Business Outlook

Pros

average salary, decent benefits that start day one, used to have good reputation, a firm with cache, has long term future for who remains with firm.

Cons

gov't bailout, loss of reputation, having to sell one piece of citigroup that makes money (smith barney), mgt. not honest with rank and file, they chose to only tell you what they want you to know. HR is a joke. The systems in this place are crazy, it is a hodgepodge of different systems for bonds, stocks and mutual funds. I mean they still have paper after hours tickets, I mean who still has that.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good ability to move within the firm. Global reach. Still a top investment banking name despite everything...

Cons

Billions of losses, horrible morale, massive rounds of layoffs one after another that never end, and workflow that has been reduced to a tricke.

Business Outlook

Pros

hone your customer service skills, learn what you don't want in your next job. The work life balance is pretty good with this company. It is a great job for university students but there is a quick burnout factor for those employees looking to make this a career.

Cons

lack of support, countiuous layoffs, shut downs every few years, low pay, poor management, disgruntled employees, lack of consistency, low employee morale. All of the good managers seem to move on faily quickly and the ones that you would like to see move on seem to stay around forever. They do not seem to have much of a development plan in place for growing their mangers skills.
