Pros

Career Opportunities, Decent benefits. It is a very large corporation so this is tons of opportunities for other positions in other divisions of the company and around the US and around the World. I have found that most branches of the company have happy employees which i think makes for a happier environment to work in. Management is usually good about letting employees take personal time to deal with life and personal issues. They also work with tellers if they have school schedules and are really accommodating to students. They also offer a tuition reimbursement program to help employees pay for college.

Cons

You have to meet sales goals, no matter what your position is at the bank. Unless you work in a support area, Such as IT or back office positions for processing. Sales goals get a bit strenuous at times especially during the slow times of the year. If you work as a teller do not expect to large bonuses because you don't. Personal bankers and Management get the largest bonuses. I feel that the least recognized position with the company would have to be the tellers and they do a lot of the work for the company over all. Just my opinion.

Pros

I joined Citi to travel and have moved two locations in the three years have been here. The place is amazingly diverse. Talented, hard working folks who generally know their stuff. There is name recognition and grudging respect in the outside world. Unlike other regional banks, respect for diversity is significant - no glass ceilings.

Cons

Smaller offices (like Dubai) are very ethnically driven and power centres depend on the ethnic background of the local CCO. Levels of competence vary dramatically and the place is top-heavy. Support functions, especially Human Resources are plain incompetent. While the organisation claims to have more programmers than Microsoft, one would never know - hence Tech and Operations are fossilised.

Pros

Branches worldwide so you can find career anywhere. Diverse opportunites. Numerous departments etc to find the right fit.

Cons

The negative press right now. Working for Smith Barney which was sold and then purchased by Morgan Stanley and the changes that brings.
