for you.

Citi Response

Thank you for your feedback on Citi’s culture. We do offer employee networks to allow employees across different business lines to better connect and share best practices. We also have formalized development programs for rising leaders at the firm. Citi is committed to helping employees receive consistent feedback on their performance and requires that each employee undergo a mid-year and end-of-year review with their manager. These reviews represent an opportunity for employees to advocate for themselves and work on a personal development plan with their manager. In addition to the reviews, high performers are given opportunities to take on special assignments. Again, we appreciate you taking the time to review Citi and thank you for your feedback! -Best, Citi Graduate Recruitment & Program Management Team

Bad Work Culture

Pros

Functions are specialized, with many layers.

Cons

My experience with the company was a negative one. Company culture was very political and vicious. You don't get rewarded for doing work, rather for playing politics and sucking up to your boss. The directors basically treat everyone else like peons, and don't care about firing employees, regardless of whether or not the job gets done. I don't recommend joining unless you want to be laid off without good cause.
