Business Outlook

Pros

As a large organization with a tremendous amount of locations and resources, opportunities to work in other states in various departments are available. The organization also values work/life balance and encourages time off along with providing flexible working conditions.

Cons

Due to frequent restructuring at the senior management level, the strategy is continuously changing. Coupled with the various silos created from all the M&A, the lack of cross-communication can make it extremely difficult to share best practices and network with internal talent.

Business Outlook

Pros

the way employees are treated for personal time off. the pay is fair and upper management tries very hard to recognize outstanding employees in very trying times. there is plenty of diversity within all areas of the company. there is a lot of room for growth within the company. you can choose to move all over the country for promotions or lateral movement within citigroup global markets.

Cons

communication from upper managment is somtimes too late before there are rumors spreading throughout the company. changes are often made before going out to the field to get opinions from the employees that these changes will effect in a major way.
